Digital Boost Checkable: an extension of Digital Boost Educate, the Checkable solution is focused on supporting small businesses to prioritise where they should focus their time and effort on digitalising their business for the best return. Checkable is your one stop digital check up. It works by looking at how your business website and social media accounts are performing to ensure that every visitor has the maximum chance of connecting or buying from your business. The diagnostic features will give you feedback and advice, so you can confidently make improvements. Checkable uses world class diagnostic tools to assess the state of your current digital footprint and provides you with an assessment on your compliance, customer experience, site speed, visibility and social media.

There are 2 free sessions for you to attend:
