Hands up if you love tech tools? Oops, did I say love, I meant loath!

Yes, 90 per cent of business women I work with have technological issues in business … software, hardware, platforms, and every kind of tech for every area of business.

You name it, I’ve heard it and had the same troubles myself when implementing tech. So in this blog, you’ll learn the 6 biggest technological issues in business that business women face when trying to be more efficient and productive.

Obstacles businesses face when implementing technology

How many of these technological issues are you having in your business?

1. Compatibility issues

Tech tools may not be compatible with existing software or hardware, making it difficult to integrate new tools with existing systems.

For example, a new CRM software may not be compatible with a company’s existing accounting software, which makes it difficult to track customer orders and payments.

2. Limited budget

Implementing new tech tools can be expensive, which may be a barrier for businesses with limited financial resources. This is one of the biggest technological issues in business I see people struggling with.

For example, a small retail store may not have the budget to invest in an inventory management system, which would help them to better track their stock levels in turn making the business more efficient and profitable.

3. Technical knowledge

Business owners may not have the technical knowledge or necessary expertise to choose, implement and use tech tools effectively.
For example, a small business owner may not have the technical knowledge to properly set up a lead magnet, making it difficult to attract new leads, when it can be really easy to enlist the help of an OBM and VA to do this for you.

4. Training

Employees may need to be trained on how to use new tech tools, which can take time and resources away from other business priorities.

For example, a new project management system may require training for employees, which could impact their productivity in the short-term. On the flip side, it can increase productivity and profitability in the future for all employees who use the project management system.

5. Data security and privacy concerns

The use of tech tools may raise concerns about data security and privacy, which may deter some businesses from implementing new tools.

For example, a business may be hesitant to use cloud-based storage services due to concerns about the security of their data.

6. Maintenance and updates

Tech tools may require ongoing maintenance and updates to ensure they continue to function properly, which can be time-consuming and may require additional resources.

For example, a company may need to hire an IT specialist to maintain and update their website, which can be costly for small businesses.
