Or actually, is my solution no longer required?
So I think when you point to things like, say, the hospo industry where things are clearly tough, there's a pain point there that doesn't need to be solved as much because people are saying, yeah, I'd still like to eat out if you like and have the enjoyment of the social occasion and for many, frankly, not have to cook at home.
But I've got other choices that I've got to also deliver on.
So therefore, that's more of a pain point for me
like basically feeding the family, paying my rent, paying my rates.
That's more of a pain point than the joy of going out on a Friday or a Saturday night, or even just the daily cup of coffee.
So I think sometimes businesses forget that where they were solving a pain point or delivering a solution for customers, it's just not so important anymore.
And I think that's part of the challenge.
You go, well, I used to sell X number of cups of coffee per week.
Well, whatever, I don't drink coffee, I don't know.
But if it's five or six bucks a cup,
People just have other choices.
Well, frankly, they don't have choices about where they spend their money.
Therefore, that discretionary spend on a cup of coffee is no longer a priority or a pain point to be solved.
Yeah, it's interesting because I got sucked down a rabbit wire on Claude.
I'm loving it, you know, just to help.
Yes.
But I ended up, it was about two in the morning.
And I'm on my laptop and I'm messaging our team.
We're all asleep.
