Impact of the 25% Tariff on Mexico: The Good & The Bad The incoming U.S. administration has announced it plans to impose a 25% tariff on Mexican products, potentially shaking up export costs and trade relations. Companies relying on these supply chains might feel the pressure. But here's the silver lining: if tariffs are imposed, the Mexican Currency (the Peso) will go down in value, making products and services from Mexico less expensive when paid in US Dollars. Each time the exchange rate goes "down" from a Mexican perspective, its services become more competitive.  From tech to consulting, hiring Mexican talent remains an appealing and strategic choice for international companies.  Mexican talent delivers quality, innovation, and value, making it a reliable option even amidst economic challenges.  Now might be the ideal time to explore Mexican talent and services to enhance cost-benefit relationships and build stronger strategic partnerships. Could this be the tipping point for companies who have not explored nearshoring options yet? #Nearshore #NearshoreStaffing #RemoteServices #VA #VirtualAssistant #Mexico #REMOTEIntelligence Source: https://lnkd.in/gSNkGkrs l

The company Jorge and I co-founded, Abacum, just wrapped up an incredible Q3. I want to share my 3 biggest wins and learnings from the past 3 months: Wins: 1. We’ve more than 2x our growth velocity QoQ in Q2 and also Q3. The product is dope. We’re now operating on a whole new level. 2. We signed impressive logos like Strava, Hawk-Eye Innovations Ltd, Cortex, Ursa Major, Mangopay, join.com, and many more. These highly sophisticated finance teams deal with high business complexity in a fast-moving market. I cannot be prouder that Abacum has become their long-term partner. 3. We’ve continued heavily investing in our product, shipping a number of AI-driven features like AI Forecasting and AI Classifiers. We've leveraged ML in the product since our MVP years ago. Now, AI is deeply embedded in what we’re building, and we’re excited about where it’s headed. Learnings: 1. We’ve learned that missing small details can lead to underperformance. Going forward, we’re focusing on tightening up execution at every level and obsessing over details. 2. This year, we’ve had a good number of key teammates become parents. With so many key people on leave it’s been all hands on deck. Basically none of us were sleeping during this time. Not the new parents and not the rest of us. My co-founder Jorge and I have 3 children each. We are proud to see our teammates grow their families and have fulfilling lives amidst our relentless commitment to better serve our customers. 3. We’re getting serious about infosec and legal measures, making sure that as we grow, our security is top-tier and ready to scale with us. This quarter has been a wild ride, I'm thrilled about what's coming next!

It's time to take that academic step up, or back, and understand the fundamentals of AI. A great way to personally explore AI is to use it on your own, it's the best way to learn. My go to is Grok from X using it for research or summarizing work documentation. Ron does a nice job of separating AI by Ability & Utility - I'd add Strategic & Tactical to that. I worked with machine learning long ago via Predictive Analytics and that's now evolved into AI. As we push forward in Banking finding opportunities to operate the Institution better and, improve Customer Service (including Sales), we also need to continually refine the quality of output (performance). AI can and will be as revolutionary as Core Banking. Similar to Core Banking, value was realized and gained along a continuum. AI is poised to do the same. #AI #CBiLink #Strategy #Innovation

Check this out: One of Mexico's leading financial dailies included an article informing that according to the EnBan survey conducted by Banxico (Bank of Mexico) , both large corporations and SMEs are investing substantially in infrastructure, working capital, and machinery - This is also a unique opportunity for the staffing industry. And get this, banks are totally backing this trend. They're keeping credit approval conditions steady for nearshoring, showing they're all in on this economic shift. So, what's this all mean? Opportunities are exploding! As a founder in the staffing industry, I'm delighted to see this clear sign that Mexico is booming. The job market is buzzing, and talent is in high demand. #Nearshore #NearshoreStaffing #MexicoNews https://lnkd.in/gytQVyde
