The Sleeper Awakes by H. G. Wells, is part of the HackerNoon Books Series. You can jump to any chapter in this book here . THREE DAYS THREE DAYS Lincoln awaited Graham in an apartment beneath the flying stages. He seemed curious to learn all that had happened, pleased to hear of the extraordinary delight and interest which Graham took in flying. Graham was in a mood of enthusiasm. “I must learn to fly,” he cried. “I must master that. I pity all poor souls who have died without this opportunity. The sweet swift air! It is the most wonderful experience in the world.” “You will find our new times full of wonderful experiences,” said Lincoln. “I do not know what you will care to do now. We have music that may seem novel.” “For the present,” said Graham, “flying holds me. Let me learn more of that. Your aeronaut was saying there is some trades union objection to one’s learning.” “There is, I believe,” said Lincoln. “But for you—! If you would like to occupy yourself with that, we can make you a sworn aeronaut to-morrow.” Graham expressed his wishes vividly and talked of his sensations for a while. “And as for affairs,” he asked abruptly. “How are things going on?” Lincoln waved affairs aside. “Ostrog will tell you that to-morrow,” he said. “Everything is settling down. The Revolution accomplishes itself all over the world. Friction is inevitable here and there, of course; but your rule is assured. You may rest secure with things in Ostrog’s hands.” “Would it be possible for me to be made a sworn aeronaut, as you call it, forthwith—before I sleep?” said Graham, pacing. “Then I could be at it the very first thing to-morrow again....” “It would be possible,” said Lincoln thoughtfully. “Quite possible. Indeed, it shall be done.” He laughed. “I came prepared to suggest amusements, but you have found one for yourself. I will telephone to the aeronautical offices from here and we will return to your apartments in the Wind-Vane Control. By the time you have dined the aeronauts will be able to come. You don’t think that after you have dined you might prefer—?” He paused. “Yes,” said Graham. “We had prepared a show of dancers—they have been brought from the Capri theatre.” “I hate ballets,” said Graham, shortly. “Always did. That other—. That’s not what I want to see. We had dancers in the old days. For the matter of that, they had them in ancient Egypt. But flying—” “True,” said Lincoln. “Though our dancers—” “They can afford to wait,” said Graham; “they can afford to wait. I know. I’m not a Latin. There’s questions I want to ask some expert—about your machinery. I’m keen. I want no distractions.” “You have the world to choose from,” said Lincoln; “whatever you want is yours.” Asano appeared, and under the escort of a strong guard they returned through the city streets to Graham’s apartments. Far larger crowds had assembled to witness his return than his departure had gathered, and the shouts and cheering of these masses of people sometimes drowned Lincoln’s answers to the endless questions Graham’s aerial journey had suggested. At first Graham had acknowledged the cheering and cries of the crowd by bows and gestures, but Lincoln warned him that such a recognition would be considered incorrect behaviour. Graham, already a little wearied by rhythmic civilities, ignored his subjects for the remainder of his public progress. Directly they arrived at his apartments Asano departed in search of kinematographic renderings of machinery in motion, and Lincoln despatched Graham’s commands for models of machines and small machines to illustrate the various mechanical advances of the last two centuries. The little group of appliances for telegraphic communication attracted the Master so strongly that his delightfully prepared dinner, served by a number of charmingly dexterous girls, waited for a space. The habit of smoking had almost ceased from the face of the earth, but when he expressed a wish for that indulgence, enquiries were made and some excellent cigars were discovered in Florida, and sent to him by pneumatic despatch while the dinner was still in progress. Afterwards came the aeronauts, and a feast of ingenious wonders in the hands of a latter-day engineer. For the time, at any rate, the neat dexterity of counting and numbering machines, building machines, spinning engines, patent doorways, explosive motors, grain and water elevators, slaughter-house machines and harvesting appliances, was more fascinating to Graham than any bayadhre. “We were savages,” was his refrain, “we were savages. We were in the stone age—compared with this.... And what else have you?” There came also practical psychologists with some very interesting developments in the art of hypnotism. The names of Milne Bramwell, Fechner, Liebault, William James, Myers and Gurney, he found, bore a value now that would have astonished their contemporaries. Several practical applications of psychology were now in general use; it had largely superseded drugs, antiseptics and anesthetics in medicine; was employed by almost all who had any need of mental concentration. A real enlargement of human faculty seemed to have been effected in this direction. The feats of “calculating boys,” the wonders, as Graham had been wont to regard them, of mesmerisers, were now within the range of anyone who could afford the services of a skilled hypnotist. Long ago the old examination methods in education had been destroyed by these expedients. Instead of years of study, candidates had substituted a few weeks of trances, and during the trances expert coaches had simply to repeat all the points necessary for adequate answering, adding a suggestion of the post-hypnotic recollection of