In our January 2023 newsletter:

Your Year to Thrive (Not Just Survive!)



As we kick off the new year, it’s time to start thinking about the future of your business. For many small- to medium-sized organizations, the last few years have been all about surviving. But 2023 can be a fresh start. No more simply surviving. It’s time for thriving.

First, it’s time to clean house. Ransomware attacks are lurking around every virtual corner, so it’s more important than ever to protect your business (and have the certification that you’ve done so!).

Next? Stay on top of trends. Take time to acquaint yourself with how technology is streamlining business needs (cybersecurity included), and take advantage of those tools.

Finally, look to the future. Where do you want to take your business in the long run? Have you thought about a succession plan for your company? Maybe it’s time to do a little M&A research.

Want more of what’s in the January 2023 newsletter? At F12, we’re always ready to help you find ways to boost business while keeping things (cyber)secure. Reach out to us for all your IT needs, and get thriving!
