Clients keep asking us the same thing: does my cookie banner protect me from these website tracking lawsuits? For most sites, no. The banner is decoration. And the threat behind the question is real and growing fast — reportedly 800+ CIPA claims filed in 2025, with 2026 projected to see tens of thousands of claims […]
The Logic of Waiting There is a rational instinct to wait before taking action on AI. The technology is moving incredibly fast, which creates a fear that whatever you implement today will be obsolete in six months. You are busy running a business, managing drivers, and dealing with rising insurance costs. Implementation requires time and […]
The Illusion of Progress There is a moment in almost every operation where someone decides to try AI on their own. A dispatcher uses ChatGPT to draft an email to a frustrated customer. A sales rep tests a new prompt they saw on social media to rewrite a quote. A technician pulls out their phone […]
The Cost of Waiting for the Future It’s hard to ignore the noise around AI right now. You hear about it at conferences, from vendors, and in trade publications. The conversation is constant, but it happens at a level that rarely translates to daily operations. It’s framed as a “massive shift that will transform the […]
What worked still feels familiar Many operators continue to rely on a go-to-market approach that has produced results for years. When something has worked over a long period of time, it becomes embedded in how the business operates. There’s a level of trust in it, and changing it can feel unnecessary or even risky. That […]
Companies are spending serious money on AI right now. McKinsey’s 2024 State of AI report found that 65% of organizations are regularly using generative AI — nearly double the rate from just a year prior. And yet, a Rand Corporation study found that 80% of AI projects either fail outright or never make it to […]
(And How to Manage Each One) You’ve been in the meetings. Someone on your team won’t stop talking about the latest AI prompt they discovered on TikTok over the weekend. Someone else hasn’t opened ChatGPT once. And somewhere in between, the rest of your team is trying to figure out where they stand. After delivering […]
Most motorcoach operators spend the majority of their time chasing new trips. At first, that makes sense. When a business is getting started, every client is new. Every booking requires outreach, quoting, and follow-up. The entire model is built around finding the next opportunity. The problem is that the model rarely evolves at the same […]
It’s familiar for a reason Most motorcoach businesses didn’t land in school trips, sports teams, and seasonal tourism by accident. Those channels have been around for a long time. Schools and athletic programs often have established procurement processes, and once an operator is in rotation, the work tends to repeat. Seasonal tourism follows a similar […]
It worked. Until it didn’t. There’s nothing inherently wrong with building a business where the phone rings. For years, that was the model. Strong relationships drove repeat business, and word of mouth carried real weight. Demand materialized without much intentional effort behind the scenes. A lot of operators built solid, durable businesses that way. But […]
