Overview

Digital value for small businesses: many small businesses getting into digital, who know their own business, undersell their proposition through lack of digital savvy; and are unable to capitalise on the reward potential of digital. Others, for the same reason, are vulnerable to security or compliance risks. For instance:

  • Diluted ability to direct;
  • Business choking due to lack of integration with digital channels or inventory;
  • Poor choice of e-commerce software through not knowing what is critical;
  • Making the customer journey harder than it needed to be;
  • Lack of objectivity about the digital competency of key resources;
  • Reliance on third parties to manage their digital estate;
  • Being unable to re-imagine real world tasks as digital ones;
  • Failure to meet marketplace & consumer expectations;
  • Digital supply chain & fulfilment not fully thought through;
  • Ad hoc data, security & regulatory exposure;
  • Unable to leverage digital advantage through routes to a global market;
  • Vulnerability to change orders or stasis from gaps between supplier remits;
  • Inadequate digital back office or digital business routines.
