Lockdowns. Curfews. Restrictions on face-to-face activities. What a year!

As a disability service provider in your own business, how has technology helped your business during COVID?

We are looking for your digital success story. 

Did you:
  • Get a website?
  • Start using Social Media?
  • Move paperwork into the Cloud?
  • Automate a system or process?
  • Start using Zoom/Skype/Messenger Video/etc for client meetings?

If COVID caused a business problem and technology solved it, we want to know.

Simply tell us:
  1. A bit about yourself and your business 
  2. What was the problem your business experienced?
  3. What technology was your solution?
  4. What was the outcome for your business?

Either write your answers (and attach a photo) or alternatively, record your answers and submit a short video.

In return you’ll be in the running to:
  • Win a $500 JB Hi-Fi voucher from the Small Business Digital Champions Project. Read the full terms and conditions.
  • Gain exposure for your business.
  • Help others by sharing your experience.
