Complete Business IT Setup — Western Sydney Startup Ready in One Day
Four staff. Four laptops. A new office. Zero IT infrastructure. Sorted in 8 hours.
The Situation
A professional services startup in Western Sydney signed a lease on their first office and needed to be fully operational in one week. They had four staff, four new laptops, a broadband connection, and no IT setup whatsoever — no email domain, no shared files, no printing, no security. Their deadline was Monday morning. They called TechFix Pro on the Wednesday.
What We Found On The First Visit
A completely blank slate — four unboxed laptops still in their packaging, an NBN box connected to the wall, and a network switch in a box. No domain, no email, no server, no printers. The founders had been using personal Gmail accounts for business. Client documents were scattered across personal Google Drive accounts with no shared access or version control. No passwords were managed — each person maintained their own list in a notes app. The security posture was non-existent: no endpoint protection, no backup, no MFA on any account, personal and business data commingled.
How We Set It Up
**Microsoft 365 Business Standard — the core platform:** All four users set up with professional email (@theirdomain.com.au), Teams, SharePoint for shared files, OneDrive for personal file sync, and full Office suite. Email migrated from personal Gmail accounts to the new business addresses. **Network:** NBN configured for business use. Business-grade router installed with separate staff and guest WiFi networks. All four laptops joined to a managed network. **Security:** Multi-factor authentication enabled on all accounts. Microsoft Defender for Business deployed across all laptops (included in the Microsoft 365 plan). Password manager (1Password) set up for all staff. Automatic cloud backup configured for all OneDrive and SharePoint content. **Printing:** Networked laser printer configured for all four users — wireless printing from all laptops. **Training:** One-hour group session covering Teams basics, SharePoint file sharing, email best practices and security awareness.
The Outcome
Eight hours of on-site work across Thursday and Friday. The team arrived Monday morning to professional email, shared files, working printers, secure laptops and a proper IT foundation. Monthly IT cost: Microsoft 365 licences at $22 per user per month — less than their previous coffee budget.
What every new Western Sydney business needs from day one
Microsoft 365 is the right foundation for almost every small business
Professional email on your domain, Teams for communication, SharePoint for shared documents, cloud backup and enterprise security — all in one subscription from $8–$22 per user per month. It scales as you grow and is the standard platform your clients and partners already use.
Security is not optional, even for small businesses
67% of cyberattacks target small businesses precisely because they assume they are too small to be a target. Multi-factor authentication, endpoint protection and cloud backup take one day to set up and prevent the majority of incidents.
Set it up right from day one
Migrating a team from personal accounts to proper business systems after the fact is significantly harder and more disruptive than doing it correctly at the start. An 8-hour setup investment at the beginning saves days of cleanup later.
You do not need a full-time IT person
A one-day setup and periodic ongoing support covers the IT needs of most small businesses. Managed IT services from TechFix Pro give you professional support without the cost of a full-time employee.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a business IT setup cost?

How long does a business IT setup take?
A complete setup for 4–6 staff including Microsoft 365, networking, security and training typically takes one full day (8 hours) on-site.
Do you provide ongoing IT support after setup?
Yes. We offer flexible ongoing support for Western Sydney businesses — ad-hoc support as needed, monthly retainer packages, or managed IT with proactive monitoring. Most small businesses we set up stay with us for ongoing support.
Can you migrate our existing files and emails?
Yes. We migrate existing emails, contacts, calendars and files from personal or previous business accounts to your new Microsoft 365 setup. In most cases, migration is seamless with zero data loss.
