Most
computer consulting companies are making a huge mistake when it comes
to their small business engagements, because these computer consulting
business owners fall-in-love with the technology, at the expense of the
business opportunities. In order for your computer consulting company
to flourish, make sure that you understand the concept of virtual IT
and build virtual IT into every major business decision for your
computer consulting company.
Do you own or manage a computer consulting company? Would you like to
achieve greater small business success? If so, then get ready to learn
why most computer consulting companies get IT (Information Technology)
wrong and what you can do about IT.
The Problem: Why Most Computer Consulting Companies Get IT Wrong
Most owners of computer consulting companies make their jobs much
harder than need be. Why? Because these computer consulting business
owners fall in love with the technology… and view their small business
clients as a distant second priority.
However, if you get this part of “IT” wrong, you will doom your
computer consulting company to “clueless geek” status. It's crucial
that you understand one extremely important principle here: Recruiting
and retaining small business clients is your #1 computer consulting
priority. Keeping up with IT should never get in the way of the mission
of your computer consulting company.
In other words, don't get seduced by the hardware, operating systems or
applications. Fall-in-love with the business opportunities surrounding
how you solve your clients' biggest business problems with your
recommended IT solutions. That's the real mission of a computer
consulting company.
The Solution: Blend Computer Consulting and Virtual IT
To put this all in perspective with your computer consulting company,
you need to understand and embrace the concept of virtual IT.
Virtual IT is what allows your computer consulting company to function
as an extension of your small business clients' companies. Your
computer consulting company essentially becomes the outsourced IT
department for your small business clients.
As owner or manager of a computer consulting company in this role, you
will most likely become the de facto CIO (chief information officer),
CTO (chief technology officer), or IT manager for your small business
clients.
And just like any well-rounded internal IT department, your virtual IT
computer consulting business will need to provide, or arrange for, a
complete soup-to-nuts solution that includes services like help desk,
desktop support, network administration, engineering, security,
training, procurement, and asset management… because anything short of
the complete virtual IT solution will leave valuable computer
consulting money on the table.
The Bottom Line
Most computer consulting companies are making a huge mistake when it
comes to their small business engagements… because these computer
consulting business owners fall-in-love with the technology, at the
expense of the business opportunities. In order for your computer
consulting company to flourish, make sure that you understand the
concept of virtual IT and build virtual IT into every major business
decision for your computer consulting company. To continue learning
