If you’re in business you’ll understand the importance of personal contacts. These days we use our mobile telephones as electronic personal assistants to store all of these vital business contact details, to do lists, appointments and reminders. But do we ensure that our valuable business data is backed up in case our phones are lost or damaged?
Mobile phone providers have estimated that fewer than 15% of users actually back up their telephone data. Its worth taking a few moments to consider what would happen if you lost all of the contact details you have on your mobile phone. Consider if you have all of these vital details stored safely elsewhere?
These days I don’t take any risks and backup my telephone data every day. This is a new routine for me that only began after I’d lost my last mobile phone while hiking. The impact of this loss was enormous. I’d accumulated numerous contacts whose details were held solely on my mobile phone. The cost to my business of my losing these was immense. These days I backup my phone data every day. And I have my phone covered with mobile phone insurance to pay for a replacement the next time I lose it, which is bound to happen sooner or later.
If you are now worried about how to back up your phone data it should simply be a matter of taking a look at the applications that came with your phone. If it’s a Sony, Nokia or similar then you will have been provided with a disk full of applications that will include the facility to copy all of your telephone data to your computer. If you ever lose or replace your phone it should be a simple matter of copying the data back from your computer to your replacement handset.
