Few People, Many Roles
As a small business, your company is growing and profitable, but you need to use technology wisely to make your small team as efficient as possible. Everyone in your small company does multiple roles and there are never enough hours in the day. There are many things that you can do to make the business as efficient as possible and to lay the foundations for a secure and stable IT and telecoms future – but it is all too easy to head in the wrong direction.
This is an exciting time in the life of a growing company, but also the time when over-complication of your technology solutions can cause you headaches today, and bottlenecks in the future. Whilst your next door big company manager neighbour tells you that you'll need expensive servers and networks to have a proper company infrastructure, the truth is that hosting in the cloud with a local provider such as Telefonix Voice & Data may save you lots of money and dependence without the fear of committing your IT processes into the hands of strangers.
Above all, don't commit your business to an inflexible IT infrastructure! You do not have to run up large capital expenditure bills to share data and get the most out of your employees. Adopt lean and mean - share calendars, share contacts, view each other's inboxes, share Word and Excel files, run simple database applications, and print to one printer, which can als receive faxes, and be used as a photocopier.
Many small startups and companies purchase IT and telecoms solution that fit their needs but quickly find out that their needs change. Business evolves, and any agile business will almost certainly not conform to a predesigned pattern dictated by IT and telecoms hardware rigidity. The trick is to make sure that your solutions are both flexible and scalable. When you need to be agile, IT and telecoms hardware, structures and processes will limit your ability to do so unless flexibility is a key part of the system.
Small Business Strategies
- Run your business email as a hosted solution, allowing you to share calendars & contacts, and only add a new mailbox when you actually need it!
- Do you actually need yet another server? A Network Attached Storage device can cost a fraction of a new server but do something similar enough.
- Setup your small office network to be reliable, resilient, flexible and backed up – save money moving forward by buying into the right technologies now!
- Ensure your PCs are kept up to date and secure, and be sure that all your antivirus and spam filters are always up to date.
- Mobile telecoms is a big source of over-spend – get on top of this straight away.
- Why not use rented telephony to replace a traditional in-house telephone systems for flexibility and cost-savings?
