Click here to subscribe to the ‘Smart Time Online Podcast’ in iTunes
Less than 10 years ago, Facebook didn’t exist. Bluetooth technology was all the rage, and cellphones we’re just starting to come with megapixel cameras. Times were changing, and they were changing fast; if you had a business that was rigid against the changes in technology, it was about to go under.
Borders, Blockbuster, CompUSA, Compaq, and MCI are only a few of the companies that have gone under because of the change in tech weather – and we can learn valuable business lessons from these companies.
Of all the lessons to learn, I think one of the most valuable is how changes in technology trends can mean major shifts in a market.
In this episode of the Smart Time Online podcast, we’ll dive into the 5 tech trends that are changing business online.
