When you walk into a beautifully automated home — where the lights, sound, and entertainment respond to your voice or a tap on your phone — you’re experiencing the kind of lifestyle that Chad, founder of NJ Smart Homes, has been quietly perfecting for years.

In today’s competitive custom integration market, success is no longer just about delivering great installations, it’s about building a business that’s efficient, profitable, and resilient. Daisy offers integrators a powerful suite of resources designed to strengthen every facet of their operations, from technical support and proactive service to enterprise software, marketing, and workforce development.

At Hermary’s powered by Daisy, every project is rooted in expertise, passion, and a deep understanding of how technology enhances daily life. Few people represent that commitment better than Paul Foley, General Manager of Hermary’s, whose two-decade-long journey through nearly every role in the company is a testament to hard work, leadership, and vision.
