How Can We Help?

VSF Technology is a business technology marketplace and consulting company headquartered in Tampa Bay, FL. We help growing businesses discover, compare, buy, and implement the right technology — including websites, hosting, domains, business email, CRM, phone systems, AI tools, SEO, Google Ads, chatbots, and automation. Think of us as your outsourced technology department: we handle the setup, configuration, and ongoing support so you can focus on running your business.

We work primarily with small to mid-size businesses across all industries — from professional services and healthcare to retail, construction, and e-commerce. Whether you're a solo entrepreneur just getting started or a 50-person company looking to upgrade your technology stack, we have services and solutions that fit your stage and budget.

Yes. While we're based in Tampa Bay, FL, we serve businesses nationwide. Our remote-first service model allows us to provide the same expert technology consulting and implementation support to businesses anywhere in the United States. We use video calls, screen sharing, and project management tools to collaborate seamlessly with clients across the country.

Percy is our AI-powered business technology consultant, available 24/7 on every page of our website. Percy can answer questions about our services, recommend technology solutions based on your specific business needs, help you compare tools, and connect you with our team. It's trained on VSF Technology's full service catalog and is designed to give you real, actionable answers — not generic responses.

Our office is located at 17633 Gunn Highway Suite 178, Odessa, FL 33556, in the Tampa Bay area. We serve clients both locally in the Tampa Bay region and nationwide via remote services. You can reach us by phone at 813-606-4171 or by email at [email protected].

We are both. VSF Technology is an authorized reseller and implementation partner for dozens of leading technology platforms — including GoDaddy, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, RingCentral, Nextiva, and more. We earn referral commissions from some partners, but our recommendations are always based on what's genuinely best for your business. We also provide independent consulting and implementation services regardless of which vendor you choose.

The easiest way to get started is to schedule a free 30-minute technology consultation. During this call, we'll learn about your business, understand your current technology setup, identify gaps and opportunities, and recommend the best path forward. You can book directly at the link below, call us at 813-606-4171, or use the Percy chat widget to describe your needs and get an immediate response.

During your free 30-minute consultation, we'll ask about your business goals, current technology tools, biggest pain points, and budget. We'll then walk you through our recommended solutions and explain what's involved in implementation. There's no pressure and no obligation — the goal is simply to help you understand your options and make a confident decision.

It helps to know: (1) what technology you're currently using (website platform, email provider, CRM, etc.), (2) what problems you're trying to solve or goals you're trying to reach, (3) your approximate budget range, and (4) your timeline. Don't worry if you don't have all of this — we can help you figure it out during the consultation.

For most projects, we can begin within 1–3 business days of signing an agreement. Simple setups like business email or domain registration can often be completed same-day or next-day. Larger projects like WordPress website builds or CRM implementations are scoped and scheduled based on complexity and current availability.

No. Most of our implementation services are one-time project fees with no long-term commitment required. For ongoing services like website maintenance, SEO, or monthly retainer support, we offer month-to-month plans. We believe in earning your business every month — not locking you in.

We offer both. Our AI Website Builds use modern, professionally designed templates that are fully customized to your brand — colors, fonts, content, and imagery. For businesses that need a fully unique design with custom functionality, we build bespoke WordPress websites from scratch. During your consultation, we'll help you determine which approach is the right fit for your goals and budget.

Yes, absolutely. Every website we build is fully responsive and mobile-optimized. With over 60% of web traffic now coming from mobile devices, mobile-friendliness is a core requirement — not an optional add-on. We test every site across multiple screen sizes and devices before delivery.

Yes. All websites we build include foundational SEO setup: proper heading structure (H1–H3), meta titles and descriptions, fast loading speeds, SSL certificate, XML sitemap, robots.txt, Google Analytics integration, and Google Search Console submission. We also offer advanced SEO services for businesses that want to rank for competitive keywords.

Yes. We offer website redesign services for businesses with an outdated site or one that isn't generating leads. We can redesign your site while preserving your existing content, URL structure, and SEO rankings. We'll audit your current site first and provide a clear plan before any work begins.

Yes. We build e-commerce websites using WooCommerce (WordPress) and other platforms. We handle product catalog setup, payment gateway integration (Stripe, PayPal, Square), shipping configuration, tax setup, and security hardening. We can also migrate your existing store from Shopify, Squarespace, or other platforms.

