Regenerative Business: how learning skills affects the regeneration capacity of your business

Technology and Environmental, Social and Governance issues (ESG / ESG) have become some of the fundamental pillars for almost any entrepreneur or entrepreneur who wants to grow. The era of sustainability has passed. Unfortunately, our planet and our existence already need a new proposal. Now, it is not enough that business is sustainable. They need to take an active role in the regeneration of our ecosystem.

Therefore the need to move towards a new era of Regenerative Business, which actively operates with restorative models, from the point of view of people and the business itself. These models go beyond the zero result in impact (net zero) or carbon neutrality in their chain.They can create formats that favor the restoration of the ecosystems in which they are included.

In this model, the business processes created by the company are literally designed to be regenerative for the environment in which they generate impacts. This means not only using renewable inputs, but going further and creating ways that the very logic of extractive these inputs allow the ecosystem to flourish even more by the presence of that company in the extraction environment.

Nature is, in itself, totally efficient and self-regenerative. Think that corporate regenerative systems are us humans, acting and doing things as nature itself (regenerative living systems). 

There are four environments for regeneration to occur in a systemic way: in business, in the economy, in people and in organizational culture. From the point of view of the first two, we need to understand that the transformations occur within the business model.

Whether on the one hand or the other, if the company does not integrate and embodies the ability to generate and capture value, the impact does not become systemic. That is, without developing new skills and competencies, no business can say that it is undergoing a transformation.

Although very relevant today, technologies alone are not the answer. It is not enough to train the level of leadership in Artificial Intelligence if the next day there is no impact on the business model or the operation of your company. However the mastery of technological skills is precisely the differential that ensures agility in the transformation journeys.

Regeneration goes beyond resilience and sustainability. It is a strategy that drives the company and requires it to become a protagonist in its chain of impacts. Regenerative business models require a holistic approach, where business processes are intentionally planned to be beneficial to the ecosystem.

Technology as a potentiator of business transformation

Despite the many concerns about the exponential use of AI solutions is increasing considerably the consumption of electricity in the world, the technology itself is also a solution path.

In the first versions of blockchain we live the intensive need for electricity use, including to cool the data processing structures. But, for example, more rationalized formats of solution architecture and new technologies have allowed a reduction of more than 90% of this consumption in the latest generations of Ethereum applications.

And when we look at AI, we start to get a taste of this potentially promising scenario: the Ark Invest points out that AI tools can increase the productivity of collaborating people by almost 140% in the next eight years. In financial terms, this amounts to an increase of approximately US$ 50 thousand per working person, resulting in US$ 56 trillion worldwide. This availability of time and resources could change the level of businesses that are ready for this transition.

However, people and companies that are in a greater state of readiness for the agile changes that we will live in the coming years, be they climate, behavior and technology, can benefit from this new moment.In this context, the learning of tech skills is increasingly relevant not only for the IT areas of companies. 

There is a high correlation between individuals who value continuous learning and the development of high-performance environments in companies. People with a growth mindset, those who constantly seek improvement and learning, bring a positive dynamic to the workplace.These individuals not only hone their own skills, but also inspire their colleagues to do the same, creating a virtuous cycle of development and innovation. 

Companies that encourage learning and intellectual curiosity tend to have more robust and resilient organizational cultures.When employees feel they have the freedom and support to explore new ideas and acquire new knowledge, they feel more engaged and motivated. 

The time has passed for us to have the privilege of pushing the problems we inherit to the next generations.The challenges of the future have never been more noticeable in our daily lives. And the next generation of leaders needs to understand that the great limiter of a more promising future is our own inability to think differently and act mindset leadership is our greatest threat to the future.

Alva increases sales by 56 times through Retail Media

The beauty and cosmetics market in Brazil has registered a significant growth, with an increase of 5.8% in sales in 2023, according to data from the Brazilian Association of the Personal Hygiene, Perfumery and Cosmetics Industry (ABIHPEC). The forecast is that the sector will reach US$33.14 billion in 2024, with an expected expansion to US$44.03 billion by 2029, according to a survey by Mordor Intelligence. 

Driven by the positive moment of this market and inspired by values of integral health and transparency, in 2008 Alva was founded to offer natural personal care products, based on purity, quality, practicality and responsibility. Although it had clear differentials in relation to other brands in the market, last year faced great challenges in online commerce, being part of a highly competitive category, in which major players dominated the entire space.

To boost its results on the platform, Alva decided to seek an agency specialized in Retail Media, an advertising strategy that promotes products in a targeted way within marketplaces, in order to increase sales directly where purchases are made. This is how it chose ProfitlogiQ, Retail Media agency specialized in optimization through artificial intelligence. 

“The partnership with ProfitlogiQ was a game changer for Alva. We were able to implement 360° strategies that not only increased our visibility, but also helped us reach new customers and retain existing ones,”, says Alexandre Luz, CFO of Alva.

