Stay Abreast of Consumer Trends
Focusing on high-growth trends and being willing to move from successful "old" technologies to current or future technologies will provide germination for future growth and success. I'm currently on my way home from a business trip as I write this. My plan is to grab a bag of steamable broccoli, garlic, imported Italian pasta, a small bottle of unfiltered extra virgin olive oil, a $13 bottle of wine, and a loaf of bread. I'm looking forward to 20 minutes in the kitchen and a restaurant-quality dinner and wine with my wife at a fraction of the cost and time to have a similar fine meal at a local restaurant. How many others are doing something similar and what is your company doing to capitalize on this? Don't gamble on your company's future. Watch how consumers are changing and invest in the future.
