Cloud, data, digital storage: We are all becoming familiar with these terms, but what about paper documents for your business? We all know that business documents are being increasingly moved to digital formats and being stored online. What about your actual paper documents?. If you’re like most business owners you will want to keep at least one hard copy of important business documents in hand. In fact the IRS recommends you keep business documents for tax purposes for at least 6 years or until they are no longer relevant. That is why safe, secure and reliable document storage is so important.
You don’t have to do it yourself. There is often too much of it to keep at your business and it can be cumbersome.
