Industry: Plain Community

Where has the year gone? It's hard to believe we are less than 4 months away from 2025. As you gear up for business in the new year, there are several key areas for business owners to focus on: people, employee engagement, work-life balance, automation, customer experience, data analytics, cybersecurity, and data protection. Succeeding in 2025 will require more than just keeping up with trends; the key is proactively adapting and being willing to innovate.

Reflecting on our previous issue of Plain & Simple, a lot of the issues people were dealing with last Fall still remain true, including labor shortages and supply chain issues. Only now we’ve also added inflation that hasn’t been seen in years, rising fuel and energy prices, and general uncertainty around global security and the global economy.
