Spanish Kit Digital beneficiaries: why they're the best clients for tech vendors
Half a million Spanish SMEs and sole traders took their first digital step with Kit Digital. What they need now that subsidised services are ending, and how to offer it.

Kit Digital has been the largest SME digitalisation programme in Spain's history, funded by EU recovery funds. Hundreds of thousands of businesses received a voucher for a website, an online shop, a CRM, social media management or cybersecurity. Many of those services ran for 12 months, and those 12 months are ending.
Why they're good clients
- They've already invested in going digital. No need to convince them.
- They know how tech vendors and recurring services work.
- Many lose the service when the subsidised period ends and must decide whether to pay, switch or drop it.
- Some weren't happy with their provider: an opening for anyone offering better.
What they need now
| They received… | Now they need… |
|---|---|
| Website or online shop | Maintenance, SEO, content, campaigns |
| Social media management | Continuity or a professional upgrade |
| CRM or process tools | Training, integration and support |
| E-invoicing | Adaptation to Verifactu |
| Cybersecurity | Renewal and a managed service |
By size
- Segment III (0-2 employees): 68 % of beneficiaries; vouchers of €2,000-3,000.
- Segment II (3-9): 20 %; €6,000.
- Segment I (10-49): 11 %; €12,000.
- Segments IV and V (50-249): under 1 %; €25,000 and €29,000.
Segment I is especially interesting: companies with staff and budget that already invested €12,000.
How to approach them
Don't use Kit Digital as your opener ("since you had Kit Digital…"): it sounds like you've been investigating them. Talk about what their business needs: "We work with fashion shops in the area and many have a website but get no visitors from Google. How is yours performing?"
Use the data to offer services related to their professional activity. Identify yourself, never pose as a public body or their current provider, and respect opt-outs.
