Digital Main Street and the Ontario BIA Association are helping small businesses in Ontario up-skill their digital literacy and adopt new technologies with the Digital Transformation Grant program. If you want to get serious about social, this is your sign to get started – and we can help!
If you own a small brick-and-mortar business in Ontario, you might be eligible for a $2500 grant to digitally transform your business.
Grant funds can be used for a number of eligible costs, including the cost of hiring an agency to execute Digital Marketing initiatives. That’s where we come in! If you are a small restaurant or brick-and-mortar food service business in Ontario, we want to help you overhaul your social media and set you on a path towards an impressive digital presence and an engaged online community.
Did you know that there are over 16 million Instagram users in Canada, according to Statista. That’s 44% of Canada’s entire population, and most of those users are between the ages of 18 and 34! We can teach you how to produce amazing content and reach those potential new customers.
The Digital Transformation Grant is open to permanent, brick-and-mortar businesses, owned by an Ontario resident, employing between 1 and 50 employees. Check out their website for full eligibility criteria.
Applications are being accepted until September 30th, 2023, or until grant funds run out. Get your application started by completing their digital assessment now so you don’t miss out!