A standard website project includes: discovery and planning, design mockup approval, full development and content integration, mobile optimization, SEO foundation setup, speed optimization, SSL certificate, contact form setup, Google Analytics integration, and a training session so you can manage your site going forward. We also provide 30 days of post-launch support.

WordPress powers over 43% of all websites on the internet for good reason: it's flexible, scalable, SEO-friendly, and supported by thousands of plugins that extend its functionality. Unlike proprietary website builders (GoDaddy Website Builder, Wix, Squarespace), WordPress gives you full ownership and portability of your site. You're never locked into a single platform.

A standard WordPress website setup typically takes 5–10 business days, depending on the complexity of the project and how quickly you provide content and feedback. This includes hosting setup, WordPress installation, theme configuration, page building, plugin setup, SEO foundation, and testing. Rush timelines are available for an additional fee.

Yes. We troubleshoot and fix WordPress issues including broken layouts, plugin conflicts, slow loading speeds, white screen of death, hacked sites, failed updates, and database errors. Contact us with a description of the issue and we'll provide a diagnosis and fix estimate.

Yes. We migrate websites from GoDaddy Website Builder, Wix, Squarespace, Weebly, and other platforms to WordPress. We preserve your content, images, and URL structure to protect your existing SEO rankings. The migration process typically takes 3–7 business days.

Yes. Our WordPress maintenance service includes weekly plugin and theme updates, security monitoring, daily backups, uptime monitoring, performance checks, and monthly reports. Keeping WordPress updated is critical — outdated plugins are the #1 cause of WordPress hacks.

We primarily use Elementor and Divi for WordPress page building, as they offer the best balance of flexibility, performance, and ease of use. For clients who want to manage their own content after launch, we provide training on whichever builder we use. We also build with the native WordPress block editor (Gutenberg) for simpler sites.

An AI Website Build uses AI-assisted design and development tools to create a professional, modern website significantly faster than traditional methods. We use AI to generate initial layouts, write SEO-optimized copy, select imagery, and configure technical settings — then our team reviews, customizes, and refines everything to match your brand. The result is a high-quality website delivered in 2–3 business days instead of 2–3 weeks.

An AI Website Build is faster and more affordable, making it ideal for businesses that need a professional online presence quickly. A custom WordPress build offers more design flexibility, custom functionality, and is better suited for complex projects with unique requirements. Both options include SEO foundation setup, mobile optimization, and post-launch support.

No. While AI tools accelerate the process, every AI Website Build is customized to your brand — your colors, fonts, logo, content, and imagery. We don't publish cookie-cutter sites. Our team reviews and refines every AI-generated element before delivery to ensure it looks professional and unique to your business.

Yes. AI Website Builds are built on platforms that include an easy-to-use content editor. We provide a training session after launch so you can update text, images, and pages without needing a developer. For more complex changes, our team is available for ongoing support.

Every AI Website Build includes: up to 5 pages (Home, About, Services, Contact, and one additional page), brand customization, SEO-optimized copy, stock imagery, mobile optimization, SSL certificate, contact form, Google Analytics setup, and 30 days of post-launch support. Additional pages and features are available as add-ons.

We offer a comprehensive range of SEO services: on-page SEO (meta tags, headings, content optimization), technical SEO (site speed, crawlability, schema markup, Core Web Vitals), local SEO (Google Business Profile, local citations, map rankings), AI SEO (AI-accelerated content creation and keyword research), and content SEO (blog strategy, pillar pages, topical authority). We also offer SEO audits for businesses that want a clear picture of where they stand.

SEO is a long-term investment. Most businesses start seeing measurable improvements in rankings and traffic within 3–6 months of consistent optimization. Competitive keywords in major markets may take 6–12 months. Local SEO for less competitive markets can show results in 4–8 weeks. We set realistic expectations upfront and provide monthly reporting so you can track progress.

AI SEO uses machine learning tools to accelerate keyword research, generate optimized content, identify technical issues, and analyze competitor strategies at a scale and speed that traditional manual SEO can't match. We use AI to produce high-quality, SEO-optimized blog posts, landing pages, and meta content faster — allowing us to build topical authority more quickly and rank for more keywords in less time.

