“This is an exciting time to be with Protection 1,” Moreman said. “Explosive growth in our national account sector combined with the ability to provide same-day service and the removal of the auto attendant has us positioned to provide nothing short of spectacular service to our national account customers. I’m thrilled to be part of this dynamic team, and I look forward to contributing to the company’s continued growth in the national account arena.”
