Technology continues to shape the way businesses operate and grow, yet for many small and medium sized organisations the challenge lies in knowing where to start. The pace of change can be daunting, and finding time to explore what is available is difficult when you are balancing the day to day demands of running a business.
The Tech Adoption for Growth programme has been created to give businesses practical advice and support. It offers expert advice, guidance and support through this government funded trial. The focus is always on outcomes that matter, such as finding more customers, improving the way you communicate with them and building stronger foundations for future growth.
Businesses that join the trial will be allocated support either consultancy support tailored to their needs, or structured workshop support led by subject matter experts. This might include exploring how artificial intelligence can help streamline tasks, or making better use of data management to understand performance and customer behaviour. Many businesses also receive help choosing and setting up Customer Relationship Management systems, or improving their online visibility through Search Engine Optimisation. For those looking to strengthen their digital presence, support is available for social media, website design, digital brand strategy and wider digital marketing. Others choose to focus on internal systems, such as accounting software or integrated digital processes that help them save time and reduce errors. Whatever your goals, the programme is designed to meet your needs and help you progress with confidence.
A clear example of the difference this support can make comes from Pinkmans Bakery. After getting involved in the programme, they strengthened their digital activity and immediately began to see positive changes. The owner, Ross Gibbens states:
‘’Our Instagram followers have increased by 15% and engagement has increased by 30%. Our mailing list has also doubled in size from 2000-4000 subscribers, and we have attracted three leads for wholesale. I’d recommend to any business.’’
Stories like this show what can be achieved when businesses have the right digital tools and the confidence to use them. Whether you are trying to reach new customers, improve the way you communicate or simply make your day-to-day operations run more smoothly, the Tech Adoption for Growth programme is designed to help you take meaningful steps forward.
