Digital solutions as business resources/ 2022
Folks, we are still in a pandemic in 2022. Covid_19 and its variants are knocking at the doors of both vaccinated and unvaccinated. I’ve gotten my booster, added to vaccine and keeping a healthy diet with fitness/healthy habits in full swing. I can get Covid_19, thus want to be well equipped to fight and win with stronger immune system.
Being prepared for challenges and mitigating risk is something business people need to be ready for. Your business has to be sustainable and continue, and this happens with adaptability, resilience and awareness of your environment. Technology is a good place to start with surfing through this pandemic tide.
Some points on digital solutions and your business
- Listen to your customers – Use technology and digital options to help improve customer experience. Online solutions such as electronic payment options, online sales and service solutions, and delivery to door with automated processes are available – seek it out!
- Be accessible online/virtually – An online presence is key to meeting your customers and remaining relevant in this new business climate. Use video and streaming options to demonstrate and show your products and services. This is the way forward.
- Digital safety/ cybersecurity – Give customers added confidence that their transactions with your business are safeguarded by your advance system protection. Remember your business information/ secrets also need protection.
- Businesses should facilitate remote working for staff if work functions do not necessitate coming into office.
- Simplify business model – Review business systems and processes, and develop a business model that can be efficient in all aspects of operations, without bureaucracy.
- Education and virtual learning at home – Employee support. Be sensitive to the needs of family living and changes. Online learning and supervision with digital devices (Tablets, phones, computers, television) for classes while parents are working from home is a reality. Find a middle ground for everyone to benefit.
- Invest in online storage – As virtual services and activities expand, devices need more storage to handle the capacity to avoid system failures /crash due to lack of storage. Check out ‘the cloud’ and other storage solutions.
Digital transformation can take place in most aspects of your business, and its up to you to start re-imagining your business processes. Get help to do this and learn about the ways other businesses are using digital technology to improve and gain competitive advantage.

Healthy habits start now…
This 2022, I’m starting as last year ended – healthy habits!
One of the most significant changes that took place in my life for 2021 was improving my health and wellbeing. In April 2021 joined http://www.dextersimon.com and this was mind-blowing and life changing.
Its important to take care of your body, mind and soul through healthy habits with food and nutrition, exercise, and of course – prayer. I lost a lot of weight, changed the way I use food and pray more consistently, with the change in focus to self before work. Suddenly, made ‘time’ to do the essential and everything else started falling in place.
Entrepreneurs and career, working people, need time for good health, and this will not come unless its planned and noted in our busy schedules. The weekends are important to give yourself that little extra boost, away from the grind of work and mental rest for at the very least 24 hours. Yes, we are human and need rest to maximize for effectiveness.
Prepare for this year with healthy habits for a stronger you!

Get Your Happy On!
Take time to celebrate your wins. In every tough week there is something to celebrate. Be grateful for the small wins as they help keep you going towards your ‘big success’.
Life in business as employee or business owner or unemployed is still life when you get home. The way you show appreciation for your efforts can manifest in how you feel about yourself.
Every week I can find something to celebrate, even when its a struggle, there is something that makes me laugh or feel joyous and glad. It’s not that my life is perfect and great – in fact it can be a mountain of challenges at times, but I keep seeking out the happiness and sure enough find it. My glass of life always has something in it. I am grateful.
Find your ‘happy’ today!

Trust and Relationships
In the past year there has been a lot of global changes, and the focus on getting goods and services outside of a physical network of ‘who we know/ who is known’ became ‘a thing’. Suddenly online trading and sales was the way to satisfy needs, and this created many opportunities for entrepreneurs and businesses to adapt their offerings. To be found online was critical to survival and basic living requirements- such as ‘masks’ were accessed from online stores and videos via YouTube for manufacturing designs. Trust had to be expanded beyond the traditional. How trust for business is supported comes with validation. Validation has to establish credibility, and this comes from awareness through a perceived ‘trusted’ source.
Reviews are now a major part of the decision-making process, and a key factor in trusting to move forward with booking a service or purchasing goods.
Today, as you reach out to your customers, employees, and community – are you a trusted source or resource? Do you have credible validation of your service /product offering? Are you visible to your customers – beyond superficial presence? Are your customers sharing reviews on social media platforms that you’re happy for others to read?
Establish consistent, forthright, clear, visible communication of what you do and who you are, and start building trust through doing what you say you will do, and communicating when it does not go according to the plan. Vulnerability is hard, but owning situations when this go wrong helps with building trust.
Keep working on trust and building relationships.
