“To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.” – Winston Churchill Are you ready for the new normal? Consider these facts:
  • There are more mobile Internet users than desktop users. There are 3.5 billion global mobile Internet users as of August 2017.
  • Over 85 million photos and videos are shared on Instagram daily.
  • There are 1.24 billion websites in the world.
  • 7 Zettabytes of data exist in the digital universe today.
  • More data was created in 2017 than the previous 5,000 years of humanity.
  • Cyber Fraud hits an all-time high, data theft now surpassing the stealing of physical assets.
Consumer expectations driven by technology are evolving faster than ever. They want everything. Now. Impatience is a virtue. This might just be the mantra for today’s connected consumer. They live in an on-demand environment where, with a few taps and swipes of their mobile device, they can have what they want, when they want it. As technology delivers increasingly instant gratification, the more it sets a new standard for customer expectations.
