5 Common Small Business Growing Pains and How DNS Made Easy Can Help

Reston, VA (PRWEB) July 08, 2014

Growing pains: we all have them and none of us like them. Now, it’s time to talk about them.

We aren’t talking about becoming a teenager here, but the hard work and challenges that come with running a business. Owning and operating a company comes with many obstacles and, hopefully, many rewards.

DNS Made Easy experts tackle the five most common challenges and mistakes business owners run into while growing a company. Take a look:

Mistake #1: Plan for the best and forget the rest.

The website is up-and-running; orders and work are flowing in. Everything is going as planned. Then the website goes down. Downtime has a direct result on the bottom line. Take retail giant, Amazon, for example. The Seattle-based company went down for 40 minutes in 2013 and reported million in losses during that period.

Remedy: DNS Made Easy’s Elite Resolution Platform is a proprietary multi-tiered framework that creates localized server redundancy and scalability within the DNS Made Easy enterprise IP Anycast+ server constellation.

That means DNS Made Easy’s Automatic DNS Failover & System Monitoring solution can guarantee as soon as a website, service, or internet connection is offline, all traffic will be automatically pointed over to a secondary IP address, server, or provider set up at another location. DNS Made Easy offers the best uptime in the industry.

Mistake #2: The “I must do it all” attitude.

This symptom typically occurs when there is a lot that needs to be done combined with a lack of coordination and unclear roles. Running a business is a multi-faceted job and being all things to all people and doing all things in all jobs doesn’t cut it for long. This strategy might work to start a business, but it doesn’t work to grow one.

Remedy: Share the responsibility. Let DNS Made Easy monitor your systems for the business. Our system will check every two-to-four minutes to ensure a business’ primary IP is responding. If it isn’t, DNS Made Easy will notify the administrator immediately and take action to reroute the IP address until the issue is remedied. DNS Made Easy believes having zero downtime is expected and required in the DNS business.

Mistake #3: Growing alone.

This mistake piggy backs on mistake #2. Failing to see what’s in your blind spots, not interacting with like-minded people and ignoring advice all creates a business vacuum. And we all know from 8th grade science, nothing grows in a vacuum.

Remedy: DNS Made Easy doesn’t want you to face your issues alone. That’s why we created 24-7 support via online or telephone.

Mistake #4: Not using technology to your advantage.

Writing notes by hand on college-ruled paper might work in the short-term, but a thriving business needs to utilize all aspects of technology to stay on top. Gone are the days of the card catalog filing system and in are the technology times.

Remedy: DNS Made Easy operates Internet backbones with the largest and most reliable data providers in the business. Providing answers to each DNS request with complete redundancy is what we guarantee for each of the 8 billion DNS requests we receive each day. DNS Made Easy knows managing our full network from contract, to rack, to router, to switch, to name server is the only way to fully manage and optimize it for speed, redundancy, and scalability. We handle 100% of network management in-house.

Mistake #5: Not maintaining costs.

Expenses can quickly get out of hand. Business loans and growing costs add up fast, which is why keeping a handle on expenses is important early on.

Remedy: DNS Made Easy starts our services package at .95 per year for a small business. That includes 5 million queries per month, two-factor authentication, 10 domain names and more.

Winner of Victoria’s Small Training Provider of the Year Also Celebrates 25th Anniversary, Australian College of Fitness & Bodywork

Mitcham, Victoria (PRWEB) June 26, 2014

It’s a double celebration for The Australian College of Fitness & Bodywork (ACFB) as they announce their 25 year anniversary (being in operation since 1989) and the award they won as the Victorian Small Training Provider of the Year 2013. Their win was presented by the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development.

ACFB is a registered training organisation in Mitcham and a multi-award winning college delivering courses on fitness, massage therapy practice, remedial massage, and myotherapy. Founded in 1989 as a not-for-profit organisation, it is now a state-of-the-art training facility employing 14 trainers and contractors with a genuine desire to help students.

Andrew Maas, Business Manager at ACFB states, “It is a real honour to win the Victorian Training Awards. We’ve worked very hard to provide the best possible training since 1989, and because of the effort we put in, we have risen to the top of the education industry. These awards go to show that you don’t have to be the biggest or the loudest training institute to be one of the best – it all comes down to the hard work, skill and passion of the individuals involved. ACFB have been very fortunate to have a fantastic team and we would not be able to offer the quality of training that we do, without the great trainers and staff we have.”

The Department of Education and Early Childhood Development awarded ACFB with the Victorian Small Training Provider of the Year 2013. At the same time ACFB received two finalist nominations in Melbourne South East Business Awards 2013: Business Growth and Development, and the Small Business Award.

Mr. Maas emphasises, “With our long and accredited history & award winning training as a fitness college in Melbourne, along with our passionate approach to training, ACFB offers its students exciting, fun and empowering courses that prepare them for the workforce and enable them to become future leaders in these two dynamic industries; fitness and massage.”

ACFB provides alternative options to students for on-campus study, on-campus flexi study, and distance learning study on both fitness and massage. And Mr. Maas adds, “Our trainers always go the extra mile with a hands-on approach, small class sizes, and flexible delivery options, allowing our training to not only teach the skills of massage and fitness, but also helps students to better cater to clients’ needs and become industry-leading therapists and trainers.”
