# Small business IT

Small businesses need IT that works, without paying for a large support contract. I help you get the basics right and explain what's been done in plain English.

## What I can help with

- **Email on your own domain:** set up properly, so your messages don't end up in spam.
- **Shared files:** cloud or office storage, with sensible permissions.
- **Backups:** automatic, tested, and kept somewhere a ransomware attack can't reach.
- **Security basics:** two-factor sign-in, password managers and updates.
- **Office Wi-Fi:** reliable coverage, with a separate network for guests.
- **New staff and new computers:** set up correctly the first time.
- **When someone leaves:** closing their accounts and keeping access to your data.

## Where to start

If you're not sure what state things are in, ask about a basic review. I'll look at your backups, accounts and network, then give you a short list of what to fix first.

If a problem is beyond what one person can properly handle, I'll say so.