these points. In process mathematics particularly, this aid had been of singular service, and it was now invariably invoked by such players of chess and games of manual dexterity as were still to be found. In fact, all operations conducted under finite rules, of a quasi-mechanical sort that is, were now systematically relieved from the wanderings of imagination and emotion, and brought to an unexampled pitch of accuracy. Little children of the labouring classes, so soon as they were of sufficient age to be hypnotised, were thus converted into beautifully punctual and trustworthy machine minders, and released forthwith from the long, long thoughts of youth. Aeronautical pupils, who gave way to giddiness, could be relieved from their imaginary terrors. In every street were hypnotists ready to print permanent memories upon the mind. If anyone desired to remember a name, a series of numbers, a song or a speech, it could be done by this method, and conversely memories could be effaced, habits removed, and desires eradicated—a sort of psychic surgery was, in fact, in general use. Indignities, humbling experiences, were thus forgotten, widows would obliterate their previous husbands, angry lovers release themselves from their slavery. To graft desires, however, was still impossible, and the facts of thought transference were yet unsystematised. The psychologists illustrated their expositions with some astounding experiments in mnemonics made through the agency of a troupe of pale-faced children in blue. Graham, like most of the people of his former time, distrusted the hypnotist, or he might then and there have eased his mind of many painful preoccupations. But in spite of Lincoln’s assurances he held to the old theory that to be hypnotised was in some way the surrender of his personality, the abdication of his will. At the banquet of wonderful experiences that was beginning, he wanted very keenly to remain absolutely himself. The next day, and another day, and yet another day passed in such interests as these. Each day Graham spent many hours in the glorious entertainment of flying. On the third, he soared across middle France, and within sight of the snow-clad Alps. These vigorous exercises gave him restful sleep; he recovered almost wholly from the spiritless anemia of his first awakening. And whenever he was not in the air, and awake, Lincoln was assiduous in the cause of his amusement; all that was novel and curious in contemporary invention was brought to him, until at last his appetite for novelty was well-nigh glutted. One might fill a dozen inconsecutive volumes with the strange things they exhibited. Each afternoon he held his court for an hour or so. He found his interest in his contemporaries becoming personal and intimate. At first he had been alert chiefly for unfamiliarity and peculiarity; any foppishness in their dress, any discordance with his preconceptions of nobility in their status and manners had jarred upon him, and it was remarkable to him how soon that strangeness and the faint hostility that arose from it, disappeared; how soon he came to appreciate the true perspective of his position, and see the old Victorian days remote and quaint. He found himself particularly amused by the red-haired daughter of the Manager of the European Piggeries. On the second day after dinner he made the acquaintance of a latter-day dancing girl, and found her an astonishing artist. And after that, more hypnotic wonders. On the third day Lincoln was moved to suggest that the Master should repair to a Pleasure City, but this Graham declined, nor would he accept the services of the hypnotists in his aeronautical experiments. The link of locality held him to London; he found a delight in topographical identifications that he would have missed abroad. “Here—or a hundred feet below here,” he could say, “I used to eat my midday cutlets during my London University days. Underneath here was Waterloo and the tiresome hunt for confusing trains. Often have I stood waiting down there, bag in hand, and stared up into the sky above the forest of signals, little thinking I should walk some day a hundred yards in the air. And now in that very sky that was once a grey smoke canopy, I circle in a monoplane.” During those three days Graham was so occupied with these distractions that the vast political movements in progress outside his quarters had but a small share of his attention. Those about him told him little. Daily came Ostrog, the Boss, his Grand Vizier, his mayor of the palace, to report in vague terms the steady establishment of his rule; “a little trouble” soon to be settled in this city, “a slight disturbance” in that. The song of the social revolt came to him no more; he never learned that it had been forbidden in the municipal limits; and all the great emotions of the crow’s nest slumbered in his mind. But on the second and third of the three days he found himself, in spite of his interest in the daughter of the Pig Manager, or it may be by reason of the thoughts her conversation suggested, remembering the girl Helen Wotton, who had spoken to him so oddly at the Wind-Vane Keeper’s gathering. The impression, she had made was a deep one, albeit the incessant surprise of novel circumstances had kept him from brooding upon it for a space. But now her memory was coming to its own. He wondered what she had meant by those broken half-forgotten sentences; the picture of her eyes and the earnest passion of her face became more vivid as his mechanical interests faded. Her slender beauty came compellingly between him and certain immediate temptations of ignoble passion. But he did not see her again until three full days were past.

