As the saying goes “sh!t happens!”
The recent spate of rioting, looting and arson in the UK will cost the taxpayer millions, plus business and household insurance premiums will rise as insurance companies cover their loses. The large businesses will bounce back and continue to operate, but smaller businesses will have a much harder time of it, it’s likely a lot of them will never recover. A friend of a colleague lost everything, as her flat was gutted by fire, all she managed to save was a small backpack as she ran from the flaming building, as to her and other similar homeowners who have lost everything due to arson, I cannot imagine what they’re going through.
Whether a business owner or an individual, when disaster strikes suddenly like this, the first reaction is understandably shock & disbelief, followed by anger, but soon you have to start thinking about the future, what next? How do I get going again? Who do I contact to get some sort of compensation? I better contact my insurance company, but do you know who you’re insured with, do you know your insurance policy number, or what you are covered for? You need to contact your clients, your suppliers, your bank, your staff etc But how, if all that information was stored in files in the office, it has all been destroyed by fire or water damage!
This is where digitised versions of all of your paper work is crucial for business continuity, but scanning your documents and keeping them on a shared office server isn’t enough, you require off site copies, be it in the cloud, or at a different office location, an effective paperless office is no longer a pipe dream, it’s a reality, and one your business cannot survive disaster without!
At no paper™ our goal is to remove the need for paper from your daily life, by perfecting the paperless office for businesses, and developing convenient solutions for individuals leveraging their everyday digital devices. We believe this future is possible… join us in our mission… imagine a world with no paper™
