I can’t sell to businesses that aren’t participating in,
or understanding how to participate in,
a global international economy.
AI or not.
My Take:
My definition of a Supply Chain is different. It's also what a supercomputer calculates as necessary information during a purchase.
Probably the most confusing part of naming SmarterTariff is also the biggest Business risk, and story, of the next decade.
Grounded in my IR degree and unique professional experience, my definition of a Supply Chain is different than everyone else. It’s also reflected in my products. Why does this matter to every business today?
Not just agents and e-commerce breaking (my invention addresses that). It’s the need to understand what a supercomputer calculates as necessary information during a purchase, a listing, vs. what traditionally is taught and done in business.
DigitalContinuity.ai exists to help American business do just as the name suggests. SmarterTariff is the platform.
View your site or store as I do as an International trade expert, understand that disclosures on UN trafficking visibility or sourcing or funding, to yes, accessibility of the site, all matter. And, they matter for your reputation.
Buffett famously says you can lose that reputation very quickly. For the next generation of search, buying, and international business - where entire continents with billions of people will come online with new tools and new markets - you WILL fail if you do not adapt. SmarterTariff, precisely, was uniquely designed and exists as a platform to help Americans do just that.
It’s worth the $50 a month to stop your business from sinking.
The lesson is going to take longer than that, but as we have seen in the trade war and as small business owners, it is a lesson worth learning.
“Grounded in my IR degree and unique professional experience, my definition of a Supply Chain is different than everyone else. It’s also reflected in my products, being raised by Canadian values, and differentiation in what I do and say.”
— Chris Edwards, Founder
The future of the American economy - and entrepreneur - rests on our ability to adapt to the reality that the world is bigger than us, more connected, and whether AI agent or disabled user, our ability to participate is now as equally at risk as the billions of new market participants from Africa to India have been at risk for decades.
That matters and is historic in urgency.
That is what is at stake. That is also where we have failed.
Your reach is rented. And landlords evict.
One algorithm update. One policy change. One bad quarter for a platform that isn't yours. The audience you spent years building disappears overnight.
beehiiv is what happens when you stop renting and start owning. A list that's yours. Revenue that compounds. Growth tools built in from day one.
30% off your first 3 months with code LIST30. Start building today.
Listen to those of us who have expertise, and if we build something worth patenting, and it affects a $3 trillion industry - My suggestion is: I’m here to help, and SmarterTariff is exactly that and priced for that.
As a dual US and Canadian citizen, I urge my readers, come along for the journey and use tools that were created to help. Not a single thing SmarterTariff (also DigitalContinuity.ai) checks for, is irrelevant. Give it a try. Or buy my a coffee. Either way, we got this! It’s a degree after-all, and Canada is doing better at the moment at adapting. I say let’s do that on the American side or else there won’t be much use for my platform.
At risk: Businesses that routinely failed to recognize, plan for, and routinely scan for risks.
One “Checkout” scan shows you the Supply Chain as an AI Agent or me, an International Relations and Trade / China expert, does. That’s the value prop. That’s the category. That’s what is at risk. $50 / month from an inventor who cares.
