Back Up the Business Before a Laptop Picks the Worst Day

Know the important data, keep more than one copy, protect account access, and test a restore. A backup that cannot restore is décor.

What this means for your business

Start with what would stop sales or operations: customer and booking data, financial exports, contracts, product files, credentials, website source, and configuration. Different tools need different backup methods.

What to watch

  • Everything synced to one cloud account with one login.
  • Exports never taken from a critical rented software tool.
  • The backup drive always connected to the same computer.
  • Nobody has restored a file or knows the recovery account.

Do this next

  1. List the data that would hurt most to lose.
  2. Find where each original and backup copy lives.
  3. Add a separate protected copy and recovery access.
  4. Restore one file and record the steps and date.

When Little Fight fits
