Why Customer Centric Solutions Must Be Your Startup Strong Point

LONDON, Sep 12, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Jennifer O. Orode, Chief Executive Officer, Ingenium Concepts Limited, discusses the importance of Customer Service Relationships in today's business world, and the key to understanding the role of customer satisfaction in startups: Grow your organization by implementing a crucial customer experience processes. This is the key to keep clients coming back to your business repeatedly.

"With top-notch customer service, Startups can cut down on customer acquisition costs and develop a loyal following. Loyal customers even bring companies more business. They convince other prospects to purchase your brand and that is great free advertising for any business," said Ms Orode.

Businesses should be aware that providing excellent customer service has effects that reach beyond business culture. In fact, offering excellent customer service has a number of practical effects on your company's performance and how the public views it, which is why it should be given top importance in your organization.

The key to "understanding the role of customer satisfaction in startups" is realizing the importance that customer satisfaction is to the success of your company. How pleased your consumers are with your goods, services, and overall experience is determined by customer satisfaction. It's an important sign of the health of your company and a major factor in growth and success. It's simple to get carried away in the enthusiasm of developing your product or service and obtaining money in the early phases of a business.

Take a step back, though, and realize how important client happiness is in the grand scheme of things. No matter how cutting-edge your product or service may be, without satisfied clients, your startup is going to struggle. Recognizing the significance of putting your customers first and making customer happiness a top priority in all you do requires an understanding of the role of customer satisfaction.

In startups, "the impact of poor customer satisfaction on business success" is the critical factor. Customers are less likely to return and more likely to tell others they are dissatisfied with your goods, services, or overall experience. A reputation for bad customer service will spread, driving away potential clients, resulting in a cycle of diminishing revenue, declining client loyalty, and general harm to your financial line.

A commitment to customer satisfaction, on the other hand, can pay dividends in terms of increased loyalty, repeat business, and positive word of mouth, giving your startup a fighting chance in an increasingly competitive market. So, it's crucial to understand the impact of poor customer satisfaction and take steps to prevent it.

"The benefits of prioritizing customer satisfaction are numerous and should not be overlooked. When you make customer satisfaction a priority in your startup, you'll see the benefits in many areas of your business," said Ms Orode.

First and foremost, happy customers are more likely to become loyal customers. They're more likely to continue using your products or services and recommend you to others, which can lead to increased sales and growth.

Additionally, by prioritizing customer satisfaction, you'll improve the overall customer experience, which can have a positive impact on your reputation and brand image. Happy customers are more likely to leave positive reviews and spread the word about your business, which can attract even more customers.

Another benefit of prioritizing customer satisfaction is that it can help you identify areas where your business needs improvement. By regularly gathering feedback from customers and analyzing their experiences, you'll gain valuable insights into what's working and what's not. This information can then be used to make improvements that will make your customers even happier and improve your business's chances of success.

In short, prioritizing customer satisfaction is a smart business move that can lead to increased sales, improved reputation, and long-term success for your startup.

TANAKA Establishes Production System in China for Fuel Cell Electrode Catalysts

TOKYO, Sep 12, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – TANAKA Kikinzoku Kogyo K.K. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Group CEO: Koichiro Tanaka), which operates an industrial precious metals business as a core company of TANAKA Precious Metals, announced today that it has signed a technical assistance agreement with Chengdu Guangming Paite Precious Metal Co., Ltd., an affiliated company in China, in the area of fuel cell electrode catalyst manufacturing technologies.

Electrode catalysts for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEFCs)

As part of the agreement, production equipment will be installed at the plant of Ya'an Guangming Paite Precious Metal Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Chengdu Guangming Paite Precious Metal, with plans to start full-scale production in the summer of 2024. The companies also plan to start production of fuel cell electrode catalysts for the Chinese market by the end of 2025. As a member of TANAKA and with the leading share of the global market for fuel cell electrode catalysts, TANAKA Kikinzoku Kogyo aims to use this agreement to meet the growing domestic demand for fuel cell electrode catalysts in China.

TANAKA's Fuel Cell Electrode Catalysts

TANAKA's FC Catalyst Development Center, within its Shonan Plant, is currently developing and manufacturing electrode catalysts for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEFCs) and polymer electrolyte water electrolysis (PEWE). The company sells highly active, highly durable platinum catalysts and platinum alloy catalysts for PEFC cathodes[1], highly CO-tolerant platinum alloy catalysts and OER catalysts[2] for PEFC anodes[3], and iridium oxide catalysts for PEWE anodes.

