Maganda man ang produkto o serbisyo, hindi madaling palaguin ang isang negosyo. Para sa entrepreneurs, hamon ang maabot ang mas maraming customers at makasabay sa digital tools habang umaasa pa rin sa traditional marketing, manual processes, at personal referrals.

Kaya, bilang tugon sa utos ni Pangulong Ferdinand Marcos Jr. na palawakin ang digitalization at mga oportunidad para sa MSMEs, patuloy na inilalapit ng Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT), sa pangunguna ng ICT Literacy and Competency Development Bureau (ILCDB) at Regional Office XII ang digital skills at tool training sa mga negosyante.

Katuwang ang DTI, LGUs at local MSME Development Councils, tinuturuan ng DICT ang entrepreneurs sa SOCCSKSARGEN at LaMa Provinces ng BARMM sa social media marketing, AI, chatbots, e-commerce, at marketing automation upang mapalakas ang kanilang mga negosyo.

Ngayon, ang dating mga MSMEs na nahihirapang mapalawak ang kanilang local market, mas nakilala na online at maraming customer na ang naabot. Ang kanilang mga negosyo ay mas makilala sa merkado, nakakuha ng mga bagong projects at partnerships, tumataas ang kita, at nakapagbukas ng karagdagang trabaho sa kanilang komunidad.

Patunay ito na sa ICT capacity building programs ng DICT, ang tamang digital skills ang nagiging puhunan para lumago. Mas nagiging competitive ang negosyo, mas tumitibay ang kabuhayan, at mas maraming oportunidad ang nabubuksan para sa MSMEs at mas maraming Pilipino.

For many Filipino entrepreneurs, the challenge is not simply starting a business, but finding ways to keep it growing. Some businesses still rely on walk-in buyers, word-of-mouth referrals, manual processes, and traditional marketing, making it harder to reach consumers who are increasingly turning to digital platforms—limiting their customers, markets, and opportunities to grow.
