Daisy Expands to Naples: Clive Daniel Home Automation, Powered by Daisy
Daisy continues its expansion across Florida with the launch of Clive Daniel Home Automation, Powered by Daisy, in Naples. This new franchise is set to redefine luxury home automation in the region, bringing seamless, intelligent technology solutions to homeowners and designers. At the helm of this exciting new venture is industry veteran Tyler Nary, whose extensive experience and passion for smart home technology make him the perfect fit to lead Daisy Naples (CDH Automation).
A Journey Rooted in Expertise and Community
Tyler Nary’s career in custom integration began over a decade ago as a technician for a small AV firm in Naples. Over the years, he has worn many hats — programming, sales/design, and management — earning certifications in Control4 and Lutron. His deep understanding of smart home technology is matched by his dedication to the local community, a quality he believes is just as important as technical expertise.
“Knowing my products is important, but understanding and serving my community is just as vital to me,” Nary shares. His leadership at Daisy Naples is rooted in this philosophy, ensuring that every project prioritizes both cutting-edge technology and exceptional client experiences.
Introducing Daisy’s Premium Support Service: A Game-Changer in Home Automation
When asked which of the many innovative Daisy solutions Tyler is excited to bring to the Naples market, he said, “That’s an easy one — Daisy’s support service! No other offering compares to it. It provides comprehensive care and exceptional customer service, all delivered at a white-glove service level,” Nary explains.
Daisy’s support service sets a new standard for home automation support, ensuring clients receive proactive maintenance, priority service, and ongoing system optimization. This unique approach eliminates common frustrations with smart home technology, providing a seamless experience for homeowners.
Staying Ahead in a Rapidly Evolving Industry
To lead a successful smart home business, staying ahead of industry trends is essential. For Nary, this means actively engaging in trade shows like CEDIA and InfoComm, which provide insight into the latest innovations and best practices.
“My first Control4 class was truly a turning point in my career — it was when I realized I had a natural skill set for understanding the pillars of automation,” he recalls. This passion for continuous learning is a driving force behind Daisy Naples’ commitment to delivering cutting-edge solutions.
Advice for Newcomers to the Industry
Having navigated the complexities of the custom integration industry, Nary offers a simple yet critical piece of advice to those just starting out:
“It’s a demanding and fast-paced industry, so you have to be ready to learn and adapt — not only to the market but also to your clients' unique needs.”
This adaptability, combined with technical expertise and customer-centric service, forms the foundation of success in the smart home sector.
A Leader Focused on Relationships and Innovation
Reflecting on his career, Nary takes pride in the relationships he has built with clients and colleagues. His achievements — including certifications in Control4 and Lutron, as well as overseeing successful projects from design to installation — have shaped his leadership approach.
“As I lead this new chapter with Daisy Naples (CDH Automation), I’m committed to blending innovation with personalized service to drive growth and exceed client expectations,” he says.
Beyond Smart Homes: Family, Cooking, and Nostalgia
When he’s not immersed in smart home solutions, Nary cherishes quality time with his family. “Being a family man, I love getting down on the rug to play with my kids whenever I can — and I also enjoy cooking for my family!” he shares.
When asked about a piece of technology he couldn't live without, Tyler didn’t hesitate. “I’d have to say my Lutron lighting system. It’s become such an essential part of our daily routine — automating schedules, enabling voice control, and creating customized lighting scenes for our gathering spaces. Now that we have it, I can’t imagine life without it!”
While modern technology has enhanced everyday life, some older devices remain unforgettable. When asked if there’s a piece of tech he misses, Nary reflected, “This one might sting a bit, but I’d have to say the VHS player — for all the memories it holds. Whether it was owning tapes, recording cherished moments, or renting favorites from the local Blockbuster, it’s a nostalgic piece of technology that truly defined an era.”
Looking to the Future
As Daisy Naples (CDH Automation) opens its doors, Nary’s vision for the future is clear:
"As we look ahead, my vision is clear: growth, innovation, and success — not just for myself, but for all of us. I see new opportunities, stronger collaborations, and a future where we continue to break barriers and achieve more than we ever imagined.”
With his leadership, expertise, and passion for smart home innovation, Daisy Naples is poised to become a premier destination for luxury home automation in Southwest Florida. With an exciting new chapter unfolding, Daisy Naples (CDH Automation) is set to bring smarter, more intuitive living to homeowners and design professionals in Naples, blending luxury with the future of home automation.
