From the Desk of: Ed VanderLaan President, Professional Computer Management Inc. Dear owner/manager, As you can see, I’ve attached a loonie to the top of this letter. Why have I done this? There are two reasons: 1. First, I have something very important to tell you and I wanted to make sure this letter would catch your attention. 2. Since this letter is about helping you AVOID losing a lot more than $1 due to hidden IT problems or business disruptions, I thought a dollar coin was an appropriate eyecatcher. Here’s what this is all about… My name is Ed VanderLaan, President of Professional Computer Management. We specialize in providing IT services and support to businesses in the Greater Hamilton area—helping ensure their systems are reliable, secure, and supporting growth instead of creating risk. And here’s what we’ve discovered… Many companies believe their IT is “fine”… until it’s actually measured against best practices.
FREE Business IT Risk Scorecard Spend Just A Few Minutes… And Find Out Where Your Business Is At Risk Do any of these sound familiar? - You’re paying for IT support but not entirely sure what you’re getting - Issues keep popping up and never seem fully resolved - You’re not fully confident your business could recover from a major disruption - You assume your backups and systems are working—but can’t prove it
If any of that resonates, you’re not alone. Many businesses tolerate these issues simply because they’re busy or don’t know who else to trust. That’s exactly why I’m reaching out.
Introducing Our FREE Business IT Risk Scorecard This simple scorecard will show you how your business stacks up against: - IT performance and reliability standards - Backup and recovery readiness - Operational risk benchmarks - Real-world issues we see every day When you complete it, here’s what you’ll discover: - IF your systems are truly stable or just getting by - IF your backups would actually work in a real situation - IF your IT provider is proactive or reactive - IF your business is exposed to unnecessary risk - How you compare to other companies like yours In many cases, business owners are shocked to learn their environment wouldn’t recover properly from a serious issue—even though they believed everything was fine.
Why We’re Offering This For Free We’ve seen a growing number of businesses experience downtime, data loss, and preventable IT failures—and most already had support in place. So rather than asking you to trust us, we prefer to show you where you stand. No pressure. No obligation. Just clarity. Here’s how it works: Step 1: Complete the scorecard (3–5 minutes) Step 2: We review and benchmark your results Step 3: We walk you through what it means (if you want)
If we identify issues, we’ll give you a clear action plan. You can fix it yourself, use your current provider, or work with us; it’s entirely up to you. After your scorecard, one of three things will happen: 1. You’ll use the insights and improve things on your own 2. You’ll ask for help implementing improvements 3. You’ll decide no action is needed
Either way, you’ll be better informed. Please don’t ignore this. The biggest risks in IT are often the ones you don’t see—until they cost you. If you’re not 100% confident in your systems, take a few minutes to find out where you stand. Get Your IT Risk Score Now: www.pcm.ca/scorecard
