Awesome week for That Planning Guy — and its still only Wednesday.
Tuesday attending the Platt Retail Institute Analytics event was great. SO many smart people in one event. Learned a lot of fun things about signage and a different perception of what a ‘sign’ can do. Then a visit to the Murtec conference, and some time in Restaurant Tech- great to hear innovations in other industries.
Dinner @ Olives Tuesday with a great crew, and dinner at Lago tonight with same crew, but expanded. Met some smart restaurant people doing some really interesting IT/tech things. Still curious who if anyone is doing any pricing analytics? Love to hear about that.
Rest of week could be even more telling as this journey continues. A few phone calls and a few email conversations still to have.
Come gather ’round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin’
Then you better start swimmin’
Or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin’
-Bob Dylan.