Yes. Our SEO audit analyzes your website's technical health, on-page optimization, backlink profile, keyword rankings, competitor landscape, and content gaps. You receive a prioritized action plan with specific recommendations. Audits are available as a standalone service or as part of an ongoing SEO engagement.

No reputable SEO company can guarantee specific rankings — Google's algorithm is complex and constantly changing. What we can guarantee is that we follow Google's best practices, use proven white-hat techniques, and work consistently to improve your rankings over time. We provide transparent monthly reporting so you can see exactly what's improving.

We track organic traffic, keyword rankings, click-through rates, conversion rates, and leads generated from organic search. We set up Google Analytics 4, Google Search Console, and rank tracking tools so you have full visibility into your SEO performance. Monthly reports summarize progress and outline the next month's priorities.

Local SEO focuses on helping your business appear in local search results and Google Maps when people search for services in your area. If you serve customers in a specific geographic area — like Tampa Bay, Orlando, or anywhere else — local SEO is essential for driving foot traffic, phone calls, and local leads. It's how customers find you when they search "plumber near me" or "best restaurant in Tampa."

Our Local SEO service includes: Google Business Profile optimization and management, local keyword research and on-page optimization, local citation building (consistent NAP listings across 50+ directories), review strategy and management, local link building, and monthly reporting on map rankings and local traffic. We also optimize your website's location pages for local search.

Google Maps rankings (the "Local Pack") are influenced by three main factors: relevance (how well your listing matches the search), distance (how close you are to the searcher), and prominence (how well-known and trusted your business is online). We improve all three by optimizing your Google Business Profile, building local citations, generating reviews, and creating locally-relevant content on your website.

Yes. We build review generation systems that make it easy for your satisfied customers to leave Google reviews. This includes automated follow-up emails or SMS messages after a service, a custom review landing page, and staff training on how to ask for reviews. More reviews improve your Local SEO rankings and build trust with potential customers.

Yes. For businesses with multiple locations, we create and optimize individual location pages on your website and manage separate Google Business Profile listings for each location. This ensures each location ranks well in its own local market.

We set up and manage Google Ads (PPC) campaigns including search ads, display ads, remarketing campaigns, and Google Local Services Ads. We handle everything: keyword research, ad copywriting, bid strategy, audience targeting, landing page optimization, conversion tracking, and ongoing optimization. Our goal is to maximize your return on ad spend (ROAS) and lower your cost per lead over time.

We recommend a minimum ad spend of $500–$1,000/month for most local businesses to generate meaningful data and results. Competitive industries (legal, medical, home services) may require $2,000–$5,000+/month to compete effectively. Our management fee is separate from your ad spend. During your consultation, we'll analyze your market and recommend a realistic budget based on your goals.

Google Ads can generate leads within days of launch — unlike SEO, which takes months. However, campaigns typically need 30–60 days of data to optimize effectively. We continuously refine targeting, bids, and ad copy based on performance data to improve results over time.

Yes. If you're already running Google Ads but aren't happy with the results, we offer a Google Ads audit that identifies wasted spend, poor-performing keywords, quality score issues, and missed opportunities. We provide a clear report with specific recommendations for improvement.

Google Local Services Ads (LSAs) are a special ad format for local service businesses (plumbers, electricians, lawyers, etc.) that appear at the very top of Google search results with a "Google Guaranteed" badge. You only pay per lead — not per click. We set up and manage LSA campaigns for eligible businesses.

Google Business Profile (formerly Google My Business) is the free listing that appears in Google Maps and the local search results panel when people search for your business or services in your area. It shows your address, phone number, hours, reviews, photos, and website. An optimized Google Business Profile is one of the most powerful free marketing tools available to local businesses.

Yes. We set up new Google Business Profiles and optimize existing ones. Optimization includes: completing all business information fields, selecting the right primary and secondary categories, adding high-quality photos, writing an optimized business description, setting up services and products, configuring Q&A, and establishing a review generation strategy.

Yes. We can update your business name, address, phone number, hours, website URL, and other information. We also handle situations where a listing has been claimed by someone else, merged incorrectly, or suspended by Google. Contact us with the details and we'll resolve it.

Google reviews directly impact your Local SEO rankings, click-through rates, and customer trust. Businesses with more reviews and higher ratings rank higher in Google Maps and get more clicks. Studies show that 93% of consumers read online reviews before making a purchase decision. We help you build a consistent review generation system.

