What To Expect
The recipient will work directly with a Solid Digital project manager and team and will receive the following services at no cost.
Three Months of Digital Growth®
Digital Growth® is our proven process of defining a single, unique index (Digital Value) to be used as a basis for strategizing, performing, and tracking actions to improve the outcomes of your digital efforts. Our Digital Growth® Program is an on-going engagement with the Solid Digital team to help improve an organization’s Digital Value. Program cycles operate on a 3-month schedule.
The digital experts at Solid Digital will guide you and your team through a series of 3 worksessions, as well as provide materials, accountability, high-fives and follow-up. Each month, team members will have action items assigned based on the objective and metrics decided upon in the kick-off strategic worksession.
40 Hours of Digital Support
A 40-hour support agreement will also be provided to assist your organization through the first stages of Digital Growth®. These hours can be used for over the course of our three-month engagement for anything related to our digital efforts. Examples include: website design, website tool integration, website development, SEO optimization, content creation, and Google analytics set-up and training.
These support hours will be provided by the internal specialists on the Solid Digital team.