PEFCs are used in applications such as fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and residential-use fuel cells (ENE-FARM), with their use expected to expand in the future to also include buses, trucks, and other commercial vehicles, forklifts and other material handling vehicles, heavy construction machines, robots and other industrial machines, and large stationary equipment. Compact, lightweight, high-output PEFCs employ a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to generate power, which will make them important devices for the global environment of the future.

One major issue facing the full-scale use of fuel cell batteries is the cost of the platinum they use. TANAKA has been researching precious metal catalysts for more than 40 years, resulting in the development of catalysts that use smaller amounts of precious metals while achieving high performance and high durability. By studying new carrier materials and catalyst post-processing methods and producing more active metal species, the company is currently developing catalysts that are even more suitable for use in fuel cells.

Trends in the Global Fuel Cell Market

In China, government policy continues to drive the development of hydrogen energy and FCVs as strategic industries. The Chinese government is implementing a range of support measures to promote research and development and the expanded use of fuel cell battery technologies. It is also driving the development and adoption of FCVs through subsidies, tax incentives, and other efforts. With other measures, including the development of hydrogen supply infrastructure in cities and along major traffic routes, the country's fuel cell market is expected to grow even further going forward.

In Europe and the United States as well, governments are promoting zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs)[4]. In the EU, as part of the Fit for 55 package of climate change measures adopted by the European Union in April 2023, a bill was adopted to require new passenger vehicles and small commercial vehicles to be zero-emission, in principle, from 2035. (The sale of new vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines will only be accepted after 2035 if they use synthetic fuels (e-fuels)[5].) In the US as well, an executive order was issued in 2021 to require 50% of new car sales to be electric by 2030.

In Japan, the Ministry of Economy, Trade, and Industry has been meeting with representatives of the hydrogen supply industry, automobile manufacturers, logistics companies, local governments, and others since September 2022 to discuss the expanded use of hydrogen in mobility. In an interim summary of discussions in July 2023, it announced that the selection of priority areas for early adoption of trucks and buses that use fuel cells to run will be finalized before the end of this year.

TANAKA will continue to focus on research and development while working to achieve stable supplies of fuel cell electrode catalysts, and as the leading company in the area of fuel cell electrode catalysts, it aims to contribute toward the expansion of fuel cell use and realization of a hydrogen society.

[1] Cathodes: Hydrogen-generation electrodes (air poles) where oxygen reduction reactions take place. This assumes that hydrogen-generation electrodes are being used for water electrolysis (PEWE).

[2] OER catalysts: Catalysts that activate oxygen evolution reactions.

[3] Anodes: Oxygen-generation electrodes (fuel poles) where hydrogen oxidation reactions take place. This assumes that hydrogen-generation electrodes are being used for water electrolysis (PEWE).

[4] Zero-emission vehicles: Electric vehicles (EVs) and fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) that emit no carbon dioxide or other greenhouse gases during operation. In the United States, plug-in electric vehicles (PHEVs) are also considered to be ZEVs.

[5] E-fuels: Petroleum-alternative fuels produced in a chemical reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H2).

Palladium One Expands Its Tyko Nickel – Copper District by 8,620 Hectares, Ontario, Canada

TORONTO, ON, Sep 11, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Palladium One Mining Inc. (TSXV: PDM) (OTCQB: NKORF) (FSE: 7N11) (the "Company" or "Palladium One") is pleased to announce the expansion of the Tyko Nickel – Copper District, with the acquisition of the highly prospective "Tyko II Copper – Nickel – PGE" property, located approximately 10 kilometers north of the Tyko I (formerly "Tyko") property, and 15 kilometres east of the town of Manitouwadge, Ontario, Canada.

HIGHLIGHTS

– Property position expanded by 8,620 hectares. The new property ("Tyko II") is located 10 kilometers north of the main Tyko (now referred to as Tyko I) property and has been acquired through a combination of staking and two claim group purchases.

