WHY CHOOSE US

Meet Andy Price – Founder & Cybersecurity Advocate

​​

I’m Andy Price, the founder of Initial IT. My journey into IT started at a young age, driven by pure curiosity. As a teenager, I spent hours taking apart computers just to understand how they worked. My dad, a natural problem-solver, fuelled that passion. I remember the pride of setting up a home network before the days of easy online tutorials. That moment sparked my career path—I knew I was meant to work with technology.

​

​

From Selling Computers to Securing Businesses

​

Breaking into the industry wasn’t easy. My first official IT role wasn’t what I imagined—I found myself testing circuit boards in a factory. It was dull and uninspiring, so I took a job at Dixons selling computers, hoping it would get me closer to where I wanted to be. Luck intervened when my dad introduced me to a friend who owned an IT company. He was looking for an apprentice, and I jumped at the opportunity. That was the true beginning of my IT career.

After working in the industry for several years, I noticed a pattern: IT providers made things unnecessarily complicated. Businesses weren’t getting the support they needed because the industry was too focused on jargon instead of people. In 2006, I founded Initial IT to change that. My mission was simple—help businesses navigate IT and cybersecurity without the headache.

​

​

​

The Highest Highs and the Toughest Lows

​

One of my proudest achievements was co-founding a cloud security business that grew to a £1 million annual turnover in just five years. Unfortunately, a fallout with my business partner led to my exit. Losing something I had built from the ground up was devastating, but it also became a defining moment. It forced me to rebuild, stronger and wiser. With the support of my wife, Corinne, and my daughters, I threw myself back into Initial IT with renewed determination.

​

​

Why Cybersecurity Matters More Than Ever

​

Businesses often assume cyber threats won’t happen to them—until they do. I’ve seen firsthand the damage a single cyberattack can cause, and my goal is to make sure my clients never have to experience that. Cybercriminals don’t discriminate, and today’s threats are more sophisticated than ever. That’s why our cybersecurity solutions focus on proactive protection, not just damage control.

​

At Initial IT, we handle everything from managed IT support to Microsoft 365 security and advanced cyber protection. Our team ensures that your business stays productive, compliant, and, most importantly, secure.

​

​

Beyond Business: Family, Resilience & The Future

Outside of IT, my world revolves around my family. My wife, Corinne, is my rock—she even donated one of her kidneys to me in 2010, a selfless act that changed my life. Together with our daughters, we share a love for horse riding, and we’re kept on our toes by our two dogs, Beau and Otis.

My personal and professional experiences have taught me one thing: resilience is everything. I’ve faced challenges, setbacks, and unexpected twists, but through it all, I’ve stayed true to my mission—helping businesses stay secure and thrive in an ever-changing digital world.

If you’re looking for an IT partner who prioritises security, simplicity, and service, let’s talk. At Initial IT, we’re not just another IT provider—we’re your trusted partner in protecting what matters most.
