4. Windows Small Business Server 2008
Windows Small Business Server 2008 (SBS 2008) is an “all-in-one” server solution
designed to help you keep your data more secure, your company more productive,
and gives you the tools to present a more professional image to customers. It
provides many of the features used by larger companies—e-mail, Internet
connectivity, internal Web sites, remote access, support for mobile devices, file and
printer sharing, backup and restore—all at one affordable price.
Grow Your Business Capacity
Windows Small Business Server 2008 gives you secure access to business
contacts, calendars, e-mail, files, and other important desktop resources from
any Internet connected PC, from virtually anywhere at any time, so you can
be productive while you’re away from the office or on the road.

5. Is there a cost of doing nothing?
• “Does “doing nothing” in this economic environment
really have a cost? Absolutely. We’ve seen the results
firsthand in the recent past. Consider, for example,
the last recession, of 1998 to 2002. How many
brands that were successful prior to the downturn
emerged as viable leaders after the recovery? How
many companies simply disappeared? And how many
others lost significant brand equity? According to an
analysis by McKinsey and Company, only 60 percent
of companies that were considered brand leaders
before the downturn retained a leadership position.1
We know that simply cutting costs will not necessarily
give us a competitive advantage. If previous
downturns taught us anything, it is that prudent cost
reduction—combined with targeted investments—puts
organizations in much better shape to exploit the
difficult times and to emerge stronger, leaner, and
more competitive when the economy rebounds.” HP
• If your not making strategic investments that have a quick
ROI your operational costs will either remain constant or maybe
increase as hardware and software becomes older and unsupported.

staff or field personnel) access to great features that can significantly boost user productivity. Help your staff get more
done, in the office or on the go!
Windows SBS 2008 and Windows Mobile allow your staff to be more productive and not tied to the office for
information. Your staff can be more responsive to customers with real-time access to information. Finally, you can do all
this and control costs by standardizing on a mobile platform rather than having lots of different devices and
applications chosen randomly. Perhaps most crucially, you can extend your existing investment in Windows SBS 2008 to
make it mobile overnight—you don't have to buy any additional server software.
With Windows SBS 2008 and Windows Mobile, you can:
◦Increase employee productivity.
■Simple, mobile access to email, calendar, and contacts.

18. HP Ilo (Integrated Lights Out)
• "Having to visit a remote server can easily cost $500 to $1,500 per incident. For many customers, iLO
Advanced pays for itself on first use."
• “Basically, there’s a small area on the (ProLiant) motherboard that’s purely dedicated to hardware
management: it has its own Ethernet port and draws power from a line connected before the main power
switch of the computer, so it always remains alive so long as the mains do. This web server (and there are
other protocol interfaces) lets you see straight into the computer, even to view the POST boot screen.
Want to flash the BIOS on the server? No problem, it can even manage this. All of this is delivered via a
web-based interface, which is simplicity itself to use. Power down the server? No problem. Reconfigure
the RAID array during the POST setup? Also, no problem. Install an OS from scratch? That’s a piece of cake,
too. All I need to know is the IP address of the iLO2 port, and I’m home and dry.”
- Jon Honeyball, President, Woodleyside Ltd
• This is only available on Proliant servers from HP and the cost is about $399.00 for the software.

19. Intel VPro
• PCs with Intel vPro technology can help IT professionals
diagnose and repair both wired and wireless systems
remotely, cut downtime, and reduce the average in-
person IT support time. Intel vPro technology helps
perform remote asset tracking and checks the presence
of management agents virtually anytime. This
functionality allows you to conduct hardware and
software inventories up to 94% faster than manually
per PC³.

20. Windows Home Server can automatically backup your Small
Business server and 9 other computers to the cloud so

28. Reach your customers with less cost
• Marketing and communicating with customers is no longer
expensive or time consuming in the past you have
probably had many brochures or flyers printed and waited
for them to be distributed and you never really know if the
person receiving them was interested. Today you can use
email newsletters, Facebook, websites, Online Classifieds
and search engine advertisements that can be distributed
across the country in minutes.
• Promote your business and generate sales with easy-to-
use, affordable e-mail marketing and search marketing
products from Microsoft.
• “By not having to enlist an outside marketing-
communications firm, we’ll save an anticipated $10,000
yearly even as we reach out to thousands of additional
business opportunities”. With office 2010 you can produce
professional looking documents in house.

29. EFax or Hosted Fax
As a business person, you will most likely need to use a fax
machine. If you do, you've probably experienced some of these
problems:
• The fax machine jammed in the middle of the transmission of
an important contract.
• Your fax machine ran out of paper when you were away from
the office, while you were expecting an important document.
• Your fax machine ran out of ink in the middle of receiving a fax
• Your fax machine "swallowed" two or three pages at a time
when transmitting a document, causing the person on the
receiving end to get an incomplete document.
That is why more small businesses every day are turning to eFax,
an online fax service that eliminates the need for a fax machine,
an extra fax line and all the associated expenses (paper, ink
cartridges etc.) that come with it.
You can go paperless and save money.

30. From Michael Ryan Microsoft Canada:
• “What do you think absenteeism costs you
each year?
• Would it be fair to say that each one of your
employees takes at least one “non-sick day”
per year? “
See the financial impact.

One entrepreneur I talked to while working on the “Work Without Walls” project says his 64-
person business went completely virtual a year ago. The move saved him $1 million on rent and
overhead—and made his staff more motivated and productive.
