The Problem

IT Problems Are Costing You More Than You Think

Every minute of downtime, every security gap, and every frustrated employee represents real money walking out the door.

Reactive Break-Fix Is Bleeding You Dry

If your current IT support model means waiting for things to break before fixing them, you're paying the highest possible price for technology management. The average cost of IT downtime for small businesses exceeds $400 per minute. Between emergency service calls, lost productivity while systems are down, frustrated employees finding workarounds, and the opportunity cost of diverted management attention, reactive IT support is the most expensive approach to technology — even though it feels cheaper on paper because there's no predictable monthly cost.

Growing Cybersecurity Threats

Cyberattacks targeting small and mid-sized businesses have increased dramatically, with 43% of all cyber attacks now targeting SMBs. Without integrated cybersecurity protection as part of your IT support, your business is vulnerable to ransomware, phishing, data breaches, and compliance violations that can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars — or shut you down entirely. The average cost of a data breach for SMBs now exceeds $108,000, not counting reputational damage and lost business that follows.

The One-Person IT Bottleneck

Relying on a single IT person — whether internal or a freelance consultant — creates a dangerous bottleneck and single point of failure for your entire business. When that person is on vacation, sick, or leaves the company, your business has zero IT coverage. Even when they're available, one person cannot possibly be expert in networking, cybersecurity, cloud services, compliance, and every application your team uses. You need a team of specialists, not one generalist stretched impossibly thin.
