To help small business owners along these lines, Carbonite is offering a free one year subscription to My Organized Biz readers. Here’s some information from them:

It’s never too late for small business owners to consider how they can best organize and prepare for potentially catastrophic affects such as fires, natural disasters or hard drive failures. The U.S. Small Business Administration estimates that a quarter of small businesses that have to temporarily close during a disaster never reopen. The U.S. Department of Labor has estimated that figure as high as 40 percent. As a result, small businesses should look no further than a solid online backup resource to keep the data safe and offsite.

Online data backup services, like Carbonite, offer the peace-of-mind of affordable, simple and unlimited backup that’s available no matter what happens to your computer. It takes the hassle out of protecting the irreplaceable data filed and created on computers. Files are automatically and securely backed up over the Internet and stored safely offsite for easy, on-demand retrieval – perchance the inevitable happens, your files are lost. Carbonite can be purchased for $49.95 per year for unlimited backup at www.carbonite.com, and also offers free 15-day risk-free trials.

A one year subscription is valued at $49.95. Go over to Carbonite’s site and take a look at the details of this product. Then come back and leave a comment, telling us how you think Carbonite can help your business.
