Business Growth: CAPDAN Tasks Members On Technological Solutions

The Computer  and Allied Products Dealers Association of Nigeria (CAPDAN) last Wednesday urged its members to adopt technological solutions that would push their businesses forward.
The President of CAPDAN, Mr Ahmed Ojikutu, made the appeal in Lagos at a one-day business workshop organised by Olivet Cloud Solutions Ltd.
The workshop has the theme: “Business Insights on Accountability and Visibility: The Sage Solutions”.
It featured the launch of Sage Software by Sage West Africa, a technology company.
“We are in a new world, and if business people do not drive their businesses with technology, it means that they are not doing well.
“This is why members of CAPDAN are here to understudy Sage as a solution that will give us the best accountability and visibility to develop our businesses.
“The study will also make us to have better businesses compared with our competitors,” he said.
According to Ojikutu, a brick and metal shop attracts less customers compared with having an online shop.
He said that, with the advent of technology and use of social media by more people, it was advisable for CAPDAN members to push their products online to get more visibility.
“The market is huge, and we should be ready as market people to take things to the next level, and that will be through technology.
“Technology is the driving force in the 21st century, and we need to tap into the solutions it provides to make our millions of naira.
“The knowledge got from the workshop will enable us to talk authoritatively and be able to convert things for better productivity,” he said.
The Regional Director, Sage West Africa, Mr Magnus Nmonwu, urged members of CAPDAN to take control of their businesses.
Nmonwu said that CAPDAN members would need to tap into Sage solutions that could help them to be accountable and visible to all.
