The importance of IT when it comes to growing a business

Lack of research

Surprisingly there is not much literature regarding the importance of how IT can develop and grow a business. But let’s be honest whether you are a huge technology fan or not, it is impossible to underestimate the power of technology, it’s the glue that holds business together but in our eyes also is an essential driving force to the growth of businesses. Obviously it is dependent on the industry, for example a local pub that already has a constant set of returning customers, do not need a strong IT presence to grow, perhaps a website and some social media platforms would help, but most of their business will come from word of mouth by continuing to produce quality customer service and excellent tasting food.
Whereas a medium sized publishing agency for example would need and rely on IT to get the edge on their competitors. For example, a faster more stable internet will mean they get their stories out quicker, a file transfer system that can be accessed from a camera will mean pictures are sent through to a picture disk and therefore are ready to publish faster than a competitor who can’t do this. Likewise the company will rely on software that allows creative thinking and collaboration, a stable and well setup email platform, a phone system that is reliable and advanced allowing customers to ring in and be directed to the right line, but also allowing in-house communication. When you put IT into perspective, if this company didn’t have all of this stuff, or if they did but it was outdated and another company was doing it better, they would undoubtedly be falling behind.
