A new government-backed scheme is allowing 500 eligible small businesses to access 12 months of digital support.

The scheme, funded by Navii with the assistance of grants from both state and federal governments, will provide 500 eligible small businesses, including those in the real estate industry, with over $3 million in digital support tools harnessed via the new Digital Launchpad program. 

The team at Navii were selected for a grant by the federal government, which boosted the initiative with $1.9 million in funding to allow the platform to provide a one-stop shop where small businesses are able to access practical digital resources and tools.

The Digital Launchpad program is purpose-built to facilitate and assist small businesses in improving their online presence and sales and provides successful applicants with a host of amenities. 

Services that the scheme will offer include a professional digital engagement health check, which will scope out a range of digital assets linked to the business, including their search engine optimisation. The firm will review the business’ digital services and outline the issues facing their online presence in a 16-page report that can then be actioned.

Moreover, the scheme will provide fortnightly live group and email support to help guide participating businesses through the year, as well as a course and template library that can be utilised on a range of digital platforms, including websites and social media pages. 

A wide array of small businesses are encouraged to apply, and the company has provided support tailored to real estate entities in the past. Applications for the program close on 30 June 2022.
