Why Oklahoma Bodyguards and Private Security Officers Should Look for Threats Via Facial Expressions, Emotions and Body Language


Why Oklahoma Bodyguards and Private Security Officers Should Look for Threats Via Facial Expressions, Emotions and Body Language

            Bodyguards and private security officers can face a wide variety of threats from a number of sources.  From wayward ducks to homicidal maniacs, many threats abound.  It is the responsibility of the Oklahoma bodyguard or private security officer to remain on constant vigilance for these potential threats, and to proactively assess each situation he or she encounters.  Oklahoma Judicial Process Servers www.OklahomaJudicialProcessServers.com examines how bodyguards and private security officers who take care to watch body language and emotions can often fare better than those that do not and keep both themselves and their clients safer from harm.

            Watching an individual’s facial expressions is vital.  If an Oklahoma bodyguard sees that a person’s smile turns to a look of rage with his or her eyes widening, this could indeed prove to be a dangerous situation.  This is especially true if the individual leans forward or otherwise makes any move toward either the bodyguard or the client.  Bodyguards in Oklahoma and elsewhere should closely monitor any changes in facial expressions or body language/movements. 

It is also always imperative for Oklahoma bodyguards to keep at least five feet of space between potential attackers, the bodyguards and his or her clients.  No one should come within five feet of the bodyguard or client, unless those individuals  are on a preapproved list of “safe” people that the client has provided beforehand.  In some cases, this allowable amount of space should certainly increase, depending upon the danger levels.  Never giving a potential attacker the opportunity to make an unmonitored move that cannot be countered is vital to a client’s safety.   

Sometimes would-be threats have dangerous expressions on their faces to begin with.  At other times, they may make a move toward a gun or even have their hands in their pockets.  Bodyguards need to consider who is doing what and when.  Is a potential attacker communicating with anyone by cell phone, two-way radio, etc.?  Who could be about to make a sudden move?  What possible motivations might people have which could affect their actions?   These are all vital questions for those providing private security to consider.

Bodyguards and those providing private security guards should undergo training in the field of lie detection, which includes learning about body language and emotions.  Doing so is one of numerous ways in which Oklahoma City bodyguards can help keep their clients safe from harm.  Granted, there are numerous other aspects to properly protecting people.  Oklahoma private security and bodyguards who are consistently and accurately analysing possible threat assessments will find that it constitutes an ongoing and sometimes difficult task, but it sure beats getting hurt or even killed!

The Changing Future of Oklahoma Process Servers’ Job Security in Ten Years and the Need for Occupational Diversification


The Changing Future of Oklahoma Process Servers’ Job Security in Ten Years and the Need for Occupational Diversification

            It goes without saying that technology has changed our world in numerous ways.  An increasing number of students of all ages are studying online.  More consumers at the checkout counters can go through the process without too much assistance.  In fact, greater numbers of people are now even shopping from their homes and offices instead of in large stores like Wal-Mart and Target.  These are only a few of a plethora of examples of how technology is rapidly changing the lives and with it the careers of many professionals worldwide.  This also holds true for those who work as process servers in Oklahoma and elsewhere.

            An Oklahoma City process server, within the next ten years, may find himself or herself without a job.  That is right: with changes in technology, process servers may find that they no longer have a job.  Many process servers in Oklahoma City, Edmond, Yukon, Moore, Norman, Tulsa, Mustang, Piedmont, Lawton, and elsewhere have heard about how humans will eventually get served when they make a bank withdrawal, etc.  Of course, this should come as no surprise to Oklahoma process servers.

            With the increasing use of technology and the complete lack of privacy our world is embracing, everyone will soon know who did what, when, where, what they plan to do in the future, and where they are at any given moment.  This will not even require someone to live in a small, gossip-filled town, either.  It will and indeed already is taking place on a much larger global scale. 

Many E-mail programs such as Gmail and Yahoo!, as well as major social media sites such as Facebook, require the linking of a phone number with each account.  With an increasing number of people using cell phones with GPS tracking capabilities, tracking each person’s whereabouts is getting easier to do.  Many search engines and E-mail service providers are keeping records of all information each person has searched for and when, as well as comprehensive logs of E-mail communications and online conversations.  This, of course, is a process server’s worst nightmare – well, sort of.

            In the short run, all of this technology bodes well for process servers and Oklahoma City private investigators who use skip tracing to locate people – especially those who go from one county, state, or country to another.  There is a plethora of information out there just waiting for Norman, Oklahoma process servers and Oklahoma private investigators to utilize!  However, with the good also comes the bad, and the same kinds of technology that are helpful to process servers right and private detective agencies now will likely evolve and make the long term prospects for a process server much bleaker. 

