I'm Ady Howes. I help small business owners make better use of tech to build, market and grow what they do, without needing to become tech experts themselves.
Build a focused landing page. Create your own online community. Or just pick up practical ideas that save time and make the tech side of business feel a lot less bloody complicated.
Join me by email for practical ideas, tutorials and things I've discovered that can help you save time, use tech better and grow your business.
No endless AI news. No jargon for the sake of sounding clever. Just useful stuff you can actually do something with.
Free to join. Leave whenever you like.
You don't need a giant menu of services. If you need a better home for your business or a better home for your people, start here.
Create a proper home for your audience, clients or members with conversations, courses, events, learning and support in one place.
I build focused landing pages for offers, campaigns, events and services, designed to turn attention into enquiries, bookings, sign-ups or sales.
The tools change. The job does not. I help people work out what they actually need, make the complicated stuff simpler and get technology doing something useful for the business.

I'm a Royal Navy veteran, Learning & Development professional and digital specialist with more than 20 years' experience helping people learn, connect and use technology with confidence.
I've built and supported digital learning and community experiences ranging from small private groups to audiences with tens of thousands of people.
But Help With Digital isn't really about software.
It's about working out what you're trying to achieve first, then using the simplest technology that'll help you get there.
Sometimes that means building something for you. Sometimes it's giving you the tools to do it yourself. And sometimes it's a five-minute video that saves you three hours of swearing.
That's Help With Digital.
Start with the thing that's useful to you now. You can always come back for the rest later.
