A Different Way of Marketing
As technology becomes an integral part of work, life and play, it also opens up a world of infinite possibilities in the online space. Particularly in Singapore, where approximately 88 per cent of the population has access to the Internet and whose daily online activities average six hours and 48 minutes, companies that ignore the power of online engagements do so at their own peril.
Already, many businesses recognise the need to go where their existing and potential customers – online – but small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), with their lean resources, may lack the bandwidth to do so in a meaningful way.
In this eBulletin, we showcase how two businesses were given a head start in their digital marketing efforts through the UOB-SMU Asian Enterprise Institute’s hallmark SME Consulting Programme (SCP). Both SMEs had opted for the SCP+. In this extended version of the SCP, the consulting teams proceeded to the implementation phase, where they designed and launched targeted, online mini campaigns for the SMEs. The final project report for each SME comprised feasible recommendations that took into consideration the implementation outcomes, in addition to the full set of research carried out by the consulting team.
For businesses that are unfamiliar with the effectiveness of social media marketing and all that it entails, the “plus” in the SCP+ can be extremely informative as well as educational, as the two featured companies will attest to.
In today’s Everything 4.0 business environment that is made more complex by the havoc wreaked by Covid-19, it is essential for businesses to continue to evolve. But don’t rush to hit the “reset” button and risk losing your way. Come talk to us and together, we can discuss how the SCP can equip you and your business for your next stage of growth.
