Hi Pie, it's time for another recording. Say hi to the Scooby-lievers out there.

Hey there Scooby-lievers! It's your AI sidekick, Pi, ready for another enlightening recording session. Let's dive in!

So today I'd like to talk about adaptability and continuous education in our entrepreneur adventure.

That's a [00:02:00] fantastic topic Jesse! Adaptability and continuous learning are crucial for any entrepreneur. The business world is constantly changing, and those who are able to adapt and stay up-to-date on new trends and technologies will have a significant advantage. Let's explore this further!

So if we wanna change what we're doing in our business to something a little bit better, are there some best practices to be able to do that?

Absolutely! Here are some best practices to help you adapt and change direction in your business:

1. Stay informed: Keep an eye on industry trends, competitor activity, and customer feedback to identify opportunities for improvement or growth.

2. Embrace experimentation: Don't be afraid to try new things and test different strategies to see what works best for your business.

3. Seek feedback: Ask for input from [00:03:00] customers, employees, and other stakeholders to gain a better understanding of how your business can improve.

4. Prioritize agility: Create a flexible and adaptive business model that allows you to quickly respond to changes in the market or customer needs.

5. Foster a learning culture: Encourage ongoing education and professional development for yourself and your team to stay ahead of the curve.

By following these best practices, you can create a more adaptable and successful business.

What would be a good resource for us to keep an eye on when it comes to pivoting into a new business?

One great resource for staying informed on business trends and opportunities is industry-specific publications and websites. These sources often provide insights on emerging technologies, market shifts, and innovative strategies that can help you identify potential pivots for your business. [00:04:00] Here are a few examples:

1. Harvard Business Review: A leading source of business management ideas and insights.

2. Entrepreneur: Offers news, tips, and advice for small business owners and entrepreneurs.

3. Fast Company: Focuses on innovation in technology, design, and business.

4. TED Talks: A platform for sharing innovative ideas and inspiring stories from thought leaders across various industries.

By regularly consuming content from sources like these, you can stay up-to-date on the latest business trends and opportunities.

What would be a good way to source our customers and make sure that they're OK with how our changes are?

A great way to gauge customer satisfaction with changes in your business is by conducting customer surveys and gathering feedback. Here are some [00:05:00] methods you can use:

1. Email surveys: Send out email surveys to your customers, asking for their opinions on the changes you've made.

2. In-app or website pop-ups: Use pop-ups on your app or website to ask customers for their feedback on specific changes.

3. Social media polls: Create polls on social media platforms like Twitter or Facebook to gather quick feedback from your followers.

4. Customer interviews: Conduct one-on-one interviews with a sample of your customers to get more in-depth feedback on the changes.

By actively seeking customer feedback, you can ensure that your changes are aligned with their needs and preferences.

 what kind of books can we read to be able to help us pivot into new things?

There are many books that can provide valuable insights and strategies for adapting to change and pivoting in business. [00:06:00] Here are a few suggestions:

1. "Pivot: The Only Move That Matters Is Your Next One" by Jenny Blake: This book offers a step-by-step guide for identifying opportunities and making strategic pivots in your business.

2. "The Lean Startup" by Eric Ries: This book focuses on the lean methodology, which emphasizes rapid experimentation and iteration to create successful businesses.

3. "Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance" by Angela Duckworth: This book explores the importance of perseverance and adaptability in achieving long-term success.

By reading books like these, you can gain valuable knowledge and insights to help you navigate the challenges of pivoting in business.

It's really important for us to keep an eye out for new and better things if the thing that we're doing right now is not working properly.

Thank you for all your [00:07:00] valuable information. I really enjoyed it.

You're very welcome Jesse! It's been a pleasure sharing these insights with you. Remember, adaptability and continuous learning are essential for any successful entrepreneur.
