A small business can run for years with technology that only one person understands. That works until a computer fails, an employee leaves, a password gets lost, or the internet goes down during a busy day.
Know your devices
List every computer, laptop, tablet, printer, router, payment device, camera system, and shared workstation. Note who uses it, what it does, and whether it is still under warranty.
Know your email and accounts
Document where business email lives, who manages the domain, which accounts have admin access, and whether multi-factor authentication is turned on.
Know your backups
Every business should know what is backed up, where it is backed up, how often it runs, and how recovery would work if a device failed tomorrow.
Know your network
Write down the internet provider, modem, router, WiFi names, network gear, and any devices that depend on the connection. This matters when printers, cloud apps, or payment systems stop working.
Know your website and domain
Your website, domain, hosting, analytics, forms, and Google Business Profile are business assets. Make sure someone knows where they are managed and how to access them.
