AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Tariff Pressure on SMBs: Canada is bracing for a new round of 50% U.S. tariffs this week, with negotiators still far apart—an outcome businesses warn could mean job losses and more headaches for already-stressed industries. Local Tourism Costs: Cape Coast’s MP is pushing back on high hotel rates, warning that pricey stays could deter visitors and hurt the city’s tourism push. AI for Service Teams: Vight launched AI-powered “Level 2” support for managed service providers, aiming to resolve tougher tickets faster by pulling from PSA systems, knowledge bases, and client conversations. Freight Pricing Signals: Tabi Connect says broker margins fell to 16.9% in July even as spot quote volume rose, suggesting shippers may be getting ready to push back on rates. SMB Tech Marketing Shift: SearchSyft is rolling out a performance-based search model for law firms that targets high-intent searches earlier in the customer journey. SMB Reality Check: Meanwhile Coffee in Herndon is shutting down at month-end, citing rent, taxes, tariffs, and the tough economics of running a small shop. Payments Momentum: The Philippines hit 64.7% digital payments by volume in 2025, driven by interoperability across InstaPay, PESONet, and QR Ph.
