Small business tech advice.
A clear picture of the tools you're using, what they're costing, where the workflow pain is, and where the security gaps are — so you can make better decisions without needing a full-time IT person.
What we help with
- Tools and subscriptions audit — a plain-English review of what software and services the business is paying for, what's actually being used, and where money might be wasted or duplicated.
- Workflow pain points — identifying where manual work is repetitive, where things fall through the gaps, or where a simple change would save meaningful time.
- Security gaps — checking for common risks: weak or reused passwords, no multi-factor authentication, staff with more access than they need, or sensitive data in the wrong place. Practical fixes suggested, not just a list of problems.
- Technology decisions — help thinking through a specific purchase, tool change, or technology question before committing to it. A second opinion from someone who doesn't earn a commission.
- Explaining what you already have — if you've inherited a set of tools or systems and you're not sure what they do or whether they're set up correctly, we can help you make sense of it.
How it works
You describe the business, the tools you're using, and the problem you're trying to solve. We reply with questions if we need more detail, then come back with a clear, practical assessment — not a long report with recommendations you can't act on.
Everything is done by email. We don't need access to your systems, accounts, or files. We work from what you describe.
Honest expectations
- We do not provide full IT support or managed services
- We do not offer on-site visits or emergency support
- Advice is based on what you describe — we can't see your systems directly
- We do not recommend paid tools unless free alternatives have been considered
- Complex situations may need a specialist — we'll say so when that's the case
The goal is a clear next step you can act on, not a dependency on ongoing consultancy.
Describe the technology situation in your business — what you're using, what's frustrating, or what you're trying to decide — and we'll give you a practical, honest view.
