Accessibility
You could be missing out on potential customers. In Australia, one in five people experience disability.
Like everyone else, people living with a disability want to buy goods and services. But this can be hard if your business isn't easy to access.
Creating an accessible environment within your business can help to:
- broaden your customer base
- increase economic benefits.
Accessibility pays dividends and makes good business sense. For more information, visit YouMeUs.
