Determining Digital Readiness

Beyond expanding a business’ reach, going digital allows businesses to play a bigger role in the customers’ journey.

According to a Mastercard study, 76% of small businesses across North America say the pandemic prompted them to become more digital.

The Digital Readiness Diagnostic gauges a business’ strengths and weaknesses across the digital space. It generates customised recommendations to help owners meet the needs of today’s digital environment.

The Digital Readiness Diagnostic tool helps assess a business across six key dimensions :

  • Overarching Business Strategy
  • Management & Operations
  • Business Growth and Marketing
  • Getting paid
  • Making payments
  • Protecting Your Business Including Employees & Customers

 Based on the online evaluation, the Diagnostic tool provides a performance score and benchmarks a business against industry best practices. It aims to provide clarity on how well-equipped the business is for the digital future.

It also provides customised, expert recommendations on considerations for each of the assessed dimensions to drive greater efficiency and effectiveness.