– Exploration potential:
— Historic grab samples suggest a strong potential for copper – nickel – PGE mineralization:
—- 1.17% Cu, 0.73% Ni, 2.4 g/t Pd, 0.2 g/t Pt (Kejimalda Zone)
—- 0.54% Cu, 0.11% Ni, 1.0 g/t Pd, 0.4 g/t Pt (Moshkinabi Zone)
—- 2.46% Cu, 0.22% Ni (Gionet Zone)
—- 6.70% Cu, 0.17% Ni (Faries Lake Zone)
— Multiple untested historic ElectroMagnetic ("EM") anomalies provide developed drill targets.
— Historic exploration has identified multiple copper – nickel – PGE showings which are associated with the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic complex and which share geological similarities to the Tyko I Property.

– Existing exploration drill permits and a network of logging roads allow for near term drilling.

"This property expansion bolsters the Company's nickel – copper strategy in a premiere mining jurisdiction and specifically in a highly prospective, relatively unexplored region, where it now controls 38,130 hectares. Tyko II brings an additional pipeline of drill permitted magmatic copper – nickel sulphide targets. The Tyko II project has many geological similarities to Tyko I with several untested historic EM anomalies. Prior to our high-grade discovery, the Smoke Lake zone also began as a historic untested EM anomaly. Just like Tyko I, Tyko II has seen surprisingly little historic exploration or even government mapping.

"Having completed the majority of the planned 2023 prospecting, mapping and soil sampling program, the Company is on track to begin drill testing new and existing targets in mid-October.

"With $14.5 million of cash on hand as of the end of Q2 the Company is well financed for our planned activities," commented Derrick Weyrauch, President and CEO.

Transaction Details

The Tyko II Property was acquired through a combination of staking (47 claims, totalling 994 hectares) and claim purchases (307 claims totalling 7,627 hectares) from local prospectors.

The claim purchases include aggregate consideration of:

– $100,000 cash,
– 2.3 million common shares of the Company as follows:
— 1.1 million common shares issued at Closing,
— 0.4 million shares issued 4 months from Closing,
— 0.4 million shares issued 8 months from Closing, and
— 0.4 million shares issued 12 months from Closing
– A Net Smelter Return Royalty ("NSR") in respect of 137 claims

Completion of the transaction is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval.

Property Location and Description

The Tyko II Property is located approximately 10 kilometers north of the main Tyko I Property and roughly 15 km east-southeast of the town of Manitouwadge, ON, (Figure 1). The claim block encompasses magnetic anomalies associated with the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex. The property is accessible via a network of all season logging roads.

Exploration History

The Tyko II Property area has seen limited government reconnaissance mapping programs dating as far back as 1932. In 1953 the world class Geco Copper-Zinc mine was discovered in the nearby Manitouwadge greenstone belt, 15 km to the northwest. Early geological mapping and mineral exploration in the area was focused largely on the Manitouwadge greenstone belt, to the north of Moshkinabi Lake, whereas Tyko II lies south of the lake.

The earliest organized exploration program in the Moshkinabi Lake area dates back to 1960's when Falconbridge Nickel Mines Ltd completed EM and Magnetic ("Mag") surveys, including seven reconnaissance drill holes. In the late 1980's Noranda Minerals Inc (Geco Division) ("Noranda") conducted further reconnaissance exploration consisting of 16 diamond drill along a northwest trend east of Faries Lake discovering substantial copper mineralization at the Faries Lake Zone. Noranda subsequently completed a large Digem airborne EM and Mag survey that covered the majority of the Tyko II and the northern half of the Tyko I properties, this EM survey also identified the anomaly which eventually resulted in the discovery of the high-grade Smoke Lake Nickel-Copper Zone on Tyko I, several EM conductors from this historic geophysical survey remain untested on the Tyko II property. Subsequent sporadic exploration south of Moshkinabi Lake identified multiple Cu-Ni-PGE mineral showings within the Faries-Moshkinabi mafic to ultramafic complex (Table 1, Figure 2).

Table 1. Historic Copper-Nickel Showings on the Tyko II Property
https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/180135

Geology Overview

The Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex is located along the southern edge of the Manitouwadge-Hornepayne Greenstone belt ("MHGB") (Figure 2). The Complex is part of the Wawa-Abitibi Terrane and lies at the northern boundary of the Wawa subprovince (Stott, 2011), it is intruded by tonalitic rocks associated with the Black-Pic batholith.

