Best Reading of the Day - Entry 0027 Mobile Payments

Two entries today in the "Best Reading" category.

I find Karen Webster to be quite well informed in the arena of payments generally and this entry is a good one.

http://www.pymnts.com/commentary/six-forces-that-should-shape-your-2014-payments-plans/

Here is a short bit from her entry, emphasis added by me:

"...this isn’t payments as usual anymore and even payments the way everyone thought it would be even two or three years ago. There are six forces that will fundamentally reshape the way this sector operates over the next five to 10 years. You can bet all of the soft shell crabs in Maryland and salt water taffy at the Jersey Shore that these six forces will impact each and every player in this space in some way. And, there are only two outcomes: you can lead the creative destruction that these forces imply, or sit back and be the one who is creatively destroyed."

Are you going to be a leader or a follower?  Is following really even an option?

Happy reading,

J.W. Gant
