Uncertainty Presents Opportunity

There is a lot of uncertainty as we start 2023.

The threat of recession looms, labour shortages continue, supply chains have not fully recovered and demand remains unstable in the face of persistent inflation. Many expected the business landscape to return to normal once restrictions lifted, but that has not happened.

At Strategic Specialists Group, we are not advising businesses to wait for normal to return.

Instead, you should be treating the current uncertainty as an opportunity.

One of our clients a long-standing supplier to the construction industry lives by a simple philosophy: “Uncertainty presents opportunity”. During the GFC in 2007, while many competitors were trying to steady the ship, they went looking for openings. They leaned into their strengths, adapted their plans and increased revenue by 117 per cent during one of the biggest downturns in decades.

They did it again in 2020. With uncertainty at an all-time high, they knew opportunities would appear. Working with them, we identified the strongest areas to focus on and shifted their effort into product innovation, expanding inventory and repositioning their brand. Through 2021, revenue increased 127 per cent their strongest growth in 15 years.

With uncertainty rising again as we head into 2023, we are preparing to repeat the process with them.

We can do the same with your business.

We specialise in finding the opportunities others hesitate to chase and building plans that turn uncertainty into competitive advantage.
