Our Story
A brief history - our story condensed into just a few milestones
Q1 2018
Inception of iOB Business
We started iOB Business and began creating our eco-system. We began work on developing our technology infrastructure and other internal systems - including the Digital Office, Learn Centre and partner microsite frameworks. All under the original iOrderBot brand. For those of you wondering.. that is where the iOrderBot in iOB Business comes from!Q3 2019
Launched iOB Business website
Officially launched our website in July of 2019 to allow us to start creating content, while still developing our infrastructure and resources.Q4 2019
Publicly launched our business opportunity
After almost 2 years of hard work we had our main cornerstones in place, putting us in a position to publicly launch our Digital Agency business opportunity. This involved running our first campaigns to take our opportunity to market.Q1 2020
Onboarded our first partner
After just 2 months of going public we signed and onboarded our first partner! This included our first face-to-face training session for iOB Business partners and the seed of our network was sown.Q2 2020
iOrderBot Rebranded to Stacked Digital
Introducing additional digital solutions meant a re-think of our original partner-centric brand vision. iOrderBot had evolved to much more than a food ordering platform. We needed a fresh, clean and innovative brand to reflect the value we were building. Thus, Stacked Digital was born.Q3 2020
Released our 4th in-house platform - Online Booking
To ensure our partners could offer relevant solutions to their clients, we continued to evolve our offering. This included all aspects of our opportunity, but importantly the technology systems that our partners sold to SMEs. Our Online Booking platform was released to give another valuable solution to businesses.Q4 2020
Introduction of bi-weekly BGS and iOB Business Webinars
We joined forces with a professional business coach to deliver useful and engaging content for our partner network and also our wider audience. Every week we hold either a Business Growth Session for our partner network or an iOB Business Webinar for anyone who is interested in learning more about launching, running and managing a Digital Agency.Q1 2021
Zapier integration
Released our Zapier app, expanding the capabilities and scope of our eco-system exponentially. Our Digital-Agency.Tech Zapier app allows data sharing from our platforms to 3000+ other external systems.Q2 2021
Expansion of Fulfilment Team and services
Significant growth in our partner network resulted in the need for a more diverse portfolio of digital services. A detailed feedback survey was commissioned among our partner network to identify additional services that they felt were required by local businesses. From the results of the survey we introduced new services that are delivered by our Fulfilment Team.Q3 2021
Website relaunch and new Pricing Tiers
A good website never stays the same for long! We had a few iterations over the past couple years, but this latest relaunch is our biggest update so far. In addition, we released brand new Pricing Tiers to make business ownership accessible for all.Q4 2021
Release of our flagship Accelerator Programme
With our growing eco-system and rapidly-growing array of solutions/service on offer, we realised the need to cater to our Partners of different experiences and skill levels. The Accelerator Programme was developed to give those with less experience a strong foundation and those whom already have some knowledge a strong blueprint to success.Q1 2022
Rollout of our Lead Generation Programme
After the great feedback of our Accelerator Programme, we wanted to replicate the success with another addition to the Learn Centre. We surveyed our network to decide what was important to them and then built the Lead Generation Programme.Q2 2022
Introduction of Builders to our Eco-System
We always want to provide as much value as possible to our partner network and continue to evolve our offering as a whole. We looked at our most popular fulfilled services and sought for a way to allow our partners to offer these solutions without having to use our Fulfilment Team (if they didn't want to!). From this the Builder Suite was born - an array of "partnered SaaS solutions" that are free to use for our network.Q4 2022
Development of Dashboard 3.0 Begins
This quarter marked a new chapter from a technology perspective of our business. We will always be dedicated to ensuring our network of partners have access to great tools and technology to help their businesses grow. Work started on the re-development of our Partner Dashboard. This major revamp and rebuild looks to accommodate new techologies as well as keeping up-to-date with market trends.Q2 2023
Additions to the Builder Suite
Striving to continuously deliver value to our network, we partnered with and added 2 new amazing tools to our Builder Suite. These additions give our partners new sellable technologies that they can offer their clients, or use within their own Digital Agencies.Q4 2023
