What does it mean to be innovative in business?

In order for a business to survive in today's world, it is important that we regularly review what we are doing and how we are doing it. By considering new ideas and new ways of doing things, and trying to innovate, we can improve on our products/services, increase sales, reduce costs and make our processes more effective and efficient. Innovation is key to increasing profits.

There are several ways a company can be innovative with their products and services. Today we will look at four of them.

1. Using the latest technology to improve your product/service

When we think of innovation, we often think of new technologies. While they might be impressive, we should not use new technologies just because they are available. It is important to consider how the technology can improve our product/service and make a difference to our customer. Companies that produce cars, toiletries, household appliances, etc. often have a large R&D department to work on making their products better.

2. Responding to customer demands by changing what is on offer

By listening to customer feedback, we can get their opinions on how we are doing and find out about what it is that they want. We also need to be aware of changes in customer demands and keep up with the times. When fast-food restaurant McDonald's realised that the market wanted healthier choices, they introduced fruit and salads, while removing the 'super-size' option from their menus.

Meet the real man behind the name — Neil McTaggart.

In this video, I share the true-life background of Neil McTaggart, a young man from Scotland who emigrated to Canada in the 1920s. He is the inspiration behind my serialized audio book, and this clip gives you the historical and personal context behind the fiction.

🪨 From the stone he carried in his pocket to the life he built abroad, Neil’s journey is one of survuval and change.

📚 About the Series

My serialized book, based on Neil's life, blends historical fact with fictional storytelling. This video sets the scene and introduces you to the real person whose life sparked the story.
