Heaptalk, Jakarta – Following the pandemic, many MSME businesses are in a precarious position due to their immature digital readiness. Dewaweb contributes to economic recovery by encouraging MSME businesses to go digital through free webinar training, tutorials, and hosting services.
Since Prof. Wiku Adisasmito, Spokesperson for the COVID-19 Handling Task Force, declared Tuesday (10/8) during a press teleconference in Jakarta, the Indonesian people must be prepared to coexist with the Covid-19 virus. Likewise, since the pandemic, the MSME sector has suffered.
According to Katadata, 56.8 percent of MSMEs are in poor their (both physically and in terms of business performance) as a result of the pandemic. Indeed, a number of MSME businesses produce comparable-quality goods and services. However, the most common challenges that MSME owners face are immature digital readiness and a lack of knowledge required to run an online business. This is evidenced by the fact that only about 16.5 percent of MSMEs currently sell through their websites.
“We observe that MSMEs today desire to go digital but frequently lack the knowledge necessary to do so. We want to assist MSMEs in going digital and to support government programs for post-pandemic economic recovery through the assistance services offered by Dewaweb via the Dewatalks webinar platform,” Dewaweb CEO Edy Budiman said in a written statement in Jakarta on Sunday (10/10).
Dewaweb believes in the importance of assisting MSME businesses in going digital by providing various support options. MSME owners can take advantage of Dewatalks’ free webinars to learn directly from industry experts and practitioners.
Additionally, MSME owners can access a variety of free tutorials on Dewaweb’s YouTube channel, which cover topics ranging from how to create an online store website to how to advertise products, digital marketing, and SEO. Additionally, this YouTube channel features a rerun of the Dewatalks webinar in case viewers missed it live.
Dewaweb’s cloud hosting service can also assist MSME business owners in immediately putting the knowledge gained from Dewatalks and YouTube tutorials into practice.
MSME owners can now have their own website for as little as IDR 20,000 per month, thanks to the support of cutting-edge cloud technology that enables online business websites to be accessed quickly, securely, and SEO-friendly, making them easy to find on Google.
MSME owners who wish to create a website need not fear confusion, as the best cloud hosting service recommended by the nation’s children features a friendly Ninja Support Team that is available 24 hours a day via email, live chat, or telephone.
Dewaweb made seven interesting surprises on its 7th birthday to liven up the celebration, which will take place on September 9, 2021.
With the theme “DEWAWEB BIRTHDAY PAR7Y,” there are a variety of useful programs available to MSME owners, such as free webinars with seven speakers at once and free workshops.
