Digital strategies for business

Why a good digital strategy is important

Digitalisation should not be seen primarily as a technology issue. Its influence on customers, employees and ultimately on the company’s own competitiveness is far too great. But digitalisation is also of immense importance for the economy as a whole. Many companies already rely on automated processes. But digitalisation goes one step further and links different data from a wide variety of sources. The new technical possibilities and the changed user behaviour bring numerous opportunities. As a result, numerous improvements can be achieved for a customer-oriented service. Digital channels are usually faster and more transparent for the customer than traditional channels. Digitalisation can significantly optimise the personal customer experience. Digitalisation also offers numerous advantages for employees, for example through simplified work processes. Another opportunity of digitalisation is the development of new business areas.

New technologies can have a profound impact on customer behaviour and the whole competitive environment. Many entrepreneurs are aware that they need a digital strategy to survive in a globalised world. Those who do not follow suit miss the boat, lag behind competitors and customers may migrate. However, some companies feel pressured by the speed of the digital age. They fall into blind actionism when tackling the topic of digitalisation and invest in new expensive software, for example. But the desired benefit often falls by the wayside because a digital strategy is missing. Some decisions turn out to be a bad investment.

Digital Strategies – Location Analysis

For a successful digital strategy, the location analysis is of great importance. First and foremost, clear goals should be defined and the following points should be taken into account.

• Screening of employees, work processes and partners
• Consideration of global aspects, for example legal and economic prerequisites
• Approach of competitors
• Analysis of the market situation

From this, possible challenges can be identified in order to be able to react to them at an early stage. A strategic location analysis also reveals potential opportunities. Only those who know their starting position are prepared for a profitable future. Those who do not have a concrete goal for the digital transformation often take too long to make important decisions. Therefore, it is particularly important to define a clear vision and how it is to be achieved. This must then be brought into line with the digital strategy.

Special features of digital strategy development

Anyone developing a digital strategy must take into account various special features. Firstly, it is important to take into account the rapid pace of digitalisation. Customers are now very spoiled by fast service. They are used to products and services being available at all times and within the shortest possible time. Work processes must therefore be accelerated in order to remain competitive. Furthermore, when creating a digital strategy, it is important to bear in mind that in a global world, numerous elements influence each other.

What matters in a digital strategy

For a successful transition to digital processes, you must neither hesitate nor fall into actionism. The digital strategy must be designed very carefully and thoughtfully. But once it is in place, you need to be decisive. Otherwise, you will weaken your company’s ability to act. Always keep an eye on your competitors to be able to change course quickly if necessary. Keep checking which measures of your digital strategy work well and can therefore continue, and which you can do without in the future because they do not bring the desired success.
