Paperless File Cabinets

We all know that there is a major shift happening with record keeping.  It's all going electronic.  Almost all bills can be received via email and paid online.  Medical records are going electronic too. 

A few weeks ago we checked out at the Apple Store and the sales person asked, "Do you want a receipt or should I just email it to you?"

On top of that  people are beginning to accumulate photos and videos on there computers, but don't have a consistent backup of those files.

What if someone would come to your house and set up an electronic filing cabinet?   Here's what you'd get:
  1. Scanning of all the files currently in your file cabinet saved to electronic folders instead
  2. Electronic billing setup for all your bills
  3. Filters and rules set up in your email inbox to make sure they are all filed consistently
  4. A server set up to back up all of your files each day
  5. Instruction  on how to stay organized
  6. Instruction on how to label all of the people in your photos so that they are easily searchable
What do you think?  Could you charge enough to pay for the time?  Would it be hard to get people to trust the company with personal information?
