With pandemic restrictions lifted, people emerging from their homes, and businesses welcoming clients on-site & off-site, we all hope that life will slowly start to get back to normal, but for small and medium-sized businesses in Toronto, the new normal means navigating complex technology changes. Where some businesses might have been able to get away with not having a strong online presence prior to the pandemic, the reliance on technology and online marketing during the pandemic means that clients now demand a strong digital presence from the businesses they interact with. Those businesses are not able to showcase their services online risk being left behind. One new start-up, iAmigo hopes to make the transition to the online space simple and easy for business owners.

“Being a small and medium-sized business is difficult at the best of times, but the pandemic changed many aspects of how clients interact with businesses to make things even more challenging,” explains Yogesh Soni, founder of iAmigo. “In the last few years, clients pivoted to doing business with companies that they could find online and easily interact with. They wanted instant access and information 24 hours a day. For most small business owners in the GTA, keeping up with technology isn’t easy. iAmigo helps business owners focus on what they do best by allowing them to focus on their business while iAmigo handles the technical aspect of their online presence.