Unfortunately, process servers in Oklahoma County, Canadian County, Payne County, Tulsa county, Cleveland County and others will not be the only professions that will suffer.  Other professional fields simultaneously held by process servers in Oklahoma, such as those who serve as mobile notaries, document retrieval specialists, etc., are already slowly beginning to disappear as more goods and services become available online.  This is why Yukon, Oklahoma process servers need to diversify the types of services they offer to meet the needs of their clientele.

Oklahoma Judicial Process Servers www.OklahomaJudicialProcessServers.com offers a very wide array of services.  This includes process serving, notary public services, bail bonds, private investigations, document retrieval, bodyguards, polygraph examiners, expert witness testimony, visa services, deception experts,  document translation, private security, and lie detection.  By offering a diverse number and type of services, Oklahoma Judicial Process Servers has added a cushion to its company’s overall profile.  As some services (i.e., notary public) eventually become obsolete, there are other services which the company can still perform.  Of course, this alone is not enough. 

In addition, all process servers and private investigation companies need to continue to expand into new fields, as they become available.  Over time, the demand for various fields (i.e., cyber security) will arise.  With these fields come the need for different education, training, marketing strategies, equipment, etc.  Process servers and Oklahoma City private investigators who embrace these newer areas first and form the best companies to service these needs will thrive well. 

It is important to remember that much of what many people have seen on Star Wars: The Phantom Menace www.StarWars.com but have written off (i.e., cloning, laser guns, battle droids, etc.), is becoming more of a reality each and every day.  Cloning has already begun, smaller “smart drones” are used more to search out potential battle areas, etc.  While all of these things are unlikely to happen tomorrow, they will come into play much more often as time passes.   

Fortunately for those already in the fields of process serving, document retrieval, notary public services,  polygraph examiners, etc., the end of these professions as we know them is not coming tomorrow.  Indeed, some areas like private investigation, while they may change in style and technique/method, will likely be around for some time to come.  However, for Oklahoma process servers, mobile notaries, and document retrieval specialists who do not plan to retire soon, anticipating which fields will change and how best to adapt to this changing technology will become increasingly vital.

Why Oklahoma Private Investigators, Mobile Notaries and Process Servers Should Join the Better Business Bureau


Why Oklahoma Private Investigators, Mobile Notaries and Process Servers Should Join the Better Business Bureau

            The Better Business Bureau (BBB) can provide numerous benefits to Oklahoma private investigators and process servers.  Oklahoma Judicial Process Servers www.OklahomaJudicialProcessServers.com, which has Oklahoma process servers, private investigators, deception experts, notary public officials, private security, document retrieval specialists, bail bonds, expert witnesses, bodyguards, and mobile notaries, is a proud member of the Better Business Bureau of Oklahoma City for many reasons.  Indeed, the Better Business Bureau is helpful not only to professionals in fields such as these, but also to others in a wide variety of areas that provide goods and/or services.   

            One of the biggest benefit that an Oklahoma private investigator can gain from joining the BBB, is knowing that potential customers are more likely to view his or her company as trustworthy and honest.  A process serving company in Oklahoma City, Edmond, Moore, Norman, or elsewhere in Oklahoma is really only as good as the service it provides.  High quality service helps process servers garner a praiseworthy reputation in the industry. 

In addition, potential customers who see the Better Business Bureau’s logo on the door of an Oklahoma private investigation company, are more likely to believe in its commitment to quality and ethical standards.  Firms can proudly display this logo on their websites, on store windows and doors, etc.  The commitment to excellence that process servers and private investigators must make to obtain it gives Oklahoma private investigators the extra reputation boost they need to succeed.  Clients often trust members of the Better Business Bureau more than other process serving and private detective agencies, too.  But the benefits for Oklahoma polygraph examiners, mobile notaries and others do not stop there!

As everyone knows quite well, America loves its court system.  The population as a whole loves to sue doctors, our spouses, other businesses, and sometimes even our own kids.  Even the most reputable Oklahoma private detective agency or process serving company is not immune from getting dragged into court.  However, Oklahoma notary public companies, expert witnesses, etc., who are members of the BBB have an extra chance to resolve matters outside of the courtroom.  Customers who are familiar with the BBB’s complaint system can file a complaint instead of going right to court.  This can often help to effectively reduce the number of expensive lawsuits, lawyers, court costs, service fees, and more for everyone involved.

These are just a few of the numerous benefits of the Better Business Bureau.  Oklahoma process servers, private investigators, notary public officials, polygraph examiners, bail bond companies, private security companies, and others can surely benefit from becoming a part of the BBB.  In fact, one can easily find Oklahoma Judicial Process Servers’ Better Business Website location at http://www.bbb.org/oklahoma-city/business-reviews/process-serviceers/oklahoma-judicial-process-servers-in-oklahoma-city-ok-90029867.  All reputable Oklahoma private investigation and process server companies should give serious consideration to joining the BBB as well.
