The Security Guards & Executive Protection Fix Kit
Built for security guards, armed guards, bodyguards and executive protection agents.
The widest documented gap in this lane isn't between two companies — it's between two tiers of the same trade. This kit finds where the money leaks in your own work and gives you the steps and the words to close each one.

The 6 leaks it covers
3 you can close it · 2 the other side owes it · 1 a pro decides
- License fees, renewals and training paid out of pocket and never trackedWhere to look first: List what you paid this year for your guard license, renewals, required training, and replacement cards. Keep the receipts.Keep it from coming back: Calendar every renewal 30 days early and ask about reimbursement before you pay.You can close it
- Guard who never compared your pay to in-house or higher-tier security workWhere to look first: Look at the BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook page for security guards on bls.gov. It shows median pay by industry.Keep it from coming back: Check the BLS industry figures and local in-house openings once a year.You can close it
- Unarmed guard who doesn't know what an armed license is worth in your marketWhere to look first: No trusted public number exists for the armed-vs-unarmed pay gap, so get it from your own market. Ask your employer what armed posts pay compared to your post, and whether they cover training.Keep it from coming back: Ask about armed rates and training reimbursement at hiring and at each review.You can close it
- Guard on a government site who never checked whether a prevailing wage appliesWhere to look first: Ask your supervisor whether your site is a federal, state or city contract.Keep it from coming back: When you start at a new site, ask right away whether it's a government contract and get the schedule number.The other side owes it
- Guard paid with no view of what the company bills the client for your postWhere to look first: You usually can't see what your company bills the client, and no public source shows those rates. Work from what you can see. Look up the security guard wage for your state or metro area in the BLS wage tables (OEWS) on bls.gov.Keep it from coming back: Check your area's BLS wage once a year before your review.The other side owes it
- Nothing set aside from independent or event guard payWhere to look first: Separate your independent or event jobs (paid with nothing withheld) from your regular W-2 paychecks.Keep it from coming back: Move the set-aside the same day money lands. Check your tax account against your income once a month.A pro decides
Free: one full leak from this kit
No sign-up, no email. Here is leak 1 of 6 exactly as it appears in the kit, so you can see what you get before you buy.
License fees, renewals and training paid out of pocket and never tracked
You can close it- List what you paid this year for your guard license, renewals, required training, and replacement cards. Keep the receipts.
- Put your renewal date on your calendar 30 days early. Renewing late can cost a late fee on top.
- Ask your employer whether they pay for or reimburse license and training costs.
- Give the receipts to your tax preparer. Whether any of it can be deducted is their call.
Your part: Renew it yourself, send the request, and talk to your preparer about the receipts.
TO YOUR EMPLOYER OR HR: Hi [NAME], My [LICENSE TYPE] renews on [DATE]. The renewal and required training cost [AMOUNT]. Does [COMPANY NAME] reimburse license and training costs for officers? If so, what do you need from me - receipts, a form? Thanks, [YOUR NAME] [EMPLOYEE ID]
Calendar every renewal 30 days early and ask about reimbursement before you pay.
What this kit can't decide for you: Deductibility is the preparer's call.
That's 1 of 6. The other 5 come the same way in the kit: steps, words to send, a habit to keep each one closed.

Questions people ask
Is an armed license worth it?
Find out what it's worth in your market. The kit shows how.
Should a prevailing wage apply on my site?
On some government sites, yes. The kit shows what to check.
What does the company bill for my post?
Most guards never know. The kit shows how to ask.
What it can't decide for you
This kit works from your own records. It doesn't give legal, tax, licensing or financial advice, and it never tells you what to charge. Where a CPA, attorney, insurer or state board makes the call, the kit says so and gets your records ready for them.
