Plan ahead for the rest of the year and don’t let your business miss out on trends that could have potentially benefited you. Here are 5 things your business really should consider in 2016:

This makes imports from overseas more expensive for your business. However, if you’re an export business you can make the most of the low Australian dollar and ideal export-marketing conditions.

4. There are more tourists than ever
The Australian tourism sector is booming and even the number of Chinese tourists visiting Australia in a 12-month period hitting 1 million for the first time in 2015. Direct tourism gross value added increased by 3.4% to $39.9 billion with businesses in the accommodation, hospitality and retail sectors in a very ideal position.
5. New technologies are giving us even more data on our businesses
The trend of businesses doing more with their data will continue through 2016 with the spread of self-service analytics and adoption of the cloud and Hadoop. The technology is at your fingertips for more data is to be produced and therefore analyse your business.
