With an endless stream of news articles, social media posts, and industry reports being published every day, it can be difficult to sift through the noise and identify the trends that are truly relevant to your business. Furthermore, trends are often fleeting, so companies need to be able to identify them quickly in order to stay ahead of the curve.
