Remember when marketing was simple? A local newspaper ad. A leaflet drop around the neighbourhood. Easy, right?

Then the internet came along and suddenly we’re talking about “website engagement”, “click-through rates” and “ratings”. Not to mention “social platforms” and “search engine optimisation”.

Over. Whelming.

We get it. Many businesses know they need to get more digital but figuring out where to start can feel like a maze. As the saying goes, “you don’t know what you don’t know”.

That’s where Digital Basics comes in. Think of us as your own personal guide through the digital noise and confusion. We’re passionate about helping businesses to get their digital basics set up because without a solid foundation, how can you hope to grow?

We start by helping you get the basics in place: your website, hosting and professional email, Google Business listing and customer database.

Once these basics are in place, you might find that’s all you need for now. Or, you might get excited about the possibilities of marketing online. Either way, we’re here for it and happy to help you explore.

And don’t worry - we keep it simple. No tech jargon, no corporate speak. Just clear, practical advice in plain English.

With decades of experience in the corporate and business world, we now use this to help small business navigate the digital space with no-nonsense language. No smoke and mirrors, just simple solutions to help your business succeed online.
