In an increasingly competitive business world, both individuals and companies need to be able to set themselves apart from the rest whilst being mindful of running an efficient business. As processes, transactions, manufacturing, and a whole other host of operational activities become increasingly automated and bring efficiencies to the bottom line, what is it that will propel a business to be better than their competitors? In a word: ideas. Ideas are the most valuable currency of our business landscape and will only become more important in the future. Why? Because creativity cannot be automated. An automated telephone service that deals with your customers is brilliant at taking payment or giving order statuses, but it is pretty rubbish at coming up with ways to wow your customers and delight them with new initiatives.
