Let's Get Up To Business

Have you ever considered what you're going to do after you retire? One of the best ways to protect the money you've invested in your future is through real estate. If you haven't considered purchasing real estate as an asset to utilize for your future then you should talk to Eric and Alex at H6 homes.

Even if you're not considering real estate as a financial vehicle, then you likely understand that buying a home is one of the biggest and most important purchases you will ever make. That's why you need to have the right team on your side when you make that decision. Again, Eric and Alex along with their team are on your side.

Every business should be using imagery to promote their company. Whether it's great headshots, employees in action, or shots of your product line, having the right photo to go along with the text you're using can help you sell yourself and your services. Dawn Aiello can come in and help make sure you have the best photography to go along with your company's story.

In this week's episode, Dawn and Producer Mark sat down to discuss her work with Orlando Businesses and how that work has impacted her clients. By creating multiple shots that tell stories, and that are easy to use for both websites, social media, and traditional media, Dawn helps those clients create content and inform possible customers about their products, services, and other offerings.

Dawn Aiello Photography was established in 2011. When I look back over the years and think about what I enjoyed most, it has definitely been working with families as they pass through significant life milestones: engagement, wedding, pregnancy and family life. So I’m here to capture your family’s memories so you can treasure them for a lifetime!

Starting and running a business takes a lot of work and a lot of time. If you're looking for help on how to maximize outcome while minimizing input then Dean Harisis has some advice for you. He and Jordan sat down to discuss some of the help he offers small and medium business owners. If you're looking for advice and help, then you need look no further.

Have you ever found a USB stick on the ground and thought "Score!" Well, if you actually plugged that unknown device into your computer, there's a strong chance you just became the victim of a Phishing attack. it's tricks like this that Jordan and Phil Dumas discussed in this week's episode of Let's Get Up To Business.

Phil is the cofounder of Bellcurve Technology. To call them an IT company would be technically accurate, but a woeful understatement of the work they do for their clients. Basically, if you need to understand some aspect of technology, need help setting up a new office, or have a network that isn't performing as it should, then you need Phil in your life.

Phil is also a technologist with more than 25 years in the field of developing, prototyping and testing emerging technologies.  He currently holds patents for communicating in dynamic networks (patent number 7,515,560) and peer-to-peer video surveillance (patent number 7,495,687). He currently has six other patents pending in unique applications for software and hardware. 

Basically, he's really smart and wants to help make sure your systems are secured and that your staff knows NOT to plug that USB they found in the parking lot into your network. Take a listen and when you realize you need some help with your systems, give Phil a call.
