After months of writing, rewriting and fine-tuning, the time has come: in a packed RAI (2.000 attendees), writers Robert van Eekhout and Bas van der Lans presented the first copy of the Handbook for Digital clout on internet cowboy Ronnie Overgoor *. Van der Lans and Van Eekhout are clear about their mission: “By 2025 there will only be effective websites and digital marketing in the Netherlands.”

“The reason for writing this is the need in SMEs for independent advice on how to apply digital smartly,” says Van der Lans at BNR. Based on 11 years of experience, Robert and Bas wrote a practical manual for Dutch entrepreneurs. “Often a bedrijfswebsite used as a digital business card. A shame!” says Van Eekhout “Because then you are closing your eyes to the opportunities of the digital age; use digital strategically for marketing and sales.”
In addition to BNR News Radio, De Telegraaf, Het Parool and the Week of the Entrepreneur have also paid extensive attention to the book.