The strategy designed was focused on increasing brand awareness, acquiring new users and preparing for important seasonality such as Black Friday.“A Alva had a great growth potential that was unlocked, we went far beyond the niche that the brand initially operated. This was only possible through the implementation of specific Retail Media strategies. Our goal was not only to make sales grow, but also to ensure that the brand had a significant return on investment”, highlights Alexandra Avelar, Country Manager of Brazil at ProfitlogiQ.

Comparing the previous period, August 2023, with November 2023, during Black Friday, Alva saw its sales increase 56 times and the number of orders grow 70 times. During the action period, the brand stood out as the best-selling in the deodorant category, competing directly with large traditional companies in the market. It also registered a 22-fold increase in product sales and a ROAS (Return on Investments in Ads) of 183%. In addition, the cost per conversion was reduced by 53, demonstrating the effectiveness of the brand, the first and first 23.

Based on these results, Alva plans to continue expanding its Retail Media operations.The company is already preparing to start campaigns with Amazon DSP and foresees new product lines, including one for children and another for sun protection.This year, Alva will again take advantage of the seasonality of Black Friday, with even more aggressive expectations. 

“The success we have achieved so far is just the beginning.We are excited to explore new opportunities and continue growing in retail media with the support of ProfitlogiQ”, concludes Alexandre Luz.

Digitization is still a challenge in Food Service, a market that is expected to move R$ 35 billion by 2032

The global food service market reached a significant value of US$ 2,721.5 billion in 2022, with optimistic projections for the coming years. According to the survey “Food Service” Market Research Future, this segment is expected to reach the US$ 7,249.067 billion mark by 2032 (that is, value close to R$ 35 billion), with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 11.50%.

Among the main drivers, we highlight the changes in food tastes and preferences, with a growing demand for ready-to-eat foods.In addition, the search for more innovative and personalized meal alternatives has driven the sector. Given this scenario, investment in technology is critical to keep up with changes in consumer behavior, especially in the current context, where delivery and applications have played a significant role.

However, according to Carlos Drechmer, CEO of ACOM Sistemas, a technology company for food service management, many establishments still face challenges in the transition to the digital environment, resulting in financial losses and operational efficiency.

The transition to a paperless environment is an essential step towards modernizing the industry.Although many resist change, adopting digital technologies can bring significant benefits such as increased operational efficiency and a better customer experience.

One example is the use of technology in meeting tax and business commitments, in which many documents have delivery time and require storage. Or, the use of omnichannel platforms, which integrate different communication and sales channels. This approach not only improves the customer experience, but also optimizes internal processes. “Atending the customer in a more personalized way and integrating different means of contact helps in the operation and leads to the loyalty of”, explains Francisco Gioielli, CEO of Atena.ai, a company specialized in automation.

Regarding inventories, paperless is fundamental both to avoid waste and to ensure conscious consumption. After all, keeping stocks organized and updated is synonymous with saving time and money. “With digitized inventory and real-time information, it is possible to avoid unnecessary purchases, end the depreciation of unused inputs and even increase market competitiveness, since it is possible to negotiate prices with suppliers to the extent that one knows the real demand of their establishment”, points out Drechmer.

Food Service Paperless: how to take the first step?

First of all, it is necessary that the owners of food service establishments keep in mind that “ cannot be taken a step higher than the” leg, as the popular saying goes. “Ou is, it is a gradual process, and that it will need investments in good technologies. In addition, frank communication with the different generations of professionals will also be necessary, since the younger, the greater the inclination to the technological world”, comments Gioelli.

At the beginning, online forms will help replace printed ones and offer an alternative to filling in data. These must also be always up to date, and still meet the provisions of the General Data Protection Law (LGPD). For this to happen and for the next step, which is the analysis of this data, a management system is required.

Drechmer states that one of the main challenges of the sector today is still the resistance to digital. For him, it is essential to embrace a new cultural change. This includes involving employees in all phases of the digital transformation process, providing effective training and continuous support. In addition, it is essential to highlight the benefits of the paperless system, such as greater cost reduction, reduced rework, environmental sustainability and optimizing the operation.

A novelty that will be launched soon by ACOM reinforces the company's commitment to expand the digital environment. The new solution focuses on supporting the control of business movements, taking care of the sales process and also monitoring operational expenses. In the end this reflects a faster and more strategic analysis of the business, by tools such as DRE of accounting Statement of Exercise Outcome. The solution in question is already in the testing phase with some customers.

“Our goal is to facilitate the analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of a company, which can benefit the restaurant both in management and results. We want the customer to win, either in agility, either by increasing the number of customers or optimizing the workforce, which is already scarce. The purpose is that it becomes more competitive and always ensures more satisfactory results in the end”, says the CEO of ACOM.
