Let me start with something most IT professionals won't admit:
IT is an Unavoidable Burden.
You didn’t start your business to deal with servers, software, or cybersecurity. You started it to solve a problem/serve customers/build something. But the reality is you can’t run a business without technology.
So, here’s my promise after 38 years in this industry.
I’m not here to make you love IT. I’m here to make it understandable and work for you. To lower the coefficient of friction that IT can have on a business. Smooth things out.
That means: Technology that works, doesn’t get in your way, and helps you reach your actual business goals. Not the fanciest solution. Not the cheapest. Not the most complicated.The most effective.
Here’s How This Works:
I don’t need you to know tech terms. I need you to know your business.
Grab a piece of paper (or a napkin—I’ve literally done this on napkins).
Make three columns:
STOP – What’s not working? What’s driving you crazy?
KEEP – What’s working fine? Don’t fix what isn’t broken.
START – What do you wish you could do that you can’t right now?
That’s it. You tell us the business problem. My team translates it into a solution that actually makes sense.
I’ve been doing this since 1987 when floppy disks were cutting-edge. I can tell you what’s worth investing in for the long haul, and what is hype.
Why Am I Still Doing This After 38 Years?
Because it’s fun. Fun to see a business owner finally stop worrying about their network and get back to running their company. Fun to hear “This actually works better than I expected.” Fun to make a real difference and add value.
Bottom Line
Team OFM will listen to your actual needs, keep things simple, and focus on getting you to your business goals with as little hassle as possible.
