This video by our digital marketing mentor Dorcas Reamonn explains how you can apply for the voucher

What are the benefits of developing online trading capabilities?

There are a whole host of benefits to be accrued from developing your online trading capabilities . For example a study of 501 Irish SME’s in 2015 indicated that

  • 68% can’t process payments online
  • 51% had no social media presence
  • Only 4 percent of businesses had analytics capability

Now is your chance to gain a competitive advantage through use of online trading.
