If you are hiring someone that doesn’t have enough experience, your IT department will suffer and you will end up spending more on technology than necessary.
When you expand your company, your IT person won’t necessarily know how to cope with the workload or orchestrate a move.
When IT people remain in the same small business for years, they tend to lose track of new trends and technology that could benefit your enterprise.
The time and money you spend hiring, managing, training and paying for an internal IT person is not only cost prohibitive but capital that can be better deployed growing the top line of your business.
