Upgrade to SSD and Profit!
If you’re on my subscriber list, I sent you an email last night asking if you’ve ever installed a Solid State Drive (SSD) in a workstation or laptop.
The reason being, for the first time last week, I installed one for myself. To say I was impressed by the performance increase would be a massive understatement.
I think this is a really big deal. Really big.
Increase Revenues - Without Prospecting!
When looking for ways to get some additional money into our bank accounts, most of us have the initial impulse to think, “I need more clients.”
Now, getting more clients is definitely one way to boost revenues. But it’s certainly not the only way.
Another way – a faster, easier and much cheaper way – is to increase your income through your existing satisfied customers.
Here are 5 ways to uncover and claim some of the extra revenue that you might be leaving on the table.
Get Paid On Time!
Collecting receivables… Getting paid on time for services rendered… It’s a challenge to just about any service business that extends payment terms to their customers. And for us as providers of IT Support to the SMB market, our customers generally expect monthly invoices.
Now, even if you run a very tight ship, and are responsible enough to consistently mail all of your invoices out on the first of the month, it doesn’t mean in any way that your clients will be putting a check in the mail to you on the 2nd.
As a small business owner yourself, you’re going to have financial responsibilities of your own that you’ll be required to meet on a regular basis. Regardless of how hard you work to make sure that your receivables are sufficient for meeting your expenses, it won’t do you any good if your invoice for that hard work winds up sitting in your client’s “to do” box, for weeks or even months.
Fortunately, there’s a very simple solution for making sure that you receive payment for your services ON THE VERY SAME DAY YOU GENERATE YOUR INVOICE.

Convert Your Clients to Managed Services
To operate profitably, today’s Independent Computer Consultant must function on a Managed Service Model, providing proactive monitoring and remote support for a flat-monthly fee. But when so many of today’s small businesses are still accustomed to the outdated model of hourly support, it can be a challenge to convince them that preventing downtime through daily monitoring is less expensive in the long run than only having the consultant in whenever a problem occurs.
How do you make your case to your prospective (or current) small business customer that moving to a flat-fee, proactive model makes sense?
Convert downtime into dollars and your point becomes easy to see.
