Brighter sales of products in jDome series have increased significantly during
2015. The Company recently signed a several new contracts, among others, with
the municipalities of Växjö and Robertsfors. The success means Brighter sales of
jDome products so far this year, in terms of revenue, has increased by 200
percent compared to 2014. In order to meet the large demand Brighter started to
recruit new sales representatives.
Although Brighter has been very successful with its sales efforts regarding
jDome there is significant market potential, which means that the opportunities
for growth are very large. According to Company estimates there are about 2,000
homes for the elderly in Sweden and about 5,000 in the Nordic countries. If you
look at the global potential it is enormous.
- Until now, Sweden has, naturally, been our main focus. But we have started
developing the other Nordic countries in parallel, and we believe that Denmark
is the most interesting market at present. But we are not satisfied with this,
the next step is to prepare for the expansion beyond the Nordic countries, which
means that we will open up a gigantic global market for jDome, says Truls
Sjöstedt, Brighter's CEO and founder.
The increase in demand for jDome’s products is steady and today Brighter cannot
attend to all of this demand. Therefore, the Company is now in the process of
recruiting new resources in the sales organization.
- Currently we have time to work on only the requests we receive in the dementia
segment, but there are so many more treatment segments and health care
facilities that demand our product. With a larger sales force, we will
increasingly be able to utilize the potential that we see for jDome’s different
products, says Truls Sjöstedt.
During the year jDome has been part in a number of pilot projects. The findings
of a project in Västerås was published earlier this fall in a report by the
Swedish Agency for Participation - "Welfare technology and environmental
adaptations" (in
Swedish) (http://www.mfd.se/globalassets/dokument/publikationer/2015/2015-2
-valfardsteknologi-och-miljoanpassningar.pdf). The report highlighted some good
examples in special housing and day activities, which included jDome. The agency
also released another report that recommends jDome - "Technical developments in
the care of people with impaired decision-making ability" (in
Swedish) (http://www.mfd.se/globalassets/dokument/publikationer/2015/a-20151
-teknisk-utveckling-inom-vard-och-omsorg-om-personer-med-nedsatt
-beslutsformaga.pdf).
- JDome products have an incredible impact and the positive mentions from the
Swedish Agency for Participation has increased the interest even more. It is
amazing to see that jDome adds so much to the users, their families as well as
to the staff. With these recommendations and the positive feedback we receive
from our customers, we are confident that we will see continued sales success in
the future, says Truls Sjöstedt.
