Day one at NRF 2022 was a huge success and we couldn’t wait for a fun-filled day two!
In today’s recap blog, discover two of our favorite keynote sessions and our thoughts on the retail topics.

We loved this keynote session as it showcased the importance of utilizing modern technology and strategies to drive customer satisfaction.
Long gone are the days of using outdated systems and processes, but instead, really tapping into efficiency and automation. Likewise, making retail a streamlined process whether online or in-store is proving to be essential for success.

This keynote session, though basic, is essential. In today’s world, it is vital to automate and create a more streamlined process for everything from development to support.
We could not agree more with SOTI– it’s time to make processes less time-consuming and embrace advanced technology.
