May 19, 2026 ยท From the archive, written in the Professor's voice before our October 2026 redesign from sbecouncil.org

What happened

The Small Business and Entrepreneurship Council survey found that 65 percent of small businesses are using or planning to adopt pricing tools. Among users 97 percent reported positive revenue impacts from better price optimization. 94 percent of small business owners stated pricing tools improved their operations.

Why it matters

This teaches readers that pricing optimization tools represent a high adoption and high success category within AI. It changes thinking from general AI exploration to focusing on specific functions like dynamic pricing that already show strong outcomes. The percentages encourage owners to prioritize tools with documented user success rates.