THREE DAYS

A few weeks ago, published its yearly global survey results about how people from more than 150 countries worldwide evaluated their lives. The full report can be found (page 22). the World Happiness Report here What is the methodology for ranking countries based on their happiness? The polling company Gallup conducts interviews with hundreds of thousands of people across the nations included in the report. People assess their own happiness using a scale from 1 to 10, responding to questions such as if they smiled, laughed or experienced enjoyment the previous day. (either 0 or 1): “If you were in trouble, do you have relatives or friends you can count on to help you whenever you need them, or not?”, “Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with your freedom to choose what you do with your life?” or “Have you donated money to a charity in the past month?” Other questions are binary To measure trustworthiness, the survey also includes the so-called “wallet question” (if you lose your wallet containing $200, how likely a neighbor, a police officer, or a stranger would return your wallet). To quote from : the report To return a wallet requires a level of benevolence extending far beyond basic trustworthiness, since the finder has to go out of their way, often at considerable effort, to do a good turn for someone else. It is no surprise that people are happier if they live in a community where others stand ready to help. Knowing that others are acting in such a way has been shown in experimental studies to encourage others to do good turns, making them even happier. Then, the World Happiness Report processes survey data, as well as economic and social data. Six main criteria determine the happiness index of a country: gross domestic product per capita (data available from ), healthy life expectancy (data available from ), social support, freedom to make one’s life choices, generosity of the general population, and perceptions of corruption levels (data from Gallup surveys). Some variables such as unemployment or inequality are not considered because the World Bank the World Health Organisation there is no available data for the entire sample of countries. Each country from the survey is compared to a hypothetical country, Dystopia, used as a regression benchmark, which scores the lowest national averages for each of the six key variables. These reports are not without , as they are based on subjective assessments from people, but they prove helpful if we compare the happiness index for the same country over the years, as in this case, all the variable factors stay the same. critics And this brings us to Finland, a country experiencing harsh climatic conditions, caught for centuries between the rule of Sweden and Russia, enduring between Whites, the conservative-based senate and Reds, the socialists, in 1918 (its first months of independence), and against the Soviet Union in 1939 and 1941, respectively. The Finns invented , a reference to Vyacheslav Molotov, one of the principal architects of the Molotov – Ribbentrop Pact. During the Winter War, in response to the Soviet propaganda that the bombing missions over Finland were humanitarian food deliveries for starving people, the Finns developed a firebomb to attack the Soviet tanks (the Molotov cocktail), “a drink to go with his [Molotov’s] food parcels”. a civil war the Winter War the Continuation War the Molotov cocktail Yet, in 2022, Finland was crowned the world’s happiest country for the fifth year in a row. Jukka Lindstrom, a writer and standup comedian, declared in 2021: to New York Times “Four times [imagine what he would say about five times in a row] is too much… The weather is like the worst day in London, every day,” he said. “There’s definitely something in our history that makes us have this kind of low self-esteem as a nation, always feeling like an underdog.” And so, how did Finns build a happy country? Looking back over their history, we learn about , one of the most significant figures of the twentieth century. He also led the Whites in successfully suppressing the Reds in the Finnish Civil War. Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim Mannerheim regarded child welfare as a sterling investment in Finland’s future, not only in the creation of a healthy population, but in the healing of old wounds between the Reds and Whites. Jonathan Clements, Mannerheim: President, Soldier, Spy In 1920, two years after the Finnish Civil war, the was established (Mannerheim initially opposed that the league be given his name, but he conceded to the unanimous wish of the other participants). Mannerheim League for Child Welfare The goal of the work should be that every single child in Finland, from birth and throughout his or her growth period, receives a rightful share of the affection and care that alone can lay the foundation for the development of young people into good and useful citizens. C.G.E. Mannerheim To prevent infant mortality, in 1937, the league started distributing a basket with baby supplies (blankets, crib sheets, diapers, etc.) to low-income mothers. To get the basket, the mothers had to apply for healthcare during pregnancy. In 1949, the maternity allowance became available to all mothers. And nowadays, the Finnish maternity package is an iconic social innovation. of the maternity package contains 43 different products, ranging from a snowsuit, booties, mittens, sleeping bag, blanket, clothes in gender-neutral colours, the first book, toys, to personal care items (usual stuff for babies such as thermometer, hairbrush, toothbrush, nail scissors). The package also includes nipple cream, bra pads, sanity towels, and condoms. All items are included in a box that can be used as the baby’s first crib. No bottles, formula, nappies, or soothers are included. The 2022 edition Implementing such a system (giving a maternity box to all mothers, not only low-income families) benefits the whole society. Otherwise, higher-income households would believe that the maternity package is just another welfare form coming out of their taxes. Lower-income families that would barely cross the income line and not get the box might become frustrated. Allowing all families to have access to the same maternity package creates the narrative that all children should start