What B2 Services does

B2 Services Inc is a privately held broadcast equipment rental, sales, and technical support company founded in 2003 and headquartered at 3818 West Burbank Boulevard in Burbank, California. The company rents and sells professional broadcast gear — including Red One MX and Red Epic digital cinema cameras, Avid Media Composer and Final Cut Pro editing systems, HDCAM-SR/HDCAM/DVCPro-HD decks, Apple Mac Pro and MacBook Pro workstations, Avid ISIS 5000 shared storage (up to 144 TB), Quantum LTO-6 tape drives, monitors, and audio equipment — to film, television, reality, documentary, and online video productions across the greater Los Angeles area.

The company's core service model combines short- and long-term equipment rentals (with daily, weekly, and monthly rate tiers), new and used equipment sales, and 24/7 phone-and-email technical support including delivery and on-site setup. Configured editing bays are offered as turnkey workspace solutions. Software revenue is generated through resale of Imagine Products media utilities (HD-VU, P2 Log Pro, ProxyMill, ShotPut Pro, PreRollPost, UP) on a one-time license basis. Distribution is direct and regional, with delivery coverage spanning Burbank, Glendale, Santa Monica, and surrounding LA production hubs; go-to-market relies on field sales, phone quotes, the company website, and Facebook/Google+ engagement.

The business operates with 1-10 employees under apparent founder-ownership (primary contact: Bill), with no disclosed outside investors, parent company, or institutional backing. The website carries a 2015 copyright and references legacy technology (Mac OS 10.5-10.7.5, Avid Media Composer v6.0), suggesting limited recent reinvestment in either digital infrastructure or technology refresh. The company's competitive position is anchored by its Burbank location and full-service delivery/support model rather than proprietary technology or scale.
