Often small-business leaders think that cyber criminals have bigger fish to fry. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, cybercriminals often target small organizations because they often have the weakest defenses and are more likely to be susceptible to a security breach.
The smallest of businesses has often taken the position that technology is a necessary evil rather than a strategic investment. More are realizing the flaw in that logic and are moving to more proactive, managed models to ensure that their systems are up and running, secure and there is a strategic roadmap in place to keep them ahead of the curve.
Forward-thinking small business leaders are already embracing the hybrid workplace and are using it in some cases, as an opportunity to recruit fully remote staff regardless of geography. With the right technology platform and collaboration tools in place, this is not only possible, but it means that small businesses can compete for staff globally.
Small businesses that make the right technology investments will have the edge in competing for customers. They know that doesn’t happen by accident and they value and budget appropriately for a continuous tech evolution that aligns and supports their business plan.
