FOMO IS DRIVING BUSINESSES TO SPEND MORE ON IT
Is Tech FOMO Driving Your Business Decisions?
Ever feel like you’re constantly trying to keep up with the latest technology? You’re not alone. Businesses are spending more on software than ever—partly due to FOMO (fear of missing out).
A recent report found that 76% of businesses are increasing their software budgets next year, with many boosting their spend by 5% to 15%.
Why the surge in spending?
No business owner wants to fall behind while competitors embrace the next big thing. Companies are investing in tools they believe will make them more efficient, secure, and competitive.
At the top of the list? Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI is streamlining operations, automating tasks, analyzing data, and enhancing customer service. But it’s also fueling cybercrime, forcing businesses to increase cybersecurity spending to protect their data.
Yet, the biggest challenge with new software isn’t the purchase—it’s the implementation. If your team isn’t trained, even the best tools won’t deliver results. That’s why many businesses are investing in learning management systems (LMS) to ensure employees can fully utilize new technology.
It’s tempting to jump on every new tech trend, but rushing in without a clear strategy can backfire. The key is choosing software that fits your business needs and ensuring your team is prepared to use it.
Before investing, ask yourself:
? Do we need to improve efficiency?
? Is our data security a priority?
? Will this help our team collaborate better?
FOMO may be driving the trend, but smart businesses make informed decisions—using expert insights, reviews, and strategic planning.
