What are you doing to move your business forward?
As
you get caught up in the day-to-day, it can be easy to forget about the big picture.
But, improvements in areas like technology, human resources, and your employee
mix can make a big difference and take your company to the next level. This issue
of
Business Solutions
focuses on some great examples of impactful next steps you
can take.
First, on page 3, we discuss
Mentoring: AWin-Win-Win Activity
. It may seem
like the person being mentored (the mentee) is the only person benefitting from a
mentoring relationship. The truth is, mentors and companies that encourage these
relationships get great business-building benefits as well.
The Business Spotlight on pages 4 and 5 features
Stonecreek Family Physicians
,
which has been forward-thinking in many ways since its start. For example, it proac-
tively ensures its technology is up to date to give patients the best care each time they
visit. Networks Plus assists with regular check-ins and reliable help desk support.
On page 6, you’ll find
Your Guide to Ransomware Protection
. Sometimes moving
forward in your business means making sure you don’t have to take a huge step
back. That includes protecting your company’s computers from malware attacks that
can take up a big chunk of time and money.
Finally, on page 7, you’ll get to
Meet Our New Business Consultants
. As you
may know, Networks Plus is growing, and we’re expanding our employee roster
to ensure we can meet and exceed all our customers’ expectations. We’re excited
to have Robbie Smith, Jake Schulte, and Michael West on board.
Networks Plus is always here to help your business move forward in any way
we can. Feel free to reach out any time to share your vision.
Sincerely,
Brian Thomason
CEO
