243: 250 Years of Change: Why Adaptation Wins (And What It Means for Your Business)
About this episode
Candace discusses the importance of adaptation in business, drawing lessons from America's 250-year history.
It's July. America just turned 250. And Candace is pulling a powerful thread through this month's focus in Pet Boss Nation: Work Smarter, Earn More, Adapt Faster. In 250 years, this country has survived wars, depressions, booms, the Industrial Revolution, the rise of the automobile, the telephone, the internet. Entire industries disappeared. Entire industries that didn't exist a generation ago became the backbone of the economy. The pattern? The businesses that lasted weren't the ones who had it all figured out. They were the ones who kept adjusting. Who paid attention. Who weren't afraid to pivot. Candace discusses: 🇺🇸 The Wrigley story (why a soap company built a gum empire by paying attention to what people actually wanted) 🇺🇸 How adaptation is what separates businesses that last from ones that disappear 🇺🇸 How to "work smarter" using the data already inside your point-of-sale system 🇺🇸 Simple strategies to "earn more" 🇺🇸 AI as a tool, not a replacement (just like the telephone or internet was!) Plus hacks on using AI for admin work that frees you up to do the parts of your business that only you can do!Transcript Show Notes Join Us Online Find us on Facebook Join…
