Nick Lyustiger, Computer Consulting and Virtual IT<br><br><br><br><p>Do you own or manage a computer consulting company? Would you like
to achieve greater small business success? If so, then get ready to
learn why most computer consulting companies get IT (Information
Technology) wrong and what you can do about IT.</p><p>The Problem: Why Most Computer Consulting Companies Get IT Wrong</p><p>Most
owners of computer consulting companies make their jobs much harder
than need be. Why? Because these computer consulting business owners
fall in love with the technology... and view their small business
clients as a distant second priority.</p><p>However, if you get this
part of "IT" wrong, you will doom your computer consulting company to
"clueless geek" status. It's crucial that you understand one extremely
important principle here: Recruiting and retaining small business
clients is your #1 computer consulting priority. Keeping up with IT
should never get in the way of the mission of your computer consulting
company.</p><p>In other words, don't get seduced by the hardware,
operating systems or applications. Fall-in-love with the business
opportunities surrounding how you solve your clients' biggest business
problems with your recommended IT solutions. That's the real mission of
a computer consulting company.</p><p>The Solution: Blend Computer Consulting and Virtual IT</p><p>To
put this all in perspective with your computer consulting company, you
need to understand and embrace the concept of virtual IT.</p><p>Virtual
IT is what allows your computer consulting company to function as an
extension of your small business clients' companies. Your computer
consulting company essentially becomes the outsourced IT department for
your small business clients.</p><p>As owner or manager of a computer
consulting company in this role, you will most likely become the de
facto CIO (chief information officer), CTO (chief technology officer),
or IT manager for your small business clients.</p><p>And just like any
well-rounded internal IT department, your virtual IT computer
consulting business will need to provide, or arrange for, a complete
soup-to-nuts solution that includes services like help desk, desktop
support, network administration, engineering, security, training,
procurement, and asset management... because anything short of the
complete virtual IT solution will leave valuable computer consulting
money on the table.</p><p>The Bottom Line</p><p>Most computer
consulting companies are making a huge mistake when it comes to their
small business engagements... because these computer consulting
business owners fall-in-love with the technology, at the expense of the
business opportunities. In order for your computer consulting company
to flourish, make sure that you understand the concept of virtual IT
and build virtual IT into every major business decision for your
computer consulting company. To continue learning more about how you
