They genuinely took the time to really understand the specific needs our our business and what improvements could have a meaningful impact on the day-today running of Living Woodlands. Once the most suitable measures had been identified they went above and beyond to help us implement them - providing us with clear cost-benefit analyses and jargon-free recommendations. We are absolutely delighted with the digital systems we have put in place as a result of the project. I can’t recommend App Advisor highly enough!”

Questions
The questions owners ask us most about Digital for Business, the grant and how we work.
Digital for Business is a Local Enterprise Office (LEO) programme for micro and small Irish businesses. An approved consultant such as AppAdvisor reviews how your business runs and recommends the digital tools and changes that would help most. The consultancy is fully funded for businesses that qualify, and the written report is yours to keep.
The Grow Digital Voucher (also called the Grow Digital grant) is for small businesses that have completed Digital for Business in the previous two years. It covers 50% of eligible costs on new software, training and setup, with a grant of between €500 and €5,000 per application, so the full €5,000 needs €10,000 of spend. A business can have up to two projects, €5,000 in total. Apply before you buy anything. It replaced the Trading Online Voucher, which closed in December 2024.
No. We do not sell software and we do not take vendor commissions. You are free to choose your own suppliers. Our only interest is giving you the right advice.
We are advisory first. Under Digital for Business you get independent advice and a written report. If you want hands-on help afterwards, we can do that too, privately: guided implementation, smaller pieces of AI setup and implementation, and training with your team.
Why AppAdvisor
Joe brings over 35 years of business judgement. Jack brings current knowledge of AI and the newest systems, and finds where they save the most time. We work every assignment together, so you get both in the same room, and either of us can pick up where the other left off.
