Dalam rangka meningkatkan kesejahteraan masyarakat, industri kecil memiliki peran yang sangat strategis mengingat berbagai potensi yang dimilikinya. Potensi tersebut antara lain mencakup jumlah dan penyebarannya, penyerapan tenaga kerja, penggunaan bahan baku lokal, keberadaannya di semua sektor ekonomi dan ketahanannya terhadap krisis. Industri kecil bisa menjadi tempat aktualisasi diri individu-individu kreatif, yang bisa melahirkan gagasan-gagasan kreatif bernilai ekonomi tinggi. Banyak pekerja wanita yang terlibat menjadi pekerja kreatif, misalnya disubsektor kerajinan, fashion, desain dan seni pertunjukan. Ini bisa menjadi ajang penyetaraan gender karena dalam industri kecil, pekerja laki-laki dan perempuan memiliki kesempatan yang sama untuk berkembang, selama mereka kreatif dan inovatif.Sehubungan dengan hal tersebut, maka dirasa perlu diberikan pelatihan peningkatan ketrampilan pembuatan songket kepada pengrajin songket agar mampu menghasilkan songket yang berkualitas tinggi sesuai dengan keinginan pasar secara efisien dan efektif tanpa mengurangi nilai budaya yang terkandung dalam songket. Selain itu meningkatkan ketrampilan dalam strategi pemasaran agar memiliki kemampuan dalam memasarkan songket yang di produksi, sehingga mampu menciptakan dan memiliki banyak jaringan pemasaran. Perlunya diberikan pelatihan yang memampukan pengrajin songket menghitung total pendapatan penjualan dan total biaya sehingga mampu mengetahui berapa laba yang diperoleh per satu potong songket. Diharapkan setelah pendampingan, para mitra menjadi lebih meningkat pengetahuannya, mampu mengaplikasikan pengetahuan tersebut dalam pekerjaan sehari-harinya dan menularkan pengetahuan tersebut kepada pengrajin songket yang lain. Dengan demikian semua pengrajin songket akan lebih berkembang, menjadi semakin mandiri secara ekonomis, terjadi peningkatan pendapatan, pengrajin songket menjadi lebih produktif serta semakin optimis dalam berusaha songket sehingga perekonomian bangsa akan menjadi lebih baik.
