What Small Business Owners REALLY Want!

Small business owners are constantly in the fight of their lives while they dedicate most of their time, money, and resources to building and growing a long-term sustainable business. This is the world of the entrepreneur who chooses to take control of their own personal and financial freedom BUT…

A recent research survey conducted in April and May of 2019, by GoDaddy on ‘The best and worst thing about being a small business owner in South Africa’ found among other things that:

  1. 32% said that risk of failure and uncertainty about the future is the worst thing about being a small business owner.
  2. The skills shortage is a major challenge for small South African businesses, with 76% saying it is somewhat hard, hard, or very hard to find talented workers.

In February of 2019, the National Small Business Chamber (NSBC) carried out a survey with 985 SMEs and the following response was received:

  1. 92% are in favor of online courses and how-to-guides.
  2. 55% are in favor of online short courses and 45% in favor of how-to-guides.

There is a clear indication that what small business owners REALLY want is to improve their current skillsets as well as learn new skillsets to empower themselves to take their business to the next level.

Business owners who are serious about taking their business to the next level require ongoing learning that is Proven, Tested, Cost-Effective, and Can Produce Results within 30-90 days to ensure they do not join the ranks of small businesses that fail within the first year.

Training has evolved as today’s business landscape requires agility and the ability to be malleable. Mobile consumption is more prominent than ever, and the business training industry needs to take this into account to ensure its effectiveness. This is where e-learning plays a major role.

When compared to the traditional mode of classroom learning, there is clear evidence that e-learning brings a long list of benefits to small business owners. One of the main benefits is the ability to have mobile, self-paced content and the Business Growth Network (BGN) Online Academy in South Africa has heard the message loud and clear.

BGN has found that the best e-learning programs are tailor-made for a small business which not only provide all the information business owners need but, empower learners to easily implement what they have learned.

The format in which the learning material is provided plays a big role in ensuring the learner easily understands what is being taught by providing tutorial videos, workbooks, and any additional material required for that specific module.
