  • Twitter (TWTR) accounts belonging to Joe Biden, Bill Gates, Elon Musk and Apple, among other prominent handles, were compromised on Wednesday and posted tweets that appeared to promote a cryptocurrency scam.
  • Twitter's support account said: "We are aware of a security incident impacting accounts on Twitter. We are investigating and taking steps to fix it. We will update everyone shortly."
  • A little more than an hour after the attack began, Twitter apparently moved to prevent holders of verified accounts from tweeting.

  • A hack like this is particularly concerning not just because of any financial scam that can be run, but because so many world leaders use Twitter -- and some, like President Donald Trump, use it to announce major policy decisions. A hack that took over an account belonging to one of those leaders could have devastating consequences.
  • "We are aware of today's security incident involving several Twitter accounts belonging to high profile individuals," the FBI's San Francisco field office said in a statement. "The accounts appear to have been compromised in order to perpetuate cryptocurrency fraud. We advise the public not to fall victim to this scam by sending cryptocurrency or money in relation to this incident."

  • As marketers, we see it everywhere: Affixed to the claims of the latest marketing tech, alongside warnings that it will eradicate jobs like content production, and peppered into predictions of coming trends.
  • “the next big thing.” In this case, they either become numb to mention of AI because it’s usually not actionable or approachable, or they’re disillusioned because it’s just a catchy term for tools that aren’t really AI.
  • At the Marketing Artificial Intelligence Institute, we’ve talked for a long time about the importance of AI, and more recently, about the massive impact of early adoption on an organization’s ability to get ahead.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Early AI adopters, or AI “Pioneers,” are actively “establishing positions in both customer and labor markets that may make it hard for others to draft off of their hard work. The many advantages reported by Pioneers suggest that early AI movers may be especially hard to catch.”
  • That caliber of competitive advantage is hard to ignore. And research is continually proving the benefits of getting ahead of the AI curve.
  • AI can deliver true value to the serious adopters—vast improvements in day-to-day business functions, higher profit margins, and a widening performance gap. 
  • the companies that moved past the uncertainty and seriously invested in AI saw real results.
  • Those who combined an already strong digital foundation with proactive strategies saw massive increases in profit margin, and the performance gap between them and the AI laggards will continue to grow.
  • Not only are they set up for success as AI continues to take off, they aren’t implementing to save on business expenses. Instead, early AI adopters focused on increasing revenue and market share—the cost reduction potential comes secondarily.
  • Many organizations are taking a “wait and see” approach, but the need to act is urgent. Going from a theoretical understanding of what's possible with AI to understanding the actual use cases for your business is difficult—but essential.
  • But you and your organization have the opportunity now to be proactive in advancing knowledge and capabilities before your competitors beat you to it.

  • Imagine a situation where you could consistently save up to 5% on your weekly labor costs.
  • When it comes to saving on labor costs, the data that your POS system and scheduling software generate can help you determine the optimal number of staff members you need at any given time.
  • To get a quick and accurate picture of your labor effectiveness, sales per man hour (SPMH) is a great technique to employ. By calculating how much revenue is generated by a certain number of employees in an hour, you can optimize the staff needed to match your hourly revenue. The higher the productivity of your team, the lower the hours – which results in a lower labor percentage.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • To determine your restaurant’s SPMH, divide your projected gross revenue per hour by the total number of employees hours scheduled in the same hour. This information can easily be exported from your smart POS system.
  • Forecasted revenue is one of the most common and accurate ways to ensure staffing at a labor cost percentage that is profitable for you. Revenue forecasting is accomplished by looking at your POS data from past periods to make an educated guess on what your future revenue will be on a weekly, daily or hourly basis.
  • If you have smart employee scheduling software you can automate these forecasts from your POS system and have them match them up with your target labor costs.

  • A modern cloud based PMS like Jonas Chorum also helps your team collaborate on reservations.  Your call center agents can quickly access and manage current bookings.  Your sales team can check to see which inventory is available and can be promised to new groups.  Your front desk agents use the PMS to create last minute walk in bookings.
  • A good property management system not only makes basic hotel operations more efficient for your front desk team, but it also allows the check-in process to be a positive part of the guest experience.
  • With a property management system in place, the front desk agent can find the guest’s booking in just a few clicks and immediately see the guest’s history, preferences, and reservation details. From there, the agent can check the guest in or out, move them to a new room, extend their stay, change their payment method, and more in seconds.
  • Financial software can not only keep your finance department sane, but also help you uncover trends that can prevent your hotel from losing money. 
  • Good finance technology can save your accounting team from a mountain of work by automating payroll, creating invoice templates, and even compiling reports on the hotel’s financial activities.

  • Engineering software allows hotel staff to submit service orders that can be actioned by the maintenance team, ensuring that nothing gets overlooked or forgotten. The engineering team can even access these systems from their smartphones, so if an urgent service request comes up, someone can handle it immediately.
