How can businesses navigate the delicate balance between leveraging video surveillance for enhanced security and operational efficiency while ensuring the privacy and rights of individuals are respected? The inaugural episode of iQTalk, hosted by Gabrielle Bejarano, tackles these pressing questions with insights from John Donnelly III, the CRO of DTiQ, and Marc Litz, CEO of DTiQ. They share their expert perspectives on the evolution of video surveillance, ethical considerations, and the transformative impact of integrating technology with traditional surveillance methods to drive business growth and operational excellence.

"The reality is that you know, I think what we want to highlight is that the combination of surveillance and how it's evolved over the years to what it is today, along with ingesting data from other systems that our customers use, it goes beyond just what people think of as, you know, kind of that negative connotation of surveillance. It's using video and data to help you run a business and an operation at scale and help you make better business decisions," Donnelly said.

"What we've been seeing, especially post-COVID with the, I shouldn't even say the evolution of drive-thru, drive-thru has always been here, it's just it's a lot of the brands are doubling down on drive-thru now," Litz said. They're looking at how to get more throughput, whether it's inside the store or whether it's at the drive-thru."

These insights underscore the potential of video surveillance technology to enhance security and foster operational improvements and customer service excellence, marking a significant shift in the perception and application of surveillance technologies in the business world.

PepsiCo made crunch the selling point of its lower-salt Doritos in Europe

PepsiCo made crunch the selling point of its lower-salt Doritos in Europe

Compared with the recipe it replaced, the new UK Doritos recipe contained up to 18% less salt and 14% less total fat, and PepsiCo made enhanced crunch its selling point. For food manufacturers, the method matters most: choose the reformulation shoppers can taste, and test repeat purchase and factory consistency before rolling out.

  • 01Doritos took salt and fat out and gave shoppers a crunch they could hear, a sensible bet when 88% of Americans say taste shapes what they buy and only 56% say the same of healthfulness.
  • 02PepsiCo chose the crunch route while several technical paths to the same sodium and saturated fat targets were still open, so R&D and marketing were aiming at one target before the recipe was locked.
  • 03Moving a UK product out of the HFSS classification can reopen prominent retail placement, so a reformulation can pay off on the shelf as well as on the nutrition panel.
