KAE

KAE grew a leading payment provider’s TPV 160% yoy and their transaction count by more than 200%, as they expanded a solution into new international markets. Let’s break down how we did it… ...the truth is, we didn't. Our client did. What we did do, however, was provide them with holistic customer and market intelligence, and strategic recommendations, to make well informed decisions on where their investments were best place to drive adoption. We used KAE’s 7-dimensional GTM framework and 4 winning principles for effective GTM strategy. We de-risked their decision-making and saved them the time, cost and frustration of wasted time and resources. And had some fun along the way. At KAE, your success is our success.

Reflecting on the ever-awesome Consultancy Growth Network (#TCGN) annual summit last week, when leaders and mentors of growing consultancy firms came together to share experiences, perspectives and forge new connections. I really enjoyed this year’s focus on the role that #GenAI can play in the growth trajectory of companies like #KAE. The potential of #GenAI to improve productivity and creativity is still super exciting and happening NOW (whether you like it or not 😉). Three key points that really resonated with me and how we utilise AI at KAE were: 💡 Be purposeful. What is your “why?”. Evaluate and implement AI with purpose in terms of identifying and understanding the problems/pain points you are trying to solve for, whether they be for your client, your business or your employees. Ensure you have properly considered the cost/benefit on investing in the tools you work with. And, where you can get productivity gains using technology, be proactive in upskilling your team in value-added activities that fulfil them professionally and create new opportunities for growth. ✏️ Be structured. Put in place a key policy/framework governing the use of AI internally, being thoughtful not only for its capacity to help innovate, but the known risks around accuracy (GenAI has a complete lack of regard for the truth) and client confidentiality. 😎 Be Human! While generative AI is a highly useful tool, we all know that consulting is a relationship-based business built on trust, empathy, credibility and connection. No doubt, technology will play a crucial role in our ability to serve our clients ever better, but don’t underestimate yourself and your authenticity! If you’d like to understand more about how KAE is using AI responsibly to add value to our business, employees and clients, then feel free to reach out for a chat! 😊
