Are Your MSME or Work Files Ready to Go Storage in Digital?
Paperless?
Considering a paperless future for your MSME or professional work online? Discover how digital storage offers money-saving opportunities, efficiency, and scalability for WFH jobs and MSMEs. While the future is paperless, a mixed approach with printed documents is still necessary for Pasig LGU requirements.
Online Digital Storage?
Going digital in storage is what paperless is all about. Go for free digital storage services at first and then opt for a subscription when your WFH Job or MSME scales up and needs a larger storage amount. Google One is a key option since it offers AI functionality integrated with the subscription. Microsoft OneDrive is another option especially if you opted for the extended security updates (ESU) in your Windows 10 laptop.
Discover the right mix of both printed paper documents and digital files for your MSME in the Philippines.

Both printed paper documents and digital files storage
The Pasig LGU still processes printed paper documents in its Business Permit and Licensing Division (BPLD). Small adjustments are only necessary in whatever is being asked for in MSME business registration or renewal.
The Pasig LGU has moved many registration processes and payments to Ayala Mall the 30th. It has also transferred some of its registration and renewal processing of documents in a temporary location in Rosario, Pasig. The documents that are in need of print are the certificate of business name registration from the DTI and the MSME certificate of authority. Printing is not a problem since many retail print shops abound in the City (and in the temporary location at Rosario, Pasig). And you can store digital files of the DTI certificates in OneDrive or Google Drive for printing upon renewal of your MSME.
Is investing in a printer still worth it?
Yes, it can save more time and money if the MSME needs to print in bulk instead of outsourcing it to retail print shops.
The Future is Paperless
The latest articles online say the direction of the future is paperless.
This is the direction the country is also following as it adopts new technologies.
The direction for digital storage is a wise decision to make since the Philippines is opening up to world trade. In the global arena, whether micro, small, medium, or large, all businesses in the Philippines are now adapting to advancing technologies in work and business.
Going for digital files storage is not only a cost-effective direction; it is a decision for efficiency, productivity, and the capability to scale your business in the long term.
One element of success is the readiness and agility to shift strategies more quickly. Uncertainties in the global economy are not good news, but they are opportunities for small businesses to enter niche markets which larger businesses have withdrawn from. Flexibility os key. As digital file storage is integrating with AI capabilities, then a small business can shift quickly to this new opportunity.
It is important now to stay focused on the basics - the fundamentals. Anyone who fosters a positive attitude and cultivates a growth mindset is certainly poised for success as the local and global economy revives. These are the areas of one's success: to stay focused and work in one's area of control, experience, expertise, and authority.
