Are you trying to come up with a strong computer business name? If you are having trouble landing on that perfect way to brand yourself, think about one of the most critical concepts of running a successful computer business… your role as a Virtual CIO for your clients.
When you build your entire business around being a Virtual CIO for local companies, you get the advantage of working on end-to-end solutions that need to be maintained and expanded on over time. And when your company name reflects this concept, you help build a brand for yourself that attracts steady, high-paying clients that recognize the importance of computers to running successful businesses and will need you for many years to come.
The following 4 tips will help you understand your role as a Virtual CIO, so you can decide on an effective computer business name that reflects your unique expertise and attracts the best small business clients.
- Know What CIO Means. If you are going to choose a computer business name based on the idea of the CIO, you of course will have to understand what this concept means. In a medium-sized or enterprise-sized company, you will almost always find a CIO or chief information officer on payroll. Although this person is not generally as important as a CEO, a CIO is still a trusted business manager, trusted for his/her extensive expertise in technology. Because you are working with small business clients that have a lot of IT challenges but are too small to have a full-time CIO on payroll in most cases, you become a Virtual CIO for your clients. You may wish to reflect this concept in your computer business name, so you immediately communicate the problem you solve for your clients.
- A Virtual CIO-Related Computer Business Name Helps Position Your Firm in the Marketplace. You can’t make the Virtual CIO concept an afterthought when you are coming up with your full brand, including your name, logo and business plan. Why? Because how you position you and your company makes an enormous difference on the hourly billing rates you can command with your clients. A strong name based on your mission to provide end-to-end business solutions should convey that you are an expert and the only rational choice for your target small business prospects.
- Be Prepared to Deliver the Goods as Virtual CIO. If your company had complicated financial needs that included expanding payroll, looming strategic acquisitions or expanding to a different business model, would you feel more comfortable getting advice from a freelance bookkeeper, a freelance accountant, a freelance CPA, or a freelance Virtual CFO? Of course, you would want someone that is an expert in more than just one area of finances and could give you the total package. The same thing applies with your small business clients and the whole Virtual CIO concept, which is why you need to build your computer business name around it. A small business that has a need for things like a high-end database management application, a mission-critical point of sale network, a highly-visible e-commerce site, regulatory IT requirements, and a need to integrate the systems of a recently acquired competitor needs you to be that end-to-end, one-stop solution.
- Being the Virtual CIO Self-Selects the Best Small Business Clients. When you brand yourself as a Virtual CIO, you help create a decisive strategy for targeting and qualifying small business prospects. A name based on the Virtual CIO concept helps you show you want to be involved with your clients at high strategic levels. It also pretty much guarantees that you will work on projects with very measurable business results and ROI and command the highest hourly billing rates in your area for your services. When your name reflects the idea of truly sophisticated technology solutions, you help build a client roster primarily with those small businesses that need to retain your high-end, premium Virtual CIO services, vs. plain, ordinary break-fix repair and systems integration with no long-term potential.
In this brief article we discussed 4 tips to help you understand why you need to choose a computer business name that supports the whole Virtual CIO concept.

Help answer the question about business management
What is a good college to attend if wanting a degree in Business Management?I'm considering attending FIDM basically becuase it has to do with fashion and business management.
I want to be an Apparel Business Owner/Entrepreneur.
I'm trying to keep my options open and few other learning institutes.
Government or private should not matter. Understand the purpose of this organization and its customer. Understand what this customer needs and considers of value. Help workers understand this and have them do more of what is valuable and less of what is waste.
Honestly, Its everything. So I choose
e. All the above
Although it is predominantly done by the owners or senior management of a business, business management comprises of all the points u had mentioned.
You are god! You explained it in 6 minutes what my lecturer couldn’t in a whole semester! You are my quickfire exams cheat sheet!
Thank you so much i wish i had seen your video’s way earlier thank you.
AMAZING lesson you are so good at explaining.
Hiiiiiii..
I think you have to choose the Marketing section in Human Resource Management(HRM) because in marketing you get the nice job in the good reputed company on a high post..
I have a Business Management degree and have worked at a non-profit. My choices were not as broad as yours, but here is what I did. I choose general management. Choices were supply chain, general, finance and one other that I can't remember. I went back later on and got a second degree in marketing. Marketing really helped me because all business basics are covered but marketing is always necessary in whatever you do. You have to be able to keep your client happy, you have to be able to attract them into doing business with you. My second degree has actually been favorably looked upon. Maybe you can try something like that.
wow!!! superb!!!
Yep, most degrees are NOT confined to just one area of careers. With that business degree and depending on the school system, you might be able to teach in some of their schools.
u did some great job dude! its so clear to me now!
can you use blue chalk in more of your videos i like it. thanks!
Excellent video. Can you do one on empirical demand function ?
i like fast company
As to whether it is necessary to have the degree, the answer is no. The only time it is truly necessary to have a degree is when you wish to be hired by an existing company that requires a degree, or when you wish to be credentialed for for some practice that requires a degree, such as medicine or engineering.
The things you should get from the degree include business computing skills, business communication, a bit of human resources, possibly a good internship, and maybe some other things like marketing and job seeking skills. I would get ahold of their catalog and read the course description for every course in the curriculum. If the descriptions sound like things that could be useful to you then you might give it a shot.
Alternatively, you might just take only the classes you're most interested in. It's likely that the community college offers a one year certificate with many of the same courses, so you might think of doing that instead.
I will offer one caveat – what if your plan doesn't work out and you decide you'd be better off with a bachelors or masters degree, like an MBA or MBF? The problem with the degree you're considering is that it is probably not a good choice should you decide to try to transfer. If you think you may eventually be interested in a four year degree or beyond, you might look into your community college's general studies curriculum. Also, check out to see whether this college has a career center. Those folks should be able to help you out. If not, speak to an advisor from the business program.
Good luck!
I NEVER leave feedback on youtube videos, even the ones I watch for entertainment. You have a gift period; Thanks you so much! Haha my teacher called our class “f$ucking idiots” today, and I must say that i do not feel like one anymore ; )
All business associate degree will give you a foundation in business management including accounting, marketing, sales economics etc…
When you pick a focus like marketing, human resources etc… you will then take 3-5 courses that go deeper into that concentration.
A business management concentration will go deeper into managing people (HR), processes (IT, operations), money (finance/accounting) ..All the knowledge one would need to Supervise and manage a business as a whole.
A marketing management concentrartion will go deeper into educating tthe public about a company's products and persuading them to buy those products. You will learn more about sales, advertising, public relations, consumer behavior and media.
In terms of business administration, there isn't really that much of a difference. A hotel is a company selling a product. Big chain hotels function as multinational companies just like any other.
Hotels as companies follow the same business laws but have some specific industry laws (reimbursement, accounting, VAT breakdown, insurance, etc.) However, every sector has its specific laws.
The main difference is that a hotel sells services to clients that come into the hotel to consume the product (roomnight, seminar, dinner, etc). A "non service" company will sell a product to a customer who will take the product somewhere else to consume (car, washing machine, etc.). So the selling/marketing process works differently. But that doesn't concern management that much.
In order to build on your hotel experience you should try a school that has less marketing and more human resources and accounting studies. Most of the good hotel managers I know, have been front office or revenue managers (former sales managers have the people skills but not always the operations experience). But that's only my own experience.
If, on the other hand, you want to leave hotel business completely, than you should try a sales orientation. If there is one thing you learn in hotels, it's dealing with people. So there you could try marketing, sales, PR studies and get your foot into business through customer service/care.
I hope I answered some bits
thank you, great lecture