Marketing automation uses software to automatically send emails, text messages, and follow-ups based on customer behavior — like filling out a form, visiting a page, or making a purchase. Instead of manually following up with every lead, automation handles it for you 24/7. This means faster response times, more consistent follow-up, and more leads converted to customers without additional staff.

We work with HubSpot, Zoho CRM, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, VBOUT, ActiveCampaign, and Zapier/Make for workflow automation. We select the right tool based on your budget, existing tech stack, and the complexity of automation you need. We handle the full setup, integration, and testing.

Yes. We build automated email sequences for lead nurturing, welcome series, post-purchase follow-up, appointment reminders, re-engagement campaigns, and more. Each sequence is written, designed, and configured to match your brand voice and business goals.

Yes. We integrate your website contact forms, landing pages, and lead capture tools directly with your CRM so every new lead is automatically added, tagged, and assigned to the right pipeline stage. No more manually copying leads from email to spreadsheet to CRM.

VBOUT is an all-in-one marketing automation platform that combines email marketing, social media management, landing pages, lead scoring, and analytics in one tool. It's a cost-effective alternative to HubSpot for businesses that want powerful automation without enterprise pricing. We are an authorized VBOUT partner and can set it up for your business.

We set up and configure HubSpot, Salesforce, and Zoho CRM. Each platform has different strengths: HubSpot is excellent for growing businesses with its generous free tier and built-in marketing tools; Salesforce is the enterprise standard with unmatched customization; Zoho offers outstanding value for small to mid-size businesses. We help you choose the right one based on your team size, budget, and sales process.

Our CRM setup includes: account and workspace configuration, custom fields and deal stages tailored to your sales process, contact and company data import, email integration (Gmail or Outlook), user accounts and permissions, basic automation workflows (lead assignment, follow-up reminders), dashboard and reporting setup, and a team training session. We document everything so your team can manage it going forward.

Yes. We handle CRM migrations including contact records, deal history, notes, tasks, and custom fields. We map your existing data structure to the new platform and validate the migration before going live. We've migrated data from Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho, Pipedrive, Monday.com, and spreadsheets.

If you're managing more than 20–30 active leads or customers, a CRM will save you time and help you close more deals. Without a CRM, leads fall through the cracks, follow-ups get missed, and you have no visibility into your pipeline. HubSpot's free CRM is an excellent starting point for small businesses — we can set it up at no software cost.

Yes. We integrate CRMs with website contact forms, email marketing tools, phone systems, accounting software (QuickBooks, Xero), calendar apps, and more using Zapier, Make, or native integrations. The goal is a connected tech stack where data flows automatically between your tools.

An AI chatbot is a software program that uses artificial intelligence to simulate conversation with website visitors. It can answer common questions, capture lead information, qualify prospects, book appointments, and route inquiries to your team — all automatically, 24/7. Unlike rule-based chatbots that only follow scripts, AI chatbots understand natural language and can handle a wide range of questions.

For common, repetitive questions — yes. A well-built chatbot can handle 60–80% of incoming inquiries automatically: business hours, pricing, service descriptions, appointment booking, and basic troubleshooting. For complex or sensitive issues, the chatbot routes the conversation to a human. The result is faster response times and less burden on your team.

We train your chatbot on your specific business information: your services, pricing, FAQs, location, hours, team, and any other content you provide. We also configure the conversation flow to match your sales process — from initial greeting to lead capture to handoff. The chatbot is tested thoroughly before going live.

Yes. We configure chatbots to capture visitor name, email, phone, company, and service interest — and automatically send that data to your CRM, email inbox, or both. Every conversation is logged so you have a full record of what was discussed.

Chatbot setup pricing depends on the complexity of the conversation flows, the number of integrations, and the platform used. Contact us for a custom quote based on your specific requirements. We offer both one-time setup fees and ongoing management plans.

We offer a range of hosting solutions: shared hosting (affordable, great for small sites), cPanel hosting (full control, ideal for developers), VPS hosting (dedicated resources, better performance and security), Web Hosting Plus (enhanced performance for growing sites), and managed WordPress hosting via WP Engine (premium performance, automatic updates, and expert WordPress support). We work with GoDaddy, Bluehost, SiteGround, and WP Engine.

