Technology
Using digital media means using new technology both to create and support the media. New technology can be an asset for your business. When you adopt smartphones and laptops in order to use digital media, you also can positively influence other areas of your business. For example, such mobile technology makes communication among employees much easier. However, new technology is expensive, and sometimes it does not have the positive effect its champions think it will have. For example, "Information Week" notes that a number of companies gave its employees home computers when the Internet first became popular hoping that those employees would be a positive influence for the company online. However, the program really ended up causing support and tax problems for the companies and employees.
