technology planning for later life
Helping families stay organised, secure & prepared.
Technology is now part of every aspect of our lives. Phones, computers, email, photos, subscriptions, passwords and online services all contain important information that families may need one day.
That is why I created Solved Technology Planning for Later Life.
I'll help organise and document your technology arrangements so that you and your loved ones can navigate life's unexpected events with confidence. I can also provide the tools to enable families to document this themselves.
It's also an opportunity for you to record what should happen to your online presence when you can no longer manage it yourself.
Your family might already know where the Will is, but do they know:
✓ How to unlock your phone?
✓ Where your important photos are?
✓ What happens to your email?
✓ Which subscriptions keep charging?
✓ Who to contact about your technology?
✓ How to access your online accounts?

Your technology planning package OPTIONS
Guided Technology Planning — $249
Would you prefer to work through your Technology Plan yourself, but want some help getting started?
With Guided Technology Planning, I’ll visit you at home, install the Technology Planning App on your computer and show you how it works. We’ll get you started together, and then you can complete your plan in your own time.
The app takes you step-by-step through the important information about your technology — your devices, accounts, passwords, important files and photos, online services, and the information someone else may need if you become unable to manage things yourself.
The $249 Guided Technology Planning package includes:
-
Your own copy of the Technology Planning App
-
Installation and setup on your computer
-
Up to one hour with Suzanne to show you how everything works and get you started
-
A simple illustrated Getting Started guide to refer to afterwards
-
The ability to create and update your Technology Plan whenever you need to
-
A PDF copy of your completed plan that you can save, share with someone you trust, or print
You don’t need to be particularly confident with technology. I’ll make sure everything is installed and working and that you know what to do before I leave.
Prefer some more help?
If you’d rather have me work through the whole process with you, the Full Technology Planning service is $499 and includes up to three hours of one-to-one help, plus a professionally printed Technology Planning Binder.
Additional help is always available at my normal hourly rate.