Shared hosting means your website shares server resources (CPU, RAM, storage) with hundreds of other websites on the same server. It's affordable but can be slow if neighboring sites use too many resources. VPS (Virtual Private Server) hosting gives you dedicated resources on a virtual machine — better performance, security, and scalability. We recommend VPS for businesses with growing traffic, e-commerce sites, or custom application requirements.

Yes. We handle website migrations from any hosting provider to your new host. We migrate all files, databases, email accounts, and DNS settings with zero downtime. The migration process typically takes 1–2 business days depending on site size.

Signs of hosting-related slowness include: consistently slow load times (over 3 seconds), frequent downtime, slow admin panel response, and poor performance during traffic spikes. We can run a performance audit to determine whether your hosting, code, or images are the primary cause of slowness — and recommend the right fix.

Managed WordPress hosting (like WP Engine) is a premium hosting service specifically optimized for WordPress. It includes automatic WordPress updates, daily backups, built-in security, a CDN for faster global loading, and expert WordPress support. It costs more than standard hosting but eliminates most maintenance headaches. We recommend it for businesses where their website is a critical revenue driver.

Yes. We help you search for, register, and configure your domain name through GoDaddy and other registrars. We also advise on domain selection — the right extension (.com, .net, .co, .io), length, and keywords to maximize brand recognition and SEO value. We handle the full DNS configuration to connect your domain to your website and email.

Yes. We handle domain transfers from any registrar (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Network Solutions, Google Domains, etc.) to your preferred registrar. The transfer process typically takes 5–7 days. We manage the authorization codes, unlock procedures, and DNS migration to ensure a seamless transition.

Domain privacy protection (WHOIS privacy) hides your personal contact information (name, address, phone, email) from the public WHOIS database. Without it, your information is publicly visible and can be harvested by spammers and marketers. We strongly recommend enabling domain privacy for all domain registrations — it typically costs $10–$15/year.

DNS (Domain Name System) is the system that connects your domain name to your website, email, and other services. DNS records tell the internet where to send traffic for your domain. We manage DNS configuration for website hosting, business email setup, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and other services. DNS changes typically take 24–48 hours to propagate globally.

Renew it immediately. If your domain expires, your website and email will go offline, and someone else could register it. Most registrars offer a 30-day grace period after expiration before the domain is released. If you're having trouble renewing or need help managing your domain, contact us at 813-606-4171 and we'll assist right away.

Using a @yourdomain.com email address instead of Gmail or Yahoo makes your business look more professional and credible. It builds trust with customers, improves email deliverability, and ensures your email is tied to your business — not a personal account. When an employee leaves, you keep control of the email address. It's one of the most affordable and impactful upgrades a small business can make.

We set up professional business email using Google Workspace (Gmail for Business) and Microsoft 365 (Outlook for Business). Both give you a @yourdomain.com email address with enterprise-grade security, generous storage, and collaboration tools. Google Workspace starts at $6/user/month; Microsoft 365 Business Basic starts at $6/user/month.

Google Workspace is built around Gmail, Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, and Meet — it's browser-first, excellent for collaboration, and works seamlessly on any device. Microsoft 365 is built around Outlook, OneDrive, Word, Excel, and Teams — it's ideal if your team is already familiar with Microsoft Office or needs desktop applications. We help you choose based on your team's workflow and preferences.

Yes. We handle email migrations from old providers — including GoDaddy email, cPanel email, Rackspace, and other platforms — to Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. We migrate your emails, contacts, and calendar data without loss. We schedule migrations during off-hours to minimize disruption.

Yes. We set up email accounts for your entire team, configure shared inboxes (like info@, support@, sales@), set up email aliases, configure email signatures, and establish security policies. We also provide a training session so your team knows how to use the new platform effectively.

An SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate encrypts data transmitted between your website and visitors, enabling the HTTPS protocol and displaying the padlock icon in browsers. Without SSL, browsers show a "Not Secure" warning that damages visitor trust and hurts your SEO rankings. Google uses HTTPS as a ranking signal, and many browsers now block or warn users about non-HTTPS sites. Every business website needs an SSL certificate.

The main types are: Domain Validation (DV) — basic encryption, issued in minutes, suitable for most websites; Organization Validation (OV) — verifies your organization's identity, better for business credibility; Extended Validation (EV) — highest level of validation, shows your company name in the browser bar, recommended for e-commerce and financial sites. We help you choose the right type for your needs.

