Boost your Business Technology Applications are done through the Government of Canada. With the correct information ready, many businesses are approved in 15 minutes or less.
Once you have been approved, the Digital Adoption Plan must be created with an approved Digital Advisor. This is where can choose Alacrity.

We know digital marketing but it’s more than just reaching people, it’s about knowing how big your opportunities are and where they are. Our team can help you size your market and optimize efforts in the marketing channels your customers are in. We don’t stop there, we will leverage our expertise to size the opportunities and provide real budgets for reaching your market.
Marketing is not enough however, often the barrier to growth is not just in reaching more customers but having the capacity to handle that growth. We bring the experience of helping countless businesses improve their internal processes. Processes such as contract creation or quote generation or production of waybills, those seemingly small processes that may be manageable now but aren’t scalable and will only hold you back.

At the end of the process you get a Digital Playbook that will include recommendations on website, organic marketing, paid marketing, budget, automation and more. The recommendations will include actionable steps for growing your business as well as recommended service providers.
