Like most things tech, if you didn't grow up with technology or have an affinity for it then it'll be more difficult to learn and understand. The cloud is technology that either makes sense to a business owner or doesn't. It’s not magical or sentient and exists to both save you money and make more money.

“Simply put, cloud computing is the delivery of computing services—servers, storage, databases, networking, software, analytics, and more—over the Internet” (Azure)

Cloud services are basically a collection of related services that are put together to enable you to deliver your service and support your business while reducing cost, improving reliability and setting you up for growth.

As a business owner, are you more concerned with how tech can help you deliver more value to your clients? We can help you figure that out.

Why is it important?

Are you spending unnecessarily on your technology infrastructure right now? Are you unsure of the value your employees are bringing to the table? Are you contemplating a full time employee to manage your technology? 

For example one system administrator position can be eliminated saving you at least $100,000/year. That saved money can then be reinvested in marketing and new projects to increase customer engagement and drive new sales.

“Adding on-premise computing resources requires the outlay of capital expenses to buy additional servers, storage, power or sometimes in extreme cases building entirely new data centers.” (Petri)

Or simply put, if you try to do it inhouse, it’s going to cost you significantly.

If your aim is to grow your company and you depend on technology for some aspect of your business, making sure that your technology needs align with your business goals is critical. Not doing so could result in potential lost earnings and missed growth opportunities.

How does it help you?

For any startup or company with a service or product that depends on technology, investing in a proper cloud infrastructure will save you money immediately and in the long run. Those savings will be critical if you plan on increasing your audience. With growth comes the need for stability and the ability to increase your ability to serve more of your customers. Way back in 2009 Google identified the need for speedy and reliable services in their search engine. Hubspot details the need for speed and reliability with the following facts:

• 79% of customers who report dissatisfaction with website performance are less likely to bu from that same site again
• If your website makes $100,000/day, 1 second improvement in page speed beings in $7000/day
