Is Your Winery Ready for Visitors?

Spring is approaching, which means more and more visitors will start visiting your Winery and pouring into your Tasting Room!

With 1 out of 2 people having a SmartPhone, and Social Media usage on the rise, many of your visitors will want to "check-in" when they visit your location, "like" your Winery, and "share" their experience with friends.

         

Did you know that every 60 seconds:

-- 2,000 people check-in on foursquare.

                    -- 3,125 photos are uploaded to flickr.

                    -- 175,000 people tweet on twitter.

                    -- 700,000 messages are sent on facebook.

 

That's not to mention all of the people texting their friends, rating your Winery on Yelp, etc.

 

To capture these "in the moment" marketing opportunities, it is beneficial to have a strong WiFi signal for your guests to use.  Not only does WiFi add to guest hospitality, but it can be used to extend out your POS abilities by creating a Mobile POS and also allows for onsite security cameras to tie in with your existing network.

 

Fusion Technology Solutions is here to help you be prepared.  Please contact us today for a Free Consultation and Quote to add WiFi to your Winery!

Welcome to the Improved World of VoIP!

What is VoIP?  VoIP stands for Voice Over Internet Protocal - a communications protocol that allows for telephonic communication via the Internet.

A VoIP Telephone System is usually used because it is a cost-conscious choice for businesses that regularly make long-distance or international calls because your monthly rate stays the same regardless of how many calls you make or the distance between you and the person you’re calling. 

One added benefit of a VoIP Telephone System from Fusion Technology Solutions is that it has more functions compared to a traditional land-based telephone service.  It can perform tasks that may be more difficult to achieve using traditional phone networks like routing calls to a user's VoIP telephone regardless of where the user is connected to the network.  And, with our business telephone system, you don’t need to make a major investment in capital equipment that will be obsolete almost immediately.  In addition, a VoIP Telephone System allows you to scale up or down as your business needs change.

Please contact us today to find out more about how a Fusion Technology Solutions' VoIP Telephone System can benefit your business and take it to the next level of productivity.  Act now and receive a Free Assessment (a $230.00 value!) -- offer expires 12/12/11.  Please mention this article.

$$ Preventing Data Loss to Avoid Business Loss $$
 

Your data protection strategy should include more than just an in-house backup copy -– if your office were destroyed, your chance of data recovery would be gone, too.  A catastrophic event might seem unlikely, but there are plenty of other risks to your data that could bring your business to a halt.  A virus or network failure could keep your business down for days.  There are too many threats out there for businesses to operate without an off-site backup!

Would you be able to carry on business as usual without your data?  Would you know how (or even who) to contact regarding customer orders and deliveries or be able to contact leads and make new sales?  How long would your business survive if data recovery was not an option?

Fusion Technology Solutions' Data Protection Services can help save you potential loss of revenue, while giving your business peace of mind should anything happen to your data.

How a Spam Filter Can Help Protect You From Phishing

Aside from Spam Emails being annoying, time consuming, and occupying heaps of memory space on your computer, there is a more devious threat that can come with those emails:  Phishing! 

Many Spam Emails are created to look like official emails from your bank or other important agencies, or designed to be a "Special Offer".  Once opened and the link clicked, you are directed to a bogus website where you are asked to enter your user name, password, or other personal information.  During the Phishing process, your data is being collected and utilized, potentially causing unwanted charges to your credit cards or even identity theft.

Here comes the importance of a Spam Filter.  The Spam Filter can help forestall potentially harmful messages from entering your inbox as well as keep your inbox tidy.  With these enticing emails not in your inbox, there chance of having your company's information Phished is greatly reduced.

Adding Fusion Technology Solutions' Spam Filter Service to your computer's network can greatly help reduce the chance of you receiving a Phishing Email and the potential damage it may cause to you or your company.

Email Spam and How It Can Affect

Your Business

What is Spam?  Spam is the use of electronic messaging systems to send unsolicited bulk messages indiscriminately.

How can it affect your business?  Spam sent to each employee of your business costs you time and money, because each employee is forced to deal with that message.  When this happens 10, 20 or 50 times per day, the costs add up and prevent your employees from focusing on more important business.

How can we help?  By adding Fusion Technology Solutions Spam Filtering Service, your employees never even see most of these emails, so your business has more time to focus on what's important instead.

Our Spam Filter Service can work with our Managed Anti-Virus Service as well!  This combination can greatly improve your computer network’s security and helps prevent the opening of potentially harmful emails by your employees -- emails that may contain viruses and/or phishing scams, which can crash your system or steal confidential information and passwords.

Contact Fusion Technology Solutions today and let us help you boost your company's security and productivity.  Act now and receive Free Setup and 1-Month Free Service when you sign up for a 12-Month Subscription.  Offer expires 10/3/11; please mention this article when contacting us.

In the previous lesson we talked about Viruses, Worms and Trojan Horses, but they aren't the only threats that can cause havoc to your Computer Network's health.  Malware is just another name for software that has an evil intent.  Here are the most common types of malware and what each can do to your infected computer:

• Adware -puts ads up on your screen and is disruptive to productivity.
• Dialers -forces your computer to make phone calls.  For example, one might call toll 900-numbers and run up your phone bill, while boosting revenue for the owners of the 900-numbers.
• Hijackers -allows a cracker (computer hacker) to remotely control your computer to possibly conduct illegal activities.
• Spyware -collects personal information about you, like your passwords or other information you type into your computer.

Fusion Technology Solutions' Managed Anti-Virus Service can help with these potential problems, in addition to protection from Viruses, Worms, and Trojan Horses.  Let our comprehensive monthly service keep your computer network safer and one step ahead of new threats.

Please contact us today for monthly rates and other great add-on services to help improve your computer network's performance and security.

Common Security Threats

You may have read or heard of electronic infection.  Many computers and networks are infected each day.  Here are the most common:

• E-mail viruses- An e-mail virus travels as an attachment to an e-mail message and usually replicates itself by automatically mailing itself to dozens of people in your e-mail address book.  Some e-mail viruses don't even require a double-click -- they launch when you view the infected message in the preview pane of your e-mail software.
• Trojan horses - A Trojan horse is simply a computer program which claims to do one thing (like being a game or application) but instead does damage when you run it (it may erase your hard disk).
• Viruses- A virus is a small piece of software that piggybacks onto real programs.  For example, a virus might attach itself to a program such as a spreadsheet program.  Each time the spreadsheet program runs, the virus runs too, and has the chance to reproduce (by attaching to other programs) or wreak havoc.
• Worms- A worm is a small piece of software that uses your computer network and security holes to replicate itself.  A copy of the worm scans your network for another machine that has a specific security hole.  It then copies itself to the new machine using the security hole, and starts replicating from there as well.

You can take action and help prevent these common electronic infections from attacking your business and causing loss of data or worse, the erasing of your hard disk!  Contact Fusion Technology Solutions today and let us help protect your investment with our simple monthly Managed Anti-Virus Plan.

Enhance your Network's Security
with
Fusion Technology Solutions' Managed Anti-Virus Service

There is nothing worse than having your network invaded by an unknown virus, especially when it could have been prevented.  Today's viruses are sneakier than ever.  Some have the ability to load into your computer's memory so they can keep running in the background as long as the computer remains on; others put their code in the boot sector of your hard drive, where the virus can guarantee it is executed by loading itself immediately when your computer is turned on.  These are just some of the many ways your computer can be affected.

No one wants their business interrupted or their data corrupted by a virus when simple measures could have been in place to help prevent it.  Fusion Technology Solutions' Managed Anti-Virus Service can now easily be added to your existing network for a low monthly fee.  A small price for better piece of mind.