Yes. We install and configure SSL certificates on any hosting platform. We also handle auto-renewal setup so your certificate never expires unexpectedly. An expired SSL certificate causes browsers to block your site with a security warning — we prevent that from happening.

Yes. A "Not Secure" warning usually means your SSL certificate is missing, expired, or misconfigured. We diagnose the issue, install or renew the certificate, and fix any mixed content issues (HTTP resources loading on an HTTPS page) that can trigger security warnings even with a valid certificate.

We offer: malware scanning and removal, web application firewall (WAF) setup, SSL certificate installation, WordPress security hardening (login protection, file permissions, security headers), two-factor authentication setup, security monitoring and alerts, and emergency hack recovery. We use industry-leading security tools to keep your website protected.

Yes — contact us immediately at 813-606-4171. If your website has been compromised, we perform a full malware scan, remove all malicious code, restore from a clean backup if needed, identify and close the vulnerability that was exploited, and implement security measures to prevent future attacks. We treat hacked website recovery as an emergency and prioritize it accordingly.

Signs of a hacked website include: Google showing a "This site may be hacked" warning in search results, your hosting provider suspending your account, visitors being redirected to spam sites, new admin users you didn't create, slow performance, or your site being blacklisted by security tools. If you notice any of these, contact us right away.

WordPress plugins and themes should be updated as soon as new versions are available — ideally weekly. Outdated plugins are the #1 cause of WordPress hacks. Our website maintenance service handles updates automatically, tests them before applying, and monitors for issues after updates are applied.

A WAF is a security layer that sits in front of your website and filters out malicious traffic — blocking hack attempts, SQL injection attacks, cross-site scripting (XSS), and brute force login attempts before they reach your site. We configure WAF protection through Cloudflare, Sucuri, or Wordfence depending on your hosting environment.

Our website maintenance service covers: weekly WordPress core, plugin, and theme updates; daily automated backups with 30-day retention; uptime monitoring (alerts within 5 minutes of downtime); monthly security scans; performance monitoring; content updates (text, images, pages); and a monthly report summarizing all activity. We also provide priority support for any issues that arise.

A website is not a "set it and forget it" asset. Without regular maintenance, WordPress plugins become outdated and vulnerable to hacks, backups may fail silently, performance degrades, and small issues become big problems. Regular maintenance keeps your site secure, fast, and functioning correctly — protecting your investment and your reputation.

Yes. Our maintenance plans include a set number of content update hours per month — adding new pages, updating text and images, adding blog posts, updating team members, and other routine changes. For larger content projects, we provide a separate quote.

Our uptime monitoring alerts us within 5 minutes of any downtime. We investigate the cause immediately and work to restore your site as quickly as possible. For maintenance plan clients, we prioritize downtime recovery above all other tasks. We also maintain recent backups so we can restore your site quickly if needed.

Yes. If you don't need an ongoing plan but have a specific task — like a plugin update that broke your site, a security issue, or a performance problem — we offer one-time maintenance and repair services. Contact us with a description of the issue and we'll provide a quote.

We publish in-depth technology comparison guides, how-to articles, and industry insights on our blog and resources section. Topics include hosting comparisons, CRM reviews, SEO guides, email platform comparisons, and technology buying guides. Our goal is to help business owners make informed technology decisions — whether they work with us or not.

Visit our Resources section at vsf.technology/resources/ for comparison guides covering hosting providers, CRM platforms, email marketing tools, phone systems, and more. We also publish regular blog posts at vsf.technology/blog/ covering technology news, tips, and best practices for small businesses.

We periodically publish free resources including technology audit checklists, website launch checklists, SEO audit templates, and technology buying guides. Subscribe to our newsletter or follow our blog to be notified when new resources are published.

We are authorized resellers and implementation partners for: GoDaddy, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, RingCentral, Nextiva, Semrush, Ahrefs, Mailchimp, Constant Contact, VBOUT, WP Engine, Cloudflare, Zapier, Make, Bluehost, and SiteGround. We continuously add new partners as we identify tools that deliver genuine value for our clients.

VSF Technology participates in affiliate and reseller programs with many of the technology providers we recommend. We may earn a commission when you purchase through our partner links at no additional cost to you. Our recommendations are always based on what's genuinely best for your business — not commission rates. We will always tell you if a free or lower-cost alternative is a better fit.

