The Importance of Digitizing SME for the Future

Digitalization of SME is the main key to business progress and economic growth in the country, why is that? This means micro small and medium enterprises, these business activities are usually carried out individually, in households, and even by small business entities. The classification can be seen from the turnover per year, assets, and the number of employees. These SME are usually found in various regions with various types of business sectors that are run.

The Covid-19 pandemic that hit Indonesia had a significant impact on business continuity, including SME. Katadata reported that the majority of SME were negatively affected, the figure was quite large, up to 82.9% so, to maintain the business, various ways were carried out, one of which was by digitizing SME.

As reported from the Forbes page, with digitization the SME business can grow and will continue to survive in the current era of all technology. However, there are still many things that need to be prepared for Indonesian SMEs to switch to the digital market. One of them is the readiness of the workforce and their ability to access the internet so that they can bring their business online. If we look further, digitalization can get many benefits to SMEs. This is because many consumers have switched to living a digital lifestyle and using the cashless method in their daily activities.

What is SME Digitization?

The digitization of SMEs is a change from conventional to digital systems to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of business processes and operations. The digitization of SME makes SME business actors change their business management from conventional to modern practices.

Digitizing SME is not an application that uses technology to sell products. Moreover, the digitization of SME allows SME to manage finances, unite business cash flows, and obtain raw materials online. That way, digitalization plays an important role in the overall running of the SME business process.

 

In addition, various benefits that can be obtained from the digitization of SME, including:

Expand marketing networks

Before digitizing, SME had a limited scope of marketing. Generally, their consumers are just people who live around the place of business. So, if SME digitizes, the consumer network will also expand. Not only the people around the place of business who know the existence of the business. Communities on various digital platforms finally know the existence of these SMEs and their products.

Respond to lifestyle changes

Indonesia has the largest digital market potential in Southeast Asia, one of its supporting infrastructures is SME. Therefore, by digitizing, SME will be able to adapt to online shopping trends. If SME fail to adapt to changes in people’s lifestyles, their chances of survival are certainly getting smaller.

Make it easier for consumers to transactions

Trend of online shopping is accompanied by changes in the way consumers transact. From previously used non-cash payment instruments, consumers began to switch towards digital transactions. So this will facilitate payment activities when shopping at any time.

Increase revenue

All efforts to digitize SME will end rising income for businesses. This is because SME provides access to digital payments that make it easier for consumers to transact while maximizing the digital financial management system. As a result, the SME business process becomes more optimal and brings more profits.
