You've spent the last X number of years tripping over boxes and running out of space so now is the time to outsource all your lovely boxes to a Document Management Company.
How do you start the process of looking for a company that will have the right facilities, attention to detail and care, the same that you have lavished on your archive this many a long year? The internet is a good place to start, maybe a recommendation, Twitterbuddies, maybe even the old Yellow Pages. A question for you, do you trust every website you see, especially if it offers you everything you want for less than £1. Hmm call me over cautious but lets pick up the phone and see if I can talk to someone.
Enter slick as slick salesman whose every answer is "yes of course" until you ask, well can I come and see your facility?
If everything goes quiet and they mention regulations and audits and issues with security of visitors, hang up, back away from the phone and try the next one. Any decent, properly run Document Management Company should welcome you with open arms and be proud to show you the nuts and bolts of their operation.
As I have mentioned many times before, your archive is one of the most important elements of your business and you need to protect it. Your Document Storage Company need to protect it and you must be able to recall what you need when you need it.
So the golden rules when looking for a Document Storage Partner are....
1. Do your research
2. Speak to a human
3. Visit the site
4. Ensure they understand your requirements
5. Ask questions and don't be afraid to question
6. Look at the whole operation from a personal viewpoint, are YOU happy?
Finally when all is completed, have a look around your office and think what else you can put in all that space you have just created!
Or you can take the straightforward route and come straight to Safebox where we really will tick all your boxes and more.
