Secure File Transfer
This service removes, once and for all, the problems, hassles, and waste caused since the Internet began with trying to send large attachments through the e-mail system.
Every Planner, other professionals, and most business people know of these problems and for some it's a major cost to overcome and often an embarrassment as well. This system is extremely secure whereas e-mails are not. You might even consider using it for documents where confidentiality requires more than even the Post or a Courier can offer.
Some examples of how this facility is being used.
- Every Planner has a number of clients who are more paranoid than others about how their personal information is transferred from their Planner, Accountant, Solicitor, Doctor, etc. The 6-8% Rule indicates this percentage fall into this category. Hence, for a significant part of your client base you can offer something they get no where else and something that they need.
- Other Planners, to ensure clients are regularly visiting their website, 'send' any important mail through this system.
- Others use it for any large file to remove the problematic nature of large attachments and Internet limitations and SPAM filters.
- Others offer this services to their larger clients as a way of differentiating that group from others.
- Others us it for an internal staff file transfer system when working remotely.
- Others with widely dispersed clients use it to upload files they want when visiting distant parts.
Others are simply happy to promote it as one of a suite of extra services they offer to demonstrate the extra effort they go to to help.
A good audit trail also.
When a file is uploaded the system automatically advises the Sendee by e-mail. When the Sendee clicks o the file and downloads it the Sender receives an e-mail saying so. This happens in reverse also and there have been cases when a recipient claims not to have received a document but the Sender has an e-mail notification that they did.
Finally, you might even consider telling your clients of this service, as they too have a need to transfer larger files to their clients and Secure FTP will solve their problems as well.
Secure FTP works via a button on your web site. When clicked on, a log in screen appears where you enter a Username and Password.
When a file is uploaded it's encrypted and this isn't reversed until the intended recipient downloads it.
This service can be added to almost any website.
