Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Am I getting old, or is business really moving this much faster?” You are not alone. The reality is, the pace of business is accelerating at an unprecedented rate. As someone who has spent their entire career in tech, I can confirm that the speed of business is indeed increasing like never before.
Technology is driving much of this change. Zoom has replaced the conference room, facilitating decisions within hours rather than waiting weeks for a face-to-face meeting. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is evolving at an exponential rate, and its adoption is becoming more widespread. Social media and the 24/7 news cycle can alter consumer preferences overnight. Inflation is forcing customers to pinch pennies, and state governments are increasing minimum wages. Today, an event on the other side of the globe can empty your shelves by tomorrow morning.
Your Next Technology Investment Should Make Your Life Easier
Capitalizing on Consumer Trends
“The analytics software that is Taiga pulls data in real time. It is user friendly and what you can access in real time is unbelievable”
Maintaining Your Margins
Costs are changing every month, and maintaining your margins on every product is a significant challenge. Let your technology handle the heavy lifting by sifting through data and highlighting key pricing decisions.
Instant Alerts
Leverage AI to detect anomalies in your data so you can resolve important issues within hours rather than days. For instance, if fuel sales drop by 25% at your busiest dispenser, your maintenance team will be alerted, allowing the issue to be resolved before it becomes a painful problem.
Don’t Put the Cart Before the Horse
Before adding new technology systems, ensure you can measure their impact on your business. Take self-checkout as an example—there are many stories about its successes and failures. Having access to the right data will enable you to adjust your strategy as needed to ensure successful implementation.
