As business owners in the digital age, we are constantly surrounded by screens. From the computers in our offices to the smartphones in our pockets, it seems as though we’re always connected, but have you taken measures to protect your business privacy and ensure your personal safety?
In this episode of Design Your Wedding Business, we are discussing the often overlooked yet extremely vital steps to build a tech security starter pack that keeps out hackers, viruses, and other unwanted intruders.
Our guest, Elizabeth Sheils, is sharing five easy-to-implement steps to safeguard sensitive information in your business and on behalf of your clients so you can sleep better at night.
Co-founder of Rock Paper Coin, Elizabeth Sheils never pictured a career in tech. Yet, while leading a team of wedding planners out of Seattle, her decade-plus of industry experience opened her eyes to the market gaps that presented challenges for herself and her planner colleagues. Ever the innovators, she and her sister-in-law set out to solve an enduring problem in the industry: a lack of vendor collaboration over client management. In 2018, Elizabeth and Nora launched Rock Paper Coin, the first-ever software to bring together event planners, couples, and vendors into one system for managing contracts, paying invoices, and sharing documents.
