Attention Consumers...

We wanted to say, "Attention Small Business Owners" but, they never listen anyway...

They do however listen to consumers and with social media now they can't help but listen, but in order for them to hear you they need to be called out first...

So we are here to call out all small businesses. Oh, and if you make less than a billion a year, you're a small business.

The only difference between the lot of you is that one is just smaller than the other ;-)

Just recently we read an article from InfoWorld:

Introducing the 'Treacherous 12,' the top security threats organizations face when using cloud services...
http://www.infoworld.com/article/3041078/security/the-dirty-dozen-12-cloud-security-threats.html

These are the future threats that IT concern themselves with now, coupled with the threats of yesterday and today...

We'll tell you that the history we have in Electronics it's always the same, people will spend 1,000's of dollars on equipment, but nothing on security to protect it...

Their expression is absolutely priceless everytime when they say, "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS JUST HAPPENED"...

The balance that is needed in business and all business for that matter is with the security developers and product developers...

You'll need moderators between the two to help with communication, but team meetings monthly, moderators optional ;-)

Software developers need to manage both a security team and a product development team to keep their contingency clauses intact...

The market is so wide open for any business right now it's laughable that it's not taking off more :-D

The internet brings life to the small town, so start thinking shipping connections ;-) and build yourself a runway and start receiving air shipments...

Amazon just leased a bunch of Boeing Jets to deliver products, coupled with UPS and FED EX will be, WOOOOO, sorry just losing our minds with how much potential small towns have over Large Cities...

Better Fuel usually, local harvest, homestyle cooking with hometown personality and feel...

See that's the beauty all small towns have over cities...People don't go to France for Paris, nonono, it's the tranquility and beauty of the cobble stoned villages that stretch across that land of wine and nothing but time...WOOOOOOO, sorry, lost our minds again thinking about the POTENTIAL!!!

Small Towns build a receiving area, focus on security and throughput, build up local home town look that built America and reinvent her, go jiggy with it mannnn/womannn/humannnnn :-D ;-)

Cheaper storage costs, regional cutoffs, lower taxes, local local local look and feel...

America got HUGE by Gas Stations, well, build a Gas Station, but instead of cars you'll be doing planes as well and anything that flies...carflies...

Think Electric because people will want to travel from state to state in their solar powered plane to check on quality control...

Truck Deliveries are not the future, it'll be plane, boat, train into the cities, which will save on the environment and peoples health exponentially...

Anyway, off subject, look, if the gun manufacturer can be held responsible for a death, what do you think if you lose someones data in the cloud...that wouldn't be good for you...

We're all for computers being sold for more money these days and should be, because they're being built with new technology at an energized and increasing rate...

As we said, it won't matter how much they spend, they won't secure it so that is where you local PC shops can excel in the market right now with a total solution for the customer...

Any computer you sell will have to have a total security and backup solution for customers already in place and all the way to the UPS...

You have to build in a security solution in every piece of software that comes out from now on to protect you from yourselves, and will give you street cred for one that looks out...

You have the ability to build multiple stories of business right now with all the potential that is just sitting out their waiting for someone to help them...

They're begging for it and to beg for things now is so yesteryear, especially when you have an Internet...

All you need is a Shipping and Receiving Warehouse with a  Runway that can handle any commercial and small aircraft...

It's expensive to build in cities and companies like Amazon need Huge Warehouses to hold their clients products in for better/closer shipping methods...

Like we said, the future is Airplane, Solarplanes, Carplanes :-D seriously, you small cities that have airports already should get your internet fast and ready and a local Starbucks or Equivalent or Alternative...TEA ;-) and sit back and watch the money roll in...

Chinese tea is the best tea in the WORLD, uhuh, the best, and because why class...it's because they have the best climate for Tea uhuh, India doesn't have the best climate for tea, that's China...

Caffeine is bad in the doses people are drinking it in now, and are causing all sorts of problems like inflammation, skin defects, unneeded nervousness and twitching in people...

Loose tea shops are the future...what's that...don't think so...well look at it this way, South America is where the Best coffee comes from and where Howard Schultz makes all his money off of you :-D

Well South America doesn't drink coffee, it's true, the most popular drink in South America is...Yerba Mate ('er-buh-mah-tay)

Yerba Mate has a lot of Caffeine in it, but is the staple you'll need to compete with Coffee drinkers, just make sure you only serve loose Tea, bag tea is the leftovers of good tea, the seeds and stems :-D

Neither here nor there, just another niche' market that's begging for life...

sidenote: It's "actually" :-D actually...actually faster to prepare than coffee, literally :-P and the myth is in the steep...

BROAD BRUSH GOING ON HERE BROAD BRUSH INDEEDLEYDOOOO...

Go all nostalgic with it and modern at the same time with building up the small town feel by rebuilding era specific car models with newly redesigned electric solutions, it can be done it's a called a conversion...

Being Green doesn't have to be just an ideology, you're reinventing yourself while staying nostalgic and loyal to your roots...

You're trains could even be electric while maintaining the nostalgic look all the way to the steam coming out of a stack for visual effect, but faster than the old coal and diesel trains of yesteryear...

People from the city are wanting the amenities of a small town, but they need the feel of modern conveniences like environmentally fast and friendly transportation solutions...

Cloud Software developers are popping up all over the places, but the problem they have is they can't afford the servers it takes to go online...

Moses Lake Washington has the right idea when it comes to reinventing themselves for sure and is a good model to learn from:  http://www.cityofml.com

Farming has tapered off a bit, so let those lands redevelop naturally while building these services to put your town on the map...

Chevy Chase had it right when he said, "it's all ball bearings now a days" but it's all the, "IOT" of things now a days Boss....Where's Fletch...

Get online and get it on time with a side of lime ;-) and bring back the home town feel with an Airport :-P

Meanwhile, back on subject, you have to hold these small businesses to higher standards when they buy computers for their business...

All we see is an owner buying a computer online, they bring it in, they plug it in and the first thing they check is if they are online, anything else doesn't matter...

They just need to get to their cloud server/application/program for their business and don't care about security AT ALL...

No backup, no security settings set or maintained, no malware, and you just willy nilly give them all your sensitive information thinking they must be secure if they have a software...

The buzz word is "Cloud", oh, you on the cloud...YEP, cool...that's it :-D no are you secure, is my data safe, just cool you're on the cloud...

You need to protect them from themselves while protecting you in the process...

We have been to more companies than we can count, and almost every place disregards security and backup due to more cost...

The sell is a total solution, there is no need for guessing anymore, all environments have been made already, all that changes is the venue...

A, B or C will suit your needs, and a don't worry, you'll have a we'll have your back feeling as you walkaway knowing a positive solution is in place already...

All solutions have Backup/Security/1 Year Remote services, onsite is 1 hour discount for every hour first hour is always an hour regardless if you're there 15 minutes or 60 and includes drive time....

Your prices will go up, your fees will go up, your profits will go up, the sides of your mouth will go up, so get up and start it up because they need you...and that's a fact!

Just a song before I go...
