What an unforgettable night! Leadership Live was an evening to remember. We were honored to host Coach Dick Vermeil and Phil Towle this week. From football fields to boardrooms, the wisdom shared reminded us that true leadership is about people, purpose, and perseverance.

🎥 Our team spills the tea on their favorite ways to use ChatGPT now that we’ve rolled out Enterprise across JMARK. How are you using AI to make work smarter (and a little more fun)?

Your technology should fuel growth, not headaches. That is how you put a "People First. Technology Second." philosophy into action. Full blog here 👉

Bottom line: Break the reactive cycle. Build a 5 year plan. Free up your leaders to focus on the future, not the next outage.

That means predictable IT costs. Migration chaos avoided. Performance that does not tank after year four. Delaying replacement does not save money. It costs more in the long run.

Think asset management. When we roll out new hardware, we already know when it will retire. Planning by the quarter keeps replacements on schedule with no surprises and no downtime.

Why 5 years? Shorter plans = constant course corrections Longer plans = they go stale fast Five years is the sweet spot for hardware, SaaS contracts, and innovation cycles.

A 5 year roadmap helps you shift from reacting to planning. ✅ Smooth budgets ✅ Fewer surprise expenses ✅ Tech that actually supports your business goals

Want to turn your IT from a crisis magnet into a growth engine? It starts with a long-range technology plan. Here's why a 5 year tech roadmap sets SMBs apart. ⬇️

Cybersecurity is about protecting people, not just tech. The tools matter, but your culture, training, and foresight matter more. At JMARK, we believe People First, Technology Second. Stay sharp, stay proactive, and keep your business secure.

Quantum threats are not here yet, but preparation matters. Less than 5 percent of businesses have a plan. Build crypto-agility now, map your sensitive systems, and get ready for post-quantum cryptography.

Zero Trust isn’t just a buzzword. "Never trust, always verify" should be the standard. Enforce least-privilege access, build in strong identity controls, and keep monitoring in real time.

Training is not a once-a-year checkbox. Human error drives most breaches. Gamified awareness training, phishing tests, and quick refresher sessions keep your team engaged and alert.

AI scams are getting personal. Fraudsters use fake voices and hyper-realistic emails to impersonate people you know. Always verify requests, double check links, and lean on 2FA everywhere you can

Patching is not optional. This year alone, hundreds of major vulnerabilities have been discovered. Automate updates where you can and make patch management a priority. Don’t wait for an incident to remind you.
