“7 IDEALS” Methodology Overview & Invitation

HOT NEWS: I'm working on the "7 IDEALS METHODOLOGY" video presentation, the blueprint (infographic & guide), the 7 ideals page, and a brand-new contest. For more information, join the newsletter and get exclusive bonuses and discounts for a lifetime.

Overview & Invitation

This methodology is the end result of over 30 years in business and marketing and I'm working on it since late 2021.

A systematic and structured approach to developing and implementing proprietary and custom-made strategies, processes, and campaigns for small businesses and startups.

It’s a methodology specifically designed to help you compete efficiently in the overcomplicated marketplace.

It’s a proprietary system that looks at your business as a whole and gives you a clear path – a roadmap to follow – a solid and flexible strategy and action plan.

It involves a set of principles, processes, models, frameworks, tactics, and techniques that you can use to achieve and surpass your business goals and objectives.

It’s not just a methodology to promote your products and services, that’s only one tiny aspect. It’s a methodology that helps you design, run, manage, and grow businesses. From an initial idea to becoming a leading name in your respective industry and beyond.

Starting small is actually the biggest benefit in this multi-dimensional, fast-changing marketplace.

Small businesses are personal, we get to interact with our customers face-to-face, and serve them at the highest level possible.

We know we can’t compete with giant corporations on budget, resources, or technology, but when it comes to delivering user experiences… guess… who’s the boss!

It’s a carefully designed, strategically organized methodology that helps small business owners understand the market inside out, create a competitive advantage, and develop unmatched – innovative products that consumers can’t enjoy and recommend enough.

STAY TUNED!

WealthyAffiliate - Why Does Everyone Want to be an Influencer? (most make no money) VIDEO:

I know we tend to look up to those that we view as public figures, and that is the case with influencers now on social media. There is a problem though. We perceive these folks through a much different lens than who they actually are, and we also perceive these folks with "followings" to be much more successful than they are.

Business success isn’t an overnight thing. Unfortunately, a moment of carelessness can lead your business to financial loss, ruined image, and data breaches. And, all these can be triggered by a cyberattack.

The current statistics might be shocking — how almost 50% of businesses encountered cyberattacks or were on the edge of cyber risk in 2019.

Cybercriminals are proactively waiting for you to get trapped under their tricks. When it comes to cyberattacks, they can vary in broad ways. For example, it can be phishing mail, malware, or ransomware. If one of your employees clicks anything suspicious, every confidential data has the potential to get leaked.

And, a data breach is not measured as a good sign in the industry. Your business values will be disrupted, and the reputation of your brand might get damaged.

Let’s see how you can reverse all the consequences of cyberattacks just by adopting cybersecurity strategies.

8 Ways To Secure Your Business Against Cybersecurity Vulnerabilities

#1 Use Strong Passwords

Don’t tell us that you have deployed ‘admin1234’ as the password of your office device. Anyone can guess such a password and get into your device straightway. As per data recovery experts, passwords should be hard to guess. Or else, cybercriminals can easily guess them, and the consequences can go deadly for your business.

Adopt healthy practices of using strong passwords that are hard to crack. You should better deploy password management for the company and use different tools for keeping them secure.

#2 Initiate Cybersecurity Training for Employees

It’s certain that you are lucky to have a team of dedicated employees who are working very hard to achieve success. But, the truth is cybercriminals are more likely to target your employees. According to surveys conducted, employees have received malicious emails and threats that can lead to a data breach in no time.

On the other hand, if employees don’t understand the importance of cybersecurity, they might endanger the existence of the company. So, don’t take risks with that. Instead, engage your employees in cybersecurity training modules so that they can learn dos and don’ts regarding cyber-attacks. Start with what they should do on receiving a cliché mail from anyone.

#3 Back up Data

What would you do if a ransomware attack takes place at your business and every bit of data gets stolen? If you haven’t backed up all your business data, then you must do it right now. Build a habit of frequently backing up business data on all your computers.

Now, what should be the focal point when it comes to important data? They are databases, human resources files, word processing files, financial files, spreadsheets, and most importantly, accounts. Well, on-premise data backup isn’t enough for your business. Consider the same data for backup on cloud storage and offsite, as well.

#4 Tighten Wi-Fi Coverage

No doubt, your business is full of Wi-Fi networks that are used by your employees mostly. However, don’t keep Wi-Fi networks open for guests, especially those that all your employees are using. How can you handle the security measures of your Wi-Fi setup?

Encrypt, better hide all your Wi-Fi networks around your workspace. Use the router to hide the network from visitors or guests. Hiding the Wi-Fi network will not show the SSID of the network to outsiders. If it’s about the reputation of your business, then provide different Wi-Fi support to your guests.

#5 Install Firewall and Antivirus Duo

Firewalls act as a barrier between your data and those sneaky cybercriminals. If you want to keep your business data confidential and safe, then deploy a competent firewall technology on all your business devices. When mobile devices are quite popular as a laptop substitute, make sure that firewalls are installed in them, too.

In addition to this, business-approved antivirus software will be great for securing all the data inside the business. Installing antivirus software alone won’t make any difference. Hence, check if your antivirus is active and update it regularly so that you won’t miss any security updates.

#6 Update Software

Everyone is getting more technology-reliant. Businesses are no exception; as a business owner, you have to use lots and lots of software or applications to keep everything in its place. While selecting software, don’t forget to get an insight regarding that software. To keep your business on the safe side, go for only trusted software.

Additionally, you should keep updating all your software from time to time. The developers of software keep releasing important security updates and features associated with the software. If you update those pieces of applications regularly, you reduce the chances of your business being affected by hackers.

#7 Strengthen Payment Procedures

Business means that you have to handle tonnes of payments every day. And, you are aware of the fraudulent cases when it comes to the payment portal. Make your business safe along with its bank accounts by using only valid tools.

Pair up with trusted banks or payment processors that can provide you with optimum security. As a bonus point, you should not be saving your bank and payment details on the same computer that you use 24/7 for internet access or day-to-day tasks.

#8 Control Access of Data and Machinery

Not everything in your business should be discoverable by anyone. If your company has business computers, servers, and other necessary hardware, then you should keep them in a restricted place.

In addition to this, you should decide who can access all that stuff. Moreover, you can deploy a biometric lock-up at the entrance to keep the security tightened. Pass the authority on to reliable and trusted employees of your business.

Hire a Cybersecurity Expert for Everything Managed

Handling cybersecurity practices on your own can go a bit hectic. After all, you might not be habituated with this expertise. And, it’s one of the greatest aspects of your business’s growth. So, look for cybersecurity experts for the best and proven results. Well, don’t forget to check up on the credibility and success factors of the company before hiring them.
