Let technology help you solve problems not create new ones.
The reason your technology initiatives and rollouts are failing is because you need a customized & comprehensive technology strategy tailored to your business.
If you continue to re-use strategies designed and intended for others :
- you’ll continue doing manual and redundant work across multiple systems
- you’ll migrate from one system to another only to discover some of the same system issues along with new ones
- you’ll overspend by implementing solutions that do more but require more staff or stricter business procedures than make sense for your business at this time
- you’ll overspend on a system built from scratch when you could have made customizations to an existing platform
- you’ll stay locked into a system that affects your future decisions and limits the speed and versatility of your growth
- you’ll lose know-how and eventually customers when you have employee turnover because the knowledge leaves with the employee.
Creating a technology strategy seems difficult and time consuming, but we’ll make it easily understood and modular.
As small business owners and entrepreneurs, you started your business to deliver a product or service. It was not your intention to also become an expert in the technology field unless those are the services and products that you offer. But in today’s business world, you need to have a technology strategy for offering your products and services to your customers. You must also use technology to manage the interaction with your employees and vendors. Leaving these decisions up to the vendors or making it based on the recommendations of peers who aren’t familiar with the technical needs of the systems, your internal processes, or your long-term goals is a recipe for disaster.
According to Gartner, 83% of data migrations fail or exceed their budgets and schedules. Most business owners are not aware of the different functions within a technology company and often mistake the responsibilities of a consultant with those available to them via technical support. Technical support is there to solve your minor issues and point you in the direction of instructions which are most often intended to be interpreted by trained professionals and not the end user. This leads to frustration, lost productivity, and unexpected costs when issues arise and the business lacks ready access to technology professionals who understand their systems and their business functions.
What if you had access to a group of professionals who understood your systems, your business, and could make it as easy as 1, 2, 3 to execute your strategy.
1. Build a strategy that leads you from where you are now and allows you to scale with ease and with a well-defined purpose
2. Cut through the clutter of apps, platforms, and devices to find the one that meets your needs now and leads you toward the future.
3. Use the technology to make the administration of your business easier to manage and its systems easy to understand.
