Industries
A customer needs an answer, a shift needs to reach the stockroom, and a promotion needs to hit every screen before the next rush. All in the same afternoon.
Hiscall designs, installs and supports phone systems, unified communications, digital signage, CCTV and access control for retail stores nationwide, from a single location to a multi-store chain. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

Retail runs on communication moving in two directions at once, internally between employees and externally with customers, without either one slowing the other down. A cost-effective, unified system makes every one of those moments count toward a sale instead of costing one, and it has to work the same way whether you run one store or a dozen. Hiscall designs the whole path, from the phone that rings on the sales floor to the cameras watching the stockroom, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.
How it fits together
Every sale runs through more than the register
A retail sale depends on a customer getting a real answer, staff being able to reach each other without walking the floor, the store selling for you even when no one's standing at the display, and the stockroom staying secure and connected. Built as one system, all four hold up together. Built from four separate vendors, all four are the first things to break during a rush.
The call
VoIP and cloud-based phone systems, plus unified communication solutions, route a customer or vendor call to the right person so a sale is never missed for lack of an answer.
The huddle
Overhead paging and audio/visual conferencing keep staff coordinated between the sales floor, the back room and other locations, without paging the whole store over one question.
The floor
Digital signage, video walls and interactive displays turn a promotion or price change into something a shopper sees today, not whenever a new sign gets printed.
The stockroom
CCTV, access control and data networking protect inventory and tie every register, office and location together on the cabling underneath.
Why one team
What actually changes when one team owns the whole system
A store that buys phones, cameras and signage from three vendors owns the gaps between them too, usually the ones customers and staff notice first. Here is what that costs in practice.
| Where it counts | Hiscall | Separate vendors per system |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | One team, one schedule | Coordinated by you, across contractors |
| Support calls | A Hiscall employee who knows your store | Whichever vendor you guess is responsible |
| System integration | Designed together from the start | Bolted together after the fact, if at all |
| Multi-location consistency | One standard, repeated at every store | A different setup at every location |
| Everything else | Cabling, cameras, AV, IT, all included | Another vendor, another contract |
Built for retail's pace, not adapted to it
Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.
- Unified communication solutions. Connects staff across the sales floor, the back room and other locations without extra hardware at every site.
- Digital signage & video walls. Updates promotions and pricing across every screen in the store instantly, no reprinting and no ladder.
- Interactive displays & whiteboards. Supports staff training and planning meetings in the back room or the corporate office.
- CCTV & access control. Protects inventory and staff the same way at a single store or across a multi-location chain.
What we install
Every system in the store, from one team

Audio VisualRetailers we work with every week
From a single storefront to a multi-location chain, with the same certified technicians on every job.
- Single-location retailers. Phones, signage and CCTV scoped to one store, not sold as an enterprise package.
- Multi-location & chain retailers. One standard system that repeats cleanly across every store, with one point of contact instead of a different vendor per location.
- Specialty & boutique retailers. Digital signage and audio/visual sized to the space, without paying for capacity a small footprint doesn't need.
- Big-box & large-format retailers. Overhead paging, data networking and CCTV built to cover a large floor and a busy stockroom.
How we work
Five steps, and you know who to call at each one
Survey
We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place at your store or stores, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.
Design
You get a documented scope and clear pricing. For a multi-location chain, we design one standard that repeats cleanly across every store.
Install
Installation is scheduled around your store hours, not around us.
Train
On-site sessions for floor staff, managers and corporate teams, repeated as often as your team needs it.
Support
You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.
Local technicians, coverage across the Midsouth and beyond
Two Tennessee offices put a certified Hiscall employee close by. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-location chain costs you far less time than it used to.
- Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
- Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
- You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.
- Beyond our two offices. We also have employees based in West Tennessee and Kentucky, and we support customers throughout the Midsouth region and several nationwide.