The Ontario Department of Mines was the first to document the occurrence of mafic to ultramafic rocks east of Faries Lake (Milne, 1968). However, it was not until Williams and Breaks (1989, 1990) of the Ontario Geological Survey that reconnaissance mapping outlined the extent of mafic to ultramafic rocks in the vicinity of Faries Lake and south of Moshkinabi Lake that the Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex was defined. The Complex is described as consisting of a layered suite of gabbro, leucogabbro, anorthosite, and peridotite overlain by thin lens of amphibolitized mafic metavolcanic rocks (see Figure 2).

The world class Geco ("Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide") VMS deposit is located along the western margin of the MHGB, approximately 15 km northwest of the Tyko II Property. From 1957 to 1995, the Geco Mine produced over 49.3 Mt of ore grading 1.85% Cu, 3.78% Zn, and 56.2 g/t Ag (Puumala et al., 2020); in addition, the satellite Willroy, Willecho, and Nama Creek Mines entered production of copper-zinc-lead-silver ore at various times during this period. The Tyko II property contains altered volcanics rocks with similarities to those which host the Geco Mine and thus is also prospective for VMS hosted copper – zinc as well and magmatic hosted nickel – copper mineralization.

Future Work

The Faries-Moshkinabi Mafic-Ultramafic Complex is associated with several Cu-Ni-PGE showings, making it a compelling target with similarities to the Company's Tyko I property. An airborne Versatile Time Domain Electromagnetic airborne ("VTEM") survey and soil sampling of historic EM anomalies is planned to commence shortly. A majority of the Tyko II property is also covered by existing drill permits which will allow drill testing by year's end.

HubSpot unveils HubSpot AI and new Sales Hub at INBOUND 2023

SINGAPORE, Sep 7, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – The way we buy and sell is changing. From an unpredictable economy to the AI revolution, there's no shortage of factors affecting the customer journey. And more than ever, the pressure is on businesses to adapt.

As the customer platform for scaling businesses, HubSpot provides the tools needed to connect with customers and grow, no matter the challenge. In 2023 alone, HubSpot has shipped over 200 updates for customer-facing teams across marketing, sales, and service. At this year's INBOUND, HubSpot's annual conference and product showcase, the company is launching some of the most exciting and impactful products to date.

"We are experiencing a transformative shift with generative AI. Customer expectations are changing, and businesses now have the opportunity to leverage AI to drive customer connection at scale." said Yamini Rangan, CEO of HubSpot.

"HubSpot has been thinking deeply about these changes and iterating quickly to help our customers thrive in the age of intelligence. We introduced many powerful new features and capabilities at INBOUND 2023, and I'm excited by our progress in becoming the #1 customer platform for scaling companies."

Introducing HubSpot AI: Platform-wide AI-powered capabilities that help SMEs grow better

At INBOUND 2023, HubSpot unveiled HubSpot AI, a new set of platform-wide AI-powered products and features to help customer-facing teams unlock productivity, harness data for improved performance, and create deeper connections with customers.

HubSpot AI is a robust portfolio of new and existing products and features available globally, including:

– AI Assistants: Generative AI tools to supercharge marketing, sales, and service teams. AI Assistants will work across the entire HubSpot platform to help teams draft content, create images, generate blog ideas, build websites, and develop reports – instantly.

– AI Agents: A set of AI-enhanced tools that help SMEs automate, respond to, and elevate their customer service across live chat and email. The first AI Agents will launch in early 2024.

– AI Insights: Predictive AI features that unlock better analysis and recommendations, like AI-powered forecasting.

– ChatSpot: Currently in public beta, ChatSpot combines the power of ChatGPT with dozens of unique data sources, like a HubSpot customer's Smart CRM, to give growing businesses access to powerful generative AI capabilities. Since launching in March 2023, ChatSpot has seen 80,000 total users with 20,000 prompts created.

"HubSpot's generative AI features have helped me unlock time and better focus on priority tasks," said Colleen McKenna, Demand Generation Manager at Frequence. "Even with my copywriting background, I use the tools to generate new ideas, simplify wording, and work through writer's block. I'm excited to adopt even more of HubSpot's AI-powered tools and free up time that we can spend connecting with Frequence's prospects and customers."

"It's our job at HubSpot to help growing businesses take advantage of new technology without any of the burden," said Andy Pitre, EVP of Product at HubSpot. "With HubSpot AI, we're taking the guesswork out of generative AI and giving all customer-facing teams across sales, marketing, and service the complete toolkit to help them accomplish even more."

