Important changes to our IT Support services

From Monday 1 September, except in a very few cases, I won’t be doing any IT Support work personally. This article explains how things will work after that.
For two years now, I’ve been intending to operate in line with Prussia.Net’s slogan, Managing Information for Small Business. As I explained in Prussia.Net evolves, this is all really about your business information, not “just” computers. And it’s about a managed approach, not just fixing things when they break.
My personal role will be to do that planning and management. I’ll help you figure out what tools will most effectively support your business, and then select and manage the suppliers who’ll make it happen. I’ll also be working more on web development, and especially the new “Web 2.0” and “social media” tools.
(more…)“I don’t understand computers” is not an excuse
Business managers need to know how to manage every aspect of their business—including computers and the Internet. You don’t need to know the technical details, but you should know enough to make effective decisions about how they’re used in your business.
Stilgherrian has written a fairly blunt article in his personal website.
New (interim) rates for IT Support services
An interim version of Prussia.Net’s new IT Support rates starts today.
I say “interim” because, as I’ve mentioned before, I’m selecting a business to handle this stuff long-term — a company rather than an individual because one person simply can’t be available 24/7.
I haven’t finished that yet, so I can’t give you full details. However, the hourly rate will be cheaper if the work is done as part of a pre-paid plan, rather than responding as tasks pop up randomly.
Meanwhile, from today I’ll be charging new rates for work I do personally. It’s the first change in two years.

Not that long ago we produced yet another small website for our friends at Fender Australia, for the custom made Gretsch guitars they distribute.
By creating a separate website at gretschcustomshop.com.au, they’re able to showcase the unique, top-shelf qualities of these instruments and give visitors the impression they’re seeing experiencing special.
