When you come across a business that is growing and their e-commerce is driving a large part of this growth, it's time to take stock and prepare the ground to minimise the growing pains.
The most frequent analogy we use for these cases is the garden you and I might have, which without frequent maintenance and upkeep from a gardener can quickly fall into disarray after many years and will need intervention.
Migrating emails infrastructure like a shrub that has outgrown its decades-old pot. Relocating to Google Workspace and improved security. Migrating the website from shared hosting with ad-hoc performance to a modern and fully managed platform. Implementing 2FA and improving the security throughout the office.
Alongside these maintenance-but-necessary objectives comes the strategic visionary input. Understanding stock control, understanding the offerings, reviewing ways to automate the cookie-cutter approach at scale of selling to trade while also expanding the offering to high-end customers.
This is an ongoing relationship and the fractional nature ensures that small businesses are able to access advanced support and digital strategy. Sadly, the reality of today means cyber criminals no longer only target larger businesses due to the low costs of cyber attacks, and small businesses are increasingly at risk from cyber threats and blackmail.
