While most tradies are great at what they do, as they should be…they’re quite often not the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to marketing, online promoting and community engagement, that’s why we created our TRADIE DIGITAL SUPPORT PACKAGE because they don’t need to be jacks of all trades, just masters at what they do and they can leave the rest to us… The first round filled up fast, we now have spaces open for the next round of 10 tradies who aren’t tools and wanna get on with doing what they do, while we take care of the rest… It’s all about supporting, helping and giving small business a hand up, instead of them sitting around waiting for hand outs…if you know someone who we can help and can benefit from this limited time only offer tag them in the comments below…if you need a hand and this sounds like it could help, don’t be a tool, slide into our DMs and let’s get you sorted…now! Let’s GO!

Love this guys! Steve Agi you should connect with Ron Shell to talk about all things PICKLEBALL & PICKLEPALOOZA '24....

My first thought, after receiving an advance copy of a press release announcing Square’s new self-serve ordering kiosks for restaurants, was, “Didn’t they do this already?” The answer is no, they didn’t, now they did! Square’s new kiosks are a fully integrated hardware, software, and payments solution for quick service restaurants. (Previously, the company supported third-party kiosk apps & hardware.) The kiosks integrate with Square’s point of sale systems and its broader payments products. A necessary move for Square in its bid to serve more restaurants without relying on third party hardware and integrations. Connected kiosks, whether in-house or third-party software, are proving critical to quick-service restaurant success in a number of ways… Call it a Covid relic or just a symptom of a shifting consumer base… people love ordering from a screen. The latest data shows that 65% of adults would be happy to order from a kiosk — but that number is skewed by respondents age 60 and over. 89% of millennials, 77% of gen Z adults, and 84% of gen Xers said they’re into it. Shake Shack is a perfect example of the tech’s evolution. Former CEO Randy Garutti explained kiosks as a modern hospitality offering, giving guests a tool to complete an in-store order quickly. Kiosks are the chain’s largest ordering channel and its most profitable. For those who scoff at the technology, READ THAT LINE AGAIN! In fact, kiosks work so well for the brand that the company hastened their rollout last year, adding them to all stores ahead of schedule. Expect to see more kiosks in more restaurants. The same research also found that 1 in 4 restaurant operators plan to devote more resources to self-service ordering and payment tech, like kiosks, this year. Without ignoring glaring issues like the pressure that diners feel to order quickly at kiosks if there’s a line behind them. People feel more anxious about long lines when they’re self-ordering than when they order from a person — presumably because a diner might share the blame for traditional delays with the employee manning the register, issues like causing customers to rush, ordering fewer items than they might have otherwise, or defaulting to a frequent order instead of trying something new are concerning, but the screens probably still have the advantage. Brandon Barton CEO of Bite, a kiosk ordering company said “one is not the right number” of kiosks. Their promise, he said, is that restaurants can install a lot of them — as many as they need during busy hours — and even tweak the tech to move faster during certain hours, or offer a limited menu of most popular items.” It’s clearly not designed as a one size fits all solution, but like it or not, kiosks are here to stay…will you choose to pivot and adapt to take advantage of tech opportunities or will you conti us to do the same old thing and hope for a different outcome?

Should I Buy A Business Or Start My Own? For anyone wanting a business, this question might be weighing on your mind: Do I buy a business, or start one from scratch? Each path has its own set of challenges, potential gains & risks. Let’s take a look at the pros and cons of whether to buy a business or to start a business from scratch, feel free to comment below with opinions, advice and your own experiences: Buy a Business Venturing into entrepreneurship through acquisition can be a great choice as a solid foundation exists, structural integrity is proven, and there is room for customization. When you buy a business, you're buying into an existing brand, customer base, operational framework, and, in some cases, an already-established revenue stream. However, there are also potential drawbacks to buying a business. Let’s explore the pros and cons of buying a business more closely. Purchasing a business comes with advantages. These include: Instant market access: when you buy a business, you jump straight into the market. Tangible assets: From physical property to trademarked intellectual property, the assets of a business acquired are readily identifiable and provide immediate value. Risk mitigation: With historical financials and operational data at your disposal, you can make informed decisions that mitigate some of the risks typically associated with startup ventures. Established reputation: A good standing in the market is another asset that saves you years of brand building. While the benefits are clear, acquiring a business has disadvantages as well. Hurdles can include: Initial investment: The upfront cost of purchasing a business can be significant and is often the prime deterrent for many aspiring business owners. Potential baggage and legacy brand issues: you're not thorough in the due diligence process, you may inherit more than you bargained for. Innovation vs tradition: Navigating the adoption of new technologies and methodologies can be challenging within an established business that might be resistant to change. Starting Your Own Business Starting a business from scratch is a process crafted from your own vision, requiring more time, effort, and patience. A new beginning presents immense challenges, but the creative freedom it allows and the unique vision it enables to be realized can be its own reward. When you start your own business, you create your destiny. This allows you flexibility & freedom: Of course, starting a new business is not without its challenges, like the unknown market, Resource constraints, Customer acquisition, Resilience and depth to withstand early failures. The decision of buying a business or starting your own are not yes or no options. They are different points on the same spectrum of entrepreneurship, each with its own merit and decisions. Both paths are viable, and the success hinges upon thoughtful consideration, thorough planning, and decisive action.
