Small business, the Internet, and the digital era – What to do if you don’t like technology?

How is small business faring in the digital era
Digital transformation or digital adoption are trending terms that describe the use of technology. They are about how people are migrating away from traditional work tools to digital ones. For example, going paperless or getting a website. Small business is lagging in terms of digital transformation, or so the stats say. This gap is growing year on year. Taking the first step is cited as the primary problem. Once a small business takes the first step in digital adoption, they grow from there and it snowballs. There is a big difference in the type of digital tool and the sector using them, in terms of adoption. Some tools have higher adoption rates than others, in different sectors.
According to a study, small businesses mainly use email and the internet as digital tools, in Australia and the UK.
How do small businesses benefit from the digital world and the internet?
When small businesses do adopt digital technologies the benefits they experience are enormous. Digital tools help to start, run, grow their small businesses, along with helping them survive through tough times. It is a true snowball effect. According to a study, small businesses in the US who use +6 digital tools saw an increase in profits and sales (82%) in comparison to their peers who only use 1 or less digital tool.
Let’s go over a few of the benefits of digital tools for small business:
Customer satisfaction and relationship building
People expect fast, efficient service. They want you to be where they can easily find you.
Access to data for decision making
Having a look at who visited your website can give you insight into where to advertise your business
Limits human error
An accounting package can go a long way in getting your monthly books right
Financial savings
Email costs less than paper and post
Different revenue streams
Your website may open up new markets that you were unaware of
Reaching your customer
Email is any easy way to get in touch
Efficiency
Project Management tools can streamline your work process
What to do if as a small business owner you don’t like dealing with technology
