Businesses could be dealing with inflation due to rising prices and supply chain issues for the next year or more, so it’s important to have a strategy. This episode of On the Mark offers five tactics businesses can consider that might help navigate any potential challenges. Host Gene Marks, a CPA and small-business owner, shares what he has discussed with his clients, including raising prices and using targeted communication through a customer relationship management system to accomplish this. He also suggests practicing shrink-flation by delivering less product while holding prices steady. Consider getting into long-term contracts to reduce risk, as well as buying as much inventory now and finally investing in technology to improve efficiencies.
