The Growing Trust in Artificial Intelligence


Artificial intelligence has been a part of our everyday life for years in some shape or form, but the spectacular rise of ChatGPT and the resulting aggressive development pace of conversational and generative AI models is, for the first time ever, putting the core technology into the hands of the general public. Even though large language models currently in use are primarily able to guess the best-fitting next word in a sentence based on the corpus of content fed into them, CEOs, researchers and AI experts are now urging the industry to pump the brakes on training and developing models more capable than OpenAI's GPT-4. The latest large language model of the company is currently available in a limited capacity for ChatGPT Plus subscribers and will soon be integrated into Microsoft productivity and security products.

Future predictions for world’s top 10 cities

However, the economies keep changing, and the cities leading today might be resting somewhere down by 2035. The infographic below shows the predictions made for the top 10 cities of the world and where they will be by 2035. The predictions are made based on three metrics, i.e., gross domestic product, population, and GDP growth.

In terms of GDP, three cities are likely to be from the USA, even in the future as well. The cities would be New York, Los Angeles, and Chicago. Four out of the remaining seven will be from China, including Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen. Whereas London, Tokyo, and Paris will be the last three. Ironically, Tokyo currently rests at the number one position with an approximate GDP of $1.6 trillion in 2019.

Boost your business with strategic gifting

An organization is heavily dependent on people whether they are leads, prospects, employees or customers. These group of people make or break an organization. Every interaction holds an intrinsic value that is added to the organization.

Every single email and phone call, internal or external, and every point of communication matters. With technology, these interactions are now easy to track. There are a lot of sales and marketing tools out now, some better than the other. However, a single person receives over 100 email per day which is why business may have to look elsewhere to establish meaningful connection with their customers.

How does a working capital affect the potential growth of a company

Running a business and being oblivious to the term of working capital is not something to be proud of. In order to make sure that your business is in good hands for an extended period of time, you must make yourself familiar with the term “Working Capital”. Working capital is the calculation through which you can pay your liabilities through your current assets. This might sound like a not-so-easy calculation, but in reality, its role is much bigger than you can imagine.

What is the importance of a working capital?


The productivity of a company greatly depends on its liabilities and assets. Assets refer to the money a company has in store, while liability is basically the money a company sustains from various external sources for over some time of one business cycle. To keep a company’s financial status healthy, it must keep track of the working capital as its scale determines the growth meter of the company. As mentioned in the infographic, working capital holds significance for several reasons, like expanding your business, crisis management, attracting more clients, etc.

The formula of working capital


Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities

Getting Customer Conversion Via Lead Nurturing

A successful business revolves around the relationship it has with its customers. This just doesn't come by a stroke of luck. Well, maybe a bit, but it takes much more than that. Not only do you initiate a customer relationship, but you also have to constantly work at it. You can communicate with your customers using various methods- emails, calls, social media ads. What is truly important is that you are catering to the needs of your target audience.

Even if your business performance is intact, you cannot expect your customer conversion happening at the very first time. So, how do you actually do lead nurturing? Lead nurturing means that you think and care for your customers at every step during the sales- from the beginning till the very end. To carry this out properly, automation is very necessary.

How to create exponential growth for your business?
‘Exponential growth’ is a trending topic of the entrepreneur world and a feature – every startup strives for!

But what exactly is exponential growth and how do you achieve the phenomenon?

Exponential Growth
Exponential growth refers to the rate of change measured over a given number of equal time intervals. For example, when a business grows by 100% or more over multiple time intervals, each increase of 100% is added to the initial value – resulting in compounding and creating an environment of exponential growth.

In simple words, if your business grows 100% every year over multiple years – your business would begin to experience the required growth.

Exponential Growth Formula
The formula for exponential growth relies on the starting value of the metric you are using – such as the revenue or the number of users. This number is evaluated by the percent it increases over a specific time frame. The final number in the formula for exponential growth is the exponent itself.

  • Xt = X0(1+r)t
  • X0 = the starting value
  • r = rate of increase (or decrease if measuring exponential decay)
  • t = time in equal intervals expressed as an integer

Factors that boost exponential growth
The most important facilitator of exponential growth in marketing is the idea of viral coefficients. This protocol takes advantage of word-of-mouth marketing and aids in reaching exponential growth. This is followed by the network effect.

As the name implies, the network effect is the increase in number of users after friends, families, and other acquaintances start endorsing the same product or service.

Examples of exponential growth in business
Without even realizing, you are also responsible for the exponential growth of many products and services. Take for example, social media networks like Facebook, Instagram, and Snapchat. And what about ridesharing services like Uber. After the initial use of these services, it is likely that you have shared your experiences with others – hence, the growth.

Facebook
Facebook is one of the best examples of a business experiencing exponential growth. Launched in 2004, the social media network saw 1 million monthly active users in its first year. However, the number grew to 2.32 billion by the end of 2018 – signifying a 231,900% increase over the 14-year period. That’s a 13,753,150% increase over 14-years.

DiDi
Another popular example of exponential growth is seen in DiDi. A ride-hailing service based in China, the company was launched in 2012. However, today, it boasts 550 million users, employs 21 million drivers, and completes 30 million rides per day.

Strategies to achieve growth exponentially
Ultimately, you may be wondering how to reach exponential growth. Sadly, the pathway towards the growth is challenging and requires a very good idea that could lure the users away from the existing ones.  However, some tips to help you get started include:

User experience
One feature that plays a pivotal role in the success of a product is the ‘user-friendliness.’ Products that are complicated or confusing usually fail to attract the users and thus – fail to reach exponential growth as well.

The onboarding experience is another aspect that fuels the user’s expectations. This simply means educating the users on how to use the product – effectively.

Offering incentives for referrals and social sharing
Adding a ‘refer-a-friend’ program is helpful to incentivize a word-of-mouth recommendation within the user’ network. And even though it may seem like bribery – the tactic encourages participation and engagement.

Add Value
Too often, marketers use excessive push notifications, SMS marketing, email newsletter, and other digital mediums to advertise their latest products and offers. However, this usually annoys the users who may resort to boycotting the same product.

Instead, transform the marketing strategy and provide users with valuable information, breaking news, and timely updates.
