National campaign seeks Darlington small businesses for free digital makeovers when roadshow arrives

Do It Digital – the not-for-profit campaign that helps small, independent businesses around the UK make the most of the advantages of being online – is looking for small Darlington businesses interested in a free digital makeover when its nationwide digital roadshow arrives in late March.

The free digital makeover could include practical help with a better performing website; guidance on how to make the most out of social media, or tips on how to save money for your business online. The roadshow which will arrive in Manchester on Friday 24th March.

Do It Digital Director, Michelle Ovens says: “The Do It Digital campaign is not only about helping the digitally un-engaged take their first steps online but also helping those already online to expand their digital horizons. This could mean anything from a first, simple web presence to taking the first steps towards selling online.”

“Digital engagement is crucial for all aspects of business, from marketing and recruitment to banking and accounting, and is only likely to become more so. Digital engagement will become increasingly central to the development of competitive, profitable and growing businesses. That’s why we are looking for small businesses to help on the roadshow but spaces are very limited, so the sooner interested businesses get in touch, the better.”
