Companies globally are taking advantage of technology to cut cost of power and hence improve energy and efficiency. They also reduce the number of equipment to be used to run different tasks. With the introduction of the internet, companies globally have embraced virtual products. Gone are the days when companies relied on doing business with tangible goods and services. To expand market share, companies must seek to advance in technology since currently customers are going virtual which is affordable and efficient. Thanks to the internet, business owners can easily outsource and seize the opportunity to cut cost. Technology has also helped businesses manage hard-copy documents. Storing and tracking can be quite a challenge but this has been overcome by having soft-copies hence cutting cost on document management. The other aspect to consider is optimizing in networking. This involves careful forms of business that enhance operational efficiency, cost maximization and performance reviews. Companies need to maintain tight operational expenditure especially during economic uncertainty but still avoid compromising on quality of products and services. As much as the timing may be perfect for companies to cut costs, still most companies are collapsing. Therefore allow me to say cost cutting is not necessarily the way forward to ensure survival in this current economical crisis. Mr Adrian Chedore, CEO of Synovate which owns Steadman Limited puts it right when he says, "bad times are when competitors leave opportunities on the table. Once missed, such opportunities are far difficult to realize when times get better again..." For sure the internet has positively affected the way of conducting business, and in the process ensured survival of companies in these hard economical times.
