How I help

Technology that supports your business, and protection that keeps it running.

Your business depends on technology every day: to reach customers, communicate, get paid and keep records. I help you put that technology to work with purpose, protect what you’ve built, and prepare for the day something goes wrong.

In-person coaching in Northeastern British Columbia. Remote coaching also available.

Enable

Put the right tools to work

Choose and use technology that fits how your business actually operates.

What you walk away with

A practical, organized setup that fits how your business works, and that you understand.

You may need this if…

  • You’re paying for software you’re not sure you use
  • Files live in email attachments, personal devices and several cloud accounts
  • Simple tasks take longer than they should
  • Staff each do things their own way

What we work on together

  • Business email, calendars and shared files
  • Communication and collaboration tools
  • Reviewing software and subscriptions: keep, cancel or consolidate
  • Simplifying everyday workflows and reducing repetitive work
  • Plain-language instructions for you and your team

Presence

Build a business presence you control

Make it easier for customers to find you, understand your services, and get in touch.

What you walk away with

An online presence your business owns, with the keys in your hands, not a former employee’s or an old supplier’s.

You may need this if…

  • Someone else registered your domain or built your website
  • You don’t know who has the login to your business social media
  • Customers have trouble finding or contacting you online
  • Your online information is outdated or inconsistent

What we work on together

  • A clean, professional website
  • Domain registration in your business’s name, with renewals you control
  • Setting up and securing business social media profiles
  • Business listings and consistent contact information
  • An account inventory: who owns what, and how to recover access

Protect

Strengthen your everyday security

Make security part of how you work, rather than a separate technical mystery.

What you walk away with

Sensible, prioritized protection matched to your business, your risk and your budget, plus habits your team can keep.

You may need this if…

  • Passwords are reused, shared, or written on sticky notes
  • Former staff or contractors may still have access
  • Your Wi-Fi and router were set up years ago and never revisited
  • You’re not confident you’d recognize a convincing scam email or fake invoice

What we work on together

  • Password managers and multi-factor authentication
  • Access permissions for staff, contractors and service providers
  • Onboarding and offboarding steps for people who join or leave
  • Router, Wi-Fi, guest network and device security settings
  • Recognizing phishing, fraud and suspicious payment requests
  • Simple routines for updates and device care

Prepare

Keep your business ready for the unexpected

Plan for interruptions before you have to manage one.

What you walk away with

A clear, written plan: what matters most, what to do first, and who to call.

You may need this if…

  • You’re not sure your backups work, or whether you have any
  • An Internet or power outage would stop you taking payments or serving customers
  • One person holds all the passwords or knows how everything works
  • You’ve never written down what to do if something fails

What we work on together

  • Backup and recovery arrangements, tested so you know they work
  • Alternatives when Internet, phone or payment systems go down
  • Access to essential information during an outage or evacuation
  • Procedures for lost or stolen devices and locked accounts
  • Key contacts, responsibilities and recovery priorities
  • A plain-language Business Technology Continuity Plan

Northeastern BC businesses face real disruptions: wildfire season, severe winter weather, long distances and outages that can last. My background in emergency response and emergency management means we plan for those days, not just the good ones.
