As more and more businesses diversify and digitize their strategies, the digital divide continues to grow. On one side are the businesses that are leveraging new, innovative technologies to improve their operations and customer engagement, and on the other are businesses that have stayed with traditional business practices and strategies. One of these sides is able to offer more to their customers, save time and resources, and streamline their operations. And, yes, this side is the one that is focused on digitization.
The digital divide, as it grows, isolates businesses that are resistant to change. Businesses on the right side of the divide are seeing a big pay-off in both their marketing efforts and internal operations.
Today's typical customer is tech-savvy and expects companies to be as well. So, in order to appeal to the new era of consumers, businesses must be digital, online, and engaged with these new mediums. Luckily, marketing is an easy place to start digitization as there are many tools and services available to businesses to aid in the transition to digital marketing. This is key when beginning the process of digitization: first, find areas to digitize and automate that are easy and will show quick results.
Creating a website, implementing signup and contact forms, and sending feedback surveys to clients are all simple and effective digitization strategies that show results to businesses as well as show them the benefits of digitization. And, there is a big opportunity for those who offer services to help businesses digitize.
One of the main reasons businesses don't digitize is because they don't know how. If you are unfamiliar with digital methods and tools, it is overwhelming and a lot to take in at once. And that is where the opportunity lies for organizations that have already mastered digitization. Instead of non-digital businesses failing to start digitization, thus falling behind their digital counterparts, businesses that offer services to help businesses digitize can swoop in and help. This benefits the non-digital business as they now have a resource to turn to and it benefits the business offering the service as they now have a new vertical to go after.
