Starting a business means a hundred things competing for your attention — and IT is usually the one that gets bolted on later, in a panic, after something breaks.
We put together a free checklist covering the ten IT essentials worth sorting out early: from a proper business email and a website that works on mobile, through to backups, cybersecurity, and having someone to call when things go wrong.

Why it matters
Most new business owners piece their IT together as they go — a bit of hosting here, antivirus there, backups "eventually." It works, right up until it doesn't. The real cost isn't the odd software subscription; it's the afternoon lost when a laptop dies with no backup, or the customer who leaves because the website was down when they tried to book.
The checklist walks through the ten areas most likely to catch a new business out, in plain English, with no jargon.
