How your IT service provider can support you and your small business

To celebrate Small Business's, we want to share how your IT service provider can support you and your business to grow. At PAAC IT, we specialise in empowering small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with comprehensive IT support that aligns with their goals. Whether you're a micro-business or a company looking to scale up, our tailored services provide the expert guidance needed for sustained growth.

Supporting Micro Businesses and Solopreneurs

For one-man bands and solopreneurs, starting a business often feels like you're expected to know it all, even if you've come from a corporate environment with a dedicated IT department. As your IT service provider, PAAC IT steps in as your trusted technology guide, helping you lay a solid IT foundation so you can focus on your business.

Our services include:

• Strategic technology reviews: Quarterly reviews to align technology with your business goals
• Collaboration tools setup: SharePoint and Teams to boost productivity and teamwork.
• Automation and efficiency: Streamlining processes to help you do more with fewer resources.

When you're starting out, you might feel isolated while trying to deliver excellent service to clients and onboard new customers. I understand this first-hand because I've been there myself. The turning point came when we brought on a Service Manager, freeing me up to focus on the business rather than just working in it. We help our clients achieve similar breakthroughs.

Bringing in Processes to Growing Businesses

For businesses with up to 10 staff looking to expand, bringing in processes is crucial for smooth and repeatable operations. At PAAC IT, we ensure your growing team can work efficiently with:

• New starter forms: Standardised onboarding processes for consistent employee experiences.
• Training: Technical training so new hires are equipped to hit the ground running.
• Off boarding processes: Securely and professionally handle staff exits while maintaining data security.

Once a business reaches 10 employees, making things up on the fly isn't effective anymore. We're here to help you create processes that grow with your business.

High-Level Guidance for Larger Small Businesses

As businesses grow from 50 to 100 employees, we ramp up our high-level guidance. This includes:

• Server need analysis: Identifying the right server solutions to support your growth.
• Cybersecurity maturity assessments: Enhancing cybersecurity measures to protect your business.
• Device replacement cycle: Efficient device management and replacement planning.
• Business continuity planning: Creating plans to keep your business running smoothly during emergencies.

We bring enterprise-level expertise in processes, policies, and technology to small business owners who might not otherwise have access to them.
