Seeds to Success

Embracing Technology

Technology

There have been so many technological advances, it can be hard to keep up! Many small businesses don’t have the technical skills or the capacity to promote their businesses through websites, social media, etc. We are always looking for more time, with limited resources, but this is where I can help. The Digital Economy Program is free for eligible businesses and designed to save time. 

With my background in technology, I understand the various benefits, applications, and drawbacks it presents, and I want to help others understand it as well.  

Digital Economy Program

Community Futures West Yellowhead, in partnership with Business Link and Digital Main Street, is offering the Digital Economy Program.  This program is delivered by a team of digital specialists who provide one-on-one support tailored to the client’s business.  

As a Digital Services Squad (DSS) member, I offer services to assist clients develop a social media strategy, build a website, set up Google My Business and provide support, identifying point of sale solutions, and use digital tools to streamline business processes and increase traffic.

My role is to be a troubleshooter, researcher, and connector. I find solutions for digital issues clients have, provide resources and information, and provide individual support through one-on-one meetings. My goal as a DSS member is to customize the client’s experience so clients get exactly what they need. If a client needs help creating a website, or even just a second opinion on their social media accounts, I am a resource they can utilize!

Here's How It Works

First, you’ll need to create your account, enter your business information, and complete a digital assessment.  The whole process should take about 5-10 minutes.  Once this is complete, I will be able to access your information in my database.  I will then initiate contact to set up our first meeting.  Simple as that!
