Every quarter, we pay close attention to what the Big Tech players — Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Microsoft (AGFAM), plus Shopify and others — have to say about the state of digital. Their earnings calls often reveal key digital trends that we all need to know about if we’re going to compete. And, obviously, the last year in particular has revealed more than most.

So, what is the current state of digital? What do Apple and Google and Facebook and Amazon and all the rest tell us about the shift to digital? Was 2020 a one-time event? Or is there a deeper shift going on? What do their messages to the market tell us about the state of the industry? And, most importantly, what do they reveal about how you can compete with these digital leaders?

This episode of Thinks Out Loud looks at what each of these companies told us about the last quarter and what that means for your business. We examine key trends that their public statements tell us about customers and competition. And we break down how you can use this information to grow your business in Q4… and beyond.
