PCM Closer Look 2025

Is Your IT Company Really Giving You Peace of Mind? • Did your IT provider start out strong—responsive, helpful, and engaged— only to fade into the background over time, leaving you frustrated and wondering if they’re really on top of things? • Do you feel like your IT is “out of sight, out of mind” until something breaks? • Are you confident your network is properly protected against ransomware, downtime, and especially business email compromise, one of the costliest cyberattacks for small and midsize businesses today? If you hesitated on any of these, it’s time to take a closer look. Dear Colleague, As you can see, I’ve sent you a tiny magnifying glass. Why have I done this? Simply as a way to catch your attention and offer you a FREE IT Assessment so you can take a “closer look” at whether or not your current IT company is keeping you secure from ransomware, downtime, data loss and cyber-attacks. My name is Ed VanderLaan, President of Professional Computer Management Inc. (PCM). For more than 30 years, we’ve helped business leaders like you eliminate IT headaches, improve security, and gain the peace of mind that their systems are truly protected. Here’s a reality most CEOs don’t hear from their IT team: Over 97% of networks we audit have major gaps in security and reliability. These gaps often go unnoticed until they cause downtime, data loss, or a cyberattack. And the cost of a business email compromise (BEC)—where attackers trick staff into wiring funds or exposing sensitive data—can be devastating. That’s why PCM takes a structured, proactive approach. Instead of waiting for problems, we conduct regular checks, audits, and reviews to ensure your systems are healthy, secure, and aligned with industry best practices. A Free 30-Minute IT Assessment I’d like to offer you a complimentary 30-minute IT Assessment. In this meeting, we will: • Evaluate your current IT support—what’s working, what isn’t, and where risks may be hiding. www.pcm.ca
