Dr. Amena Sibghatullah — MSME consultancy

Why Going Digital Isn't Enough

Across Southeast Asia, more than 97% of businesses are MSMEs — and most are investing in websites, CRM systems, and social selling. Yet many still report flat or inconsistent sales.

Published research led by Dr. Amena Sibghatullah, in collaboration with Universitas Jenderal Soedirman (Indonesia) and UiTM Malaysia, found a critical pattern: digitalization alone has only a moderate direct effect on sales performance. The breakthrough happens when MSMEs deliberately design Digital Customer Experience (DCX).

Built on International MSME Research

Digital investments pay off when they are integrated with customer-centric experience design and continuous feedback — not when deployed in isolation.
