Backing up your business data: never lose everything
A lost, stolen or broken phone, a soaked notebook: if your whole business is in one place, an accident can wipe out months of work. A good backup protects you.
What to protect
- The history of sales and expenses.
- Stock and purchase prices.
- The customer list and the credit they owe you.
- Your suppliers and important documents.
The two-copy rule
Always keep at least two copies of your data in two different places: for example the device and an online service, or the device and a USB stick. A single copy is a risk.
Back up regularly
A backup from last year is useless. Make one every week or month, depending on activity, and note the date. A monthly Excel export is also a good file for your accountant.
Protect access
Lock the phone with a code or fingerprint, do not share your codes, and give each seller their own access. If it is lost, you can recover your data from another device.

Backing up your business data: never lose everything
What if my phone is lost or stolen?
Sign in from another device with your number and code: your data is on the server. Remember to change your codes.
How often should you back up?
Every week or month depending on your activity, and an end-of-month Excel export is a good habit.
