If you've been wondering how to implement AI in a way that works for your small business, this is where to figure it out.

We're hosting a 60 minute working session on June 23 at 10 AM MST with Mark Perez of Ticomix. We'll cover real examples of how teams are using Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude. We'll also talk about the very real security risks of allowing the use of personal AI accounts in the work place.

If your IT provider only shows up when something breaks, you don't have an IT partner. You've got an emergency contact.

Plenty of small and mid-sized businesses have relied on a "computer guy" or a small shop for years. It feels simple. It feels cost-effective. But between those service calls, no one's monitoring systems, applying patches, testing backups, or planning for what comes next. That gap is where real risk lives.

Our latest article breaks down the difference between reactive break-fix support and proactive managed IT, and why the businesses that invest in the latter spend far less time in crisis mode.

Your Old IT Vendor Isn't Managing You. They're Waiting for Something to Break. - Greeley, Loveland, Fort Collins | Connecting Point There's a version of IT support that most small businesses know well: you call someone when something stops working, they fix it, they send a bill, and you don't hear from them again until the next thing breaks. Which was fine when technology was simpler. But in today’s fast moving business enviro...

AI is everywhere in the headlines. But for most small and mid-sized businesses, the question isn't "should we use AI?" It's "what does AI actually do for us day to day?"

The honest answer: on its own, not much. Small business owners should be looking at AI in terms of practical applications. Automation tools instead of the sort of Virtual Assistant you see in the movies.

AI becomes valuable when it's built into the systems your team already relies on, monitored by people who understand your environment, and tuned to solve real problems. That's where a managed service provider changes the conversation.

Here's what practical, MSP-managed AI looks like:

• Automated threat detection that flags unusual activity across your network before it becomes a breach
• Smarter ticket routing and response, so issues reach the right technician faster
• Patch and update automation that keeps systems current without disrupting your team
• Backup monitoring that verifies recovery points are actually usable, not just running
• Endpoint behavior analysis that catches ransomware patterns earlier than traditional tools

That's what AI looks like when it's applied with sound judgment and backed by a team that knows when to step in.

At Connecting Point, we're focused on the practical side of AI. The kind that quietly protects your business, saves your team time, and lets you focus on the work that actually moves your company forward.
