If Your Nashville IT Provider Isn’t Asking the Right Questions… Maybe It’s Time to Move On

If Your Nashville IT Provider Isn’t Asking the Right Questions… Maybe It’s Time to Move On

When you think about IT services, you probably think about the problems. You think about the time the office printer broke, or the time a bunch of computers got infected with a virus, or some other tech-related catastrophe that ended up costing money and downtime.

This isn’t all that strange; very few people think about their plumber until the shower is backing up. Few people think about their insurance provider unless they are filing a claim or paying a bill.

That’s how a lot of IT providers operate. Even though their goal is to get you into a contract so it becomes their responsibility to handle everything related to technology, they still function on the precedent that IT issues are expensive, so you’ll pay to avoid them.

But what if IT services weren’t like insurance? What if your business could actually profit from your technology? That’s what I want to talk to you about today.
