IT That Earns Its Keep

Twenty-five years of IT experience means we've seen what works and what doesn't. We focus on the practical: getting your infrastructure secure, your email authenticated, and your data protected without turning it into a full-time project for you.

"I'm just so happy with the service. Ross, I can't believe what a difference it makes to know that our domain's email system is safe and protected. Your report is one of the best investments I have made for our organizational peace of mind. The reports are easy to understand and interpret - everyone should be using this service."

Industries We Know Well

We focus on businesses where IT isn't just an overhead cost. Where a breach has real consequences for your clients, your reputation, and your practice.

Accountants & Accounting Firms

Client financial data, tax records, corporate structures. We understand the software ecosystem and the regulatory expectations that come with it.

Immigration & Boutique Consultants

Passport data, legal statuses, personal histories. The security requirements are serious, and so are the consequences of getting them wrong.

Creators, Performers & Speakers

Platform accounts, subscriber data, unpublished content, speaking contracts. Your digital presence is your career. We protect it.

Agencies & Design Houses

Client assets under NDA, unpublished campaigns, confidential briefs. Agencies carry IP risk that rarely matches their security investment.

Twenty-Five Years of IT, Put to Work for Your Business

Ross Saunders founded gotaminute? after managing multinational helpdesks and heading IT functions at large enterprises. The goal was straightforward: bring enterprise-grade thinking to the businesses that need it most but can't afford a full-time IT department.

The trust issues are real. That's what makes the work good.

Straight Answers

How much does gotaminute? charge?

$150/hour, with a 1-hour minimum and 30-minute increments after that. Where the scope allows it, we provide flat-rate estimates upfront so you know what you're getting into before we start.

Do you work remotely?

Yes, and for most clients that's the point. Cloud-based businesses don't have IT infrastructure to visit — and for organisations with on-site IT staff, the strategy and security direction we provide happens above the physical layer anyway. We work across provinces and internationally.

Do you sign NDAs and data processing agreements?

Yes. Data Processing Agreements and NDAs are available on request. If your clients require it of you, we understand that you require it of us.

What's the first step?

The free Threat Vitals scorecard is a good starting point. It covers six areas of security risk and takes about ten minutes. If you'd rather talk first, the contact form works too. Either way, we'll get a clear picture of where to begin.
