Hive Recommends
Finding the right leads, with the right needs at the right time and with the right budget and authority to move forward with your solution takes time and a lot of effort.
The accelerating pace of change in the retail landscape, driven by factors like AI, the cost of living crisis, and evolving customer expectations, presents both challenges and opportunities for retailers. Budgets are tightening and decision-making processes are becoming more complex, so for innovators offering solutions to retailers the need to connect with prospects at the right point in their buying cycle is crucial.