New Sales Hub features and expanded relationship with LinkedIn give sales teams an edge

In the past, selling was all about doing more: adding more reps, more activity, more technology. Today, budgets are shrinking, deals take longer to close, and prospects are harder to reach. The default "more is more" playbook no longer works, and reps are feeling the pressure. In fact, 71% of global sales leaders say their teams have to do more with less.*

Being asked to do more with less means productivity has taken a hit. Instead of focusing on connection – which 88% of sales leaders say is the most important part of their jobs – teams are bogged down by administrative tasks. That's a problem considering companies who focus on connection actually grow 5x more than average.** Sales teams that aren't focused on customer connection are leaving growth on the table.

Sales teams need a better way to connect, grow, and win – now and into the future. That's why HubSpot has reimagined its Sales Hub with new capabilities, including:

– Prospecting workspace: A dedicated workspace for sales reps that consolidates prospecting activities into a unified experience, helping them organise their day, stay focused, and identify urgent tasks. By streamlining activities, the prospecting workspace (currently in public beta) will help reps increase efficiency and focus on customer connection.

– Advanced lead management and reporting: Now prospecting reps can better organise, track, and prioritise leads – enabling richer data and unmatched visibility for both sales and marketing teams. With improved clarity, sales leaders and their marketing counterparts can unlock new insights into lead pipeline efficiency and prospecting effectiveness.

— Lead reports, including lead source reports and contact rate reports (currently in public beta), give marketers insight into the impact of their leads and give sales leaders visibility into how their reps are engaging with high-value leads.

— Prospecting activities reports give sales leaders a holistic view of rep outreach effectiveness, including conversion rates and activity metrics.

– Intelligent deal management and forecasting: New AI-powered features enable sales teams to better prioritise efforts and predict outcomes.

— AI Forecasting (currently in private beta) uses HubSpot's predictive AI and historical sales to project future sales. Early testing showed that AI Forecasting helped some teams improve accuracy by up to 95%.

— Deal insights help reps prioritise their deals with ease by providing contextual insights into the health of their pipeline and sales process.

— Deal tags programmatically categorise deals through coloured labels and quick presets, enabling reps to focus on the right deals.

– Seamless scheduling and handoffs: With Sales Hub, no matter where an opportunity originates, the prospect will experience a smooth handoff to the right rep.

— Reps can book meetings on behalf of others, enabling streamlined handoffs between sales development and sales.

— Lead form routing (currently in public beta) ensures website leads are qualified and routed to the right reps, quickly and automatically.

– Expansion of HubSpot's relationship with LinkedIn across marketing & sales: Enabling sellers to be smarter and more efficient in how they prospect, build relationships, and close deals by syncing HubSpot's Smart CRM with LinkedIn Sales Navigator, with a private beta starting later this month. HubSpot Sales Hub and LinkedIn are bringing two critical data sources for sales teams closer together.

"For fast-growing companies like ours, it's important to have visibility into how deals are moving ahead and gauge where you'll be by the end of the quarter or end of year," said Kashish Gupta, Head of Sales and Customer Success at Volopay. "Sales Hub provides a hundred percent of everything I need from an analysis perspective. It gives me direct, actionable insights into how different channels are performing, how specific accounts are performing, and how many accounts have moved to dormant. All of these things are directly correlated to revenue, so this visibility is important."

"With buyer behaviour evolving so rapidly, the old playbook of adding headcount, creating more activities, and implementing point solutions to drive sales no longer delivers," said Dan Bognar, VP & Managing Director, JAPAC at HubSpot. "Sales Hub has been completely reimagined to enhance sales team productivity and foster stronger connections with both prospects and customers. From lead prospecting and reporting to deal management and forecasting, Sales Hub is the solution that sales teams need to drive growth today and in the future.

In addition to the launch of HubSpot AI and new Sales Hub features at INBOUND 2023, HubSpot also shared the following releases:

– Mobile messaging: HubSpot's SMS feature offers marketers an easy, instant, and personalised way to communicate with customers, allowing them to build stronger relationships and improve campaign effectiveness – all from a single platform. Mobile messaging is available to customers with U.S.-based SMS numbers for messaging into the U.S. and Canada, and globally with HubSpot's WhatsApp integration. (https://www.hubspot.com/products/whatsapp-integration)

– New Smart CRM customisations: Customers can now model, configure, and extend data with greater flexibility using HubSpot's Smart CRM, easily adapting HubSpot to better match their unique needs and processes. (https://www.hubspot.com/products/crm/customization)