Absolutely. If you've already purchased a tool like Google Workspace, HubSpot, RingCentral, or any other platform, we can help you set it up and configure it correctly. Contact us for implementation support — we charge for our time, not the software.

In some cases, we can offer promotional pricing or bundled packages through our partner relationships. Contact us to ask about current promotions for specific tools you're interested in. We also help clients take advantage of free tiers and trials before committing to paid plans.

Technology consulting helps businesses assess their current tech stack, identify gaps and inefficiencies, and build a roadmap for improvement. Instead of making expensive technology decisions based on vendor sales pitches, you get independent, expert advice tailored to your specific business goals and budget. We help you avoid costly mistakes and implement the right tools in the right order.

A typical consulting engagement includes: a technology audit of your current tools and processes, identification of gaps, redundancies, and opportunities, vendor-neutral recommendations with cost-benefit analysis, an implementation roadmap with priorities and timelines, and ongoing advisory support as you execute the plan. We can also manage the implementation directly if you prefer.

Traditional IT companies focus on hardware, networks, and break-fix support. VSF Technology focuses on business technology — the software, platforms, and digital tools that drive marketing, sales, operations, and customer service. We help you grow your business with technology, not just keep the lights on.

Yes. We help businesses build realistic technology budgets by auditing current spending, identifying waste, and prioritizing investments that deliver the highest ROI. We provide vendor-neutral cost comparisons and help you negotiate better rates with technology providers.

You can reach us by phone at 813-606-4171 (Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm ET), by email at [email protected], through the contact form at vsf.technology/contact/, or via the Percy chat widget on any page of our website. For urgent issues (website down, hacked site), call us directly for the fastest response.

Our standard support hours are Monday–Friday, 9am–5pm Eastern Time. For maintenance plan clients, we monitor uptime 24/7 and respond to critical issues (site down, security breach) outside of business hours. Emergency support is available for an additional fee.

For maintenance plan clients, we respond to support requests within 4 business hours. For non-plan clients, we respond within 1 business day. For urgent issues (website down, hacked site), we prioritize immediately. We use a ticketing system to track all requests and ensure nothing falls through the cracks.

Yes. The majority of our support is provided remotely via screen sharing, video call, and remote access tools. This allows us to resolve most issues quickly without requiring an on-site visit. For clients in the Tampa Bay area, on-site support is available for an additional fee.

Our service pricing varies depending on the scope and complexity of the project. We offer free initial consultations to understand your needs and provide a custom quote. We believe in transparent pricing — you'll always know exactly what you're paying for before any work begins. Contact us or use the Percy chat to get a ballpark estimate for your specific project.

Yes. We offer free 30-minute technology consultations to help you understand your options and determine the best path forward for your business. There's no pressure and no obligation. Use the Book Meeting button on this page to schedule your free consultation.

Yes. For businesses that need ongoing support, we offer monthly retainer plans that cover a set number of hours for consulting, maintenance, updates, and support. Retainer clients receive priority response times, discounted hourly rates, and a dedicated point of contact. Contact us to discuss a retainer plan that fits your needs.

We accept all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), ACH bank transfers, and checks. For ongoing services, we set up automatic monthly billing for convenience. Invoices are sent via email and are due upon receipt unless otherwise agreed.

For setup and implementation services, we work with you until the project meets the agreed scope. If we fail to deliver what was promised, we will make it right. For subscription-based services, refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis. We don't believe in locking clients into services that aren't working — contact us if you have concerns and we'll find a fair resolution.

Our office is located at 17633 Gunn Highway Suite 178, Odessa, FL 33556, in the Tampa Bay area. We are conveniently located to serve businesses throughout Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Brandon, Wesley Chapel, Sarasota, and the greater Tampa Bay region.

Yes. Tampa is our primary local market. We serve businesses throughout Tampa including downtown Tampa, South Tampa, Ybor City, Hyde Park, Westchase, and surrounding neighborhoods. We offer both remote and on-site services for Tampa-area clients.

Yes. We serve businesses throughout the Pinellas County area including St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Largo, Dunedin, Safety Harbor, and Tarpon Springs. Most services are provided remotely, with on-site visits available for local clients.
