Six months in: Building a team, building a dream

It’s hard to believe that Digismart is already six months old. Time has flown, and with it, so much growth has happened—both personally and professionally. Today, I’m thrilled to share a major milestone: we now have employees!

Yes, you read that right. After months of solo hustle, late nights, and countless cups of coffee, I’ve taken a leap and brought on two interns and one administrator to join the Digismart journey. And let me tell you—what a difference it’s already making.

Why Build a Team?

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in my career is this: to be effective, you need a team. I know that’s not always feasible for new businesses. The pressure to keep the lights on, manage expenses, and generate revenue can make hiring feel like a luxury. But if you want to thrive, not just survive, you have to take calculated risks.

The reward? Momentum. Clarity. Collaboration. Tasks are moving faster, ideas are flowing, and I’m no longer talking to myself (although that did help more than I care to admit!).

The Human Touch

AI has been a game-changer for Digismart. From automating tasks to generating insights, it’s helped me achieve more than I ever thought possible. But as powerful as AI is, nothing beats the human touch. Having a team means I can delegate, strategise, and focus on what I do best: leading, motivating, problem-solving, and innovating.

Now, instead of being buried in development work, I can steer the ship. I can nurture ideas that have been bubbling in my mind and watch them come to life with the help of my team. And the best part? They’re not just employees—they’re co-creators of this journey.

Looking Ahead

I wish I had a crystal ball to tell you how this all turns out. The reality is, many small businesses don’t make it past the first few years. That thought looms over me constantly. But I choose to stay positive and trust the process. I’ve got 25 years of working experience behind me, and I believe that counts for something.

So, here’s to the next chapter. To growth, to teamwork and to helping other small businesses thrive. If you’re a fellow entrepreneur looking to elevate your digital presence, reach out. Let’s see how Digismart can help you shine.



Follow my journey. Let’s build something beautiful—together.