from the same point in life, leading to a relatively egalitarian Finnish society. And then this package is a thread linking generations as all grandparents, parents, and children would have shared the same concept of sleeping in a box and getting their first baby items from the government. This social reform is low-hanging fruit, as the total maternity grant program costs for a country of roughly 5.5 million people, but with tremendous social benefits, pouring through all levels of society. around 10.3 million euros per year Maternity packages trials have been conducted in , most notably in Scotland, which . other countries hands maternity boxes to all mothers Another social reform is how Finland approaches maternity/paternity leave. , all parents will get the same parental leave to allow fathers to spend more time with their babies. , pregnant women would benefit from an extra month’s allowance, and single parents would use both allowances. Starting this year Each parent would receive 6.6 months’ leave Important to mention that prenatal and perinatal care is free, like all health services in Finland. And then we have the famous Finnish education system, which is , consistently scoring top results in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA). among the best in the world Admittedly, there are some worries about the latest Finnish PISA results. has consistently been one of the highest in the participating countries (52 points in favour of girls versus boys, compared with an average of 30 points in ). The gender gap in reading and science literacy results OECD countries A major societal equalizer is that all Finnish pupils get a free hot lunch every day at school. This practice started in the ’40s, alongside the maternity package for all mothers. People in Finland are generally proud of the country’s long history of providing free school meals. A good lunch is more than nutrition. It is something that gives pleasure, relaxes, refreshes, maintains the ability to work and helps children grow healthy. A good school meal is seen as an investment in the future. The Finnish National Agency for Education Also, children from different backgrounds sharing the same meals strengthen equal opportunities, as nobody feels ashamed of their lunch package. When babies are dressed the same, then when they grow up, they eat the same meals and learn in the same schools ( ), it becomes easier to build a relatively egalitarian society. Finland has few private schools A fascinating article about Finnish education myths and facts can be read . here An insight into Finnish education and how heavily Finland relies on education and knowledge is made by Jonathan Clements: Speaking from first-hand experience, a lot of the success of the Finnish education system is down to the simple fact that it is chock full of Finns, gently cherished by a social security system that ensures square meals for all and a good home environment. Finnish education also happily calves off the more practically-minded into vocational training in their teens, creating a ready army of cooks, beauticians, hair-dressers, plumbers, carpenters and electricians. This generates massive demand for painters, decorators, builders, child-minders and cleaners, finding ample employment for many vocational school graduates, but also ensuring that their work is run through the system and taxed. Not only is Finland mercifully short on cowboy builders, but most homes are suitably ready to brave the next harsh winter. In one of many beautifully simple and palpably beneficial incentives in Finnish law, all households are eligible for an annual tax break for home improvement and domestic services, as long as the money is spent on accredited labourers. An Armchair Traveller’s History of Finland Or a thought about the Finnish railways that tells a whole story about the Finnish mindset to optimize and ensure equal resources for everyone: To hear some Finns talk about their railway system, you would be forgiven for thinking it was a third-world shambles, but they have clearly never been to Britain. Finnish trains are a paradise of comfort and efficiency, and distinguished by some neat touches like free travel for any children accompanied by an adult (including teenagers, hence reducing the numbers of unaccompanied louts), children’s carriages with their own play rooms, and free travel for any off-duty police who wear their uniforms, ensuring a little bit of bonus security. An Armchair Traveller’s History of Finland Other numerous aspects can be told about what makes Finland a happy country: impressive landscape and nature, which makes for outdoor activities, the general feeling of safety ( ), a general mindset of not trying to keep up with the Joneses (“ “, an old Finnish saying that means “only ugly people need to dress up” – a tidbit about the Finnish mentality and how they regarded fashion as non-essential. Also, remember the Finnish weather). many children go to school and back on their own Vain rumat ne vaatteilla koreilee Perhaps happiness is not about wishing for the moon but a sense of keeping to yourself and finding contentment in the essentials. Janne Berliini, 49, said he was happy enough. “I have work,” he said. “The basic things are in order.” New York Times article Communal saunas create another equalizing effect rippling through society, as everyone strips down not just of clothes but also any sign of high status. Maybe Finns consider themselves happy because of antidepressants, as Finland is . Perhaps. Or perhaps high antidepressant consumption is either related to a proficient health service around mental issues or to the long dark months with sparse sunlight. one of the top European countries regarding antidepressants In a future article, I will talk about or , another Finnish social innovation about inexpensive adult education centres. kansalaisopisto työväenopisto Of course, as with any country, . But for a country that has such as “ ” (the pessimist will never be disappointed) or “ ” (happiness will always end in tears), it is a magnificent feat to achieve the status of world’s happiest country by building a democratic, egalitarian, well-functioning, and highly-educated society with low levels of corruption. Finland surely has its problems proverbs pessimistic ei koskaan pety itku pitkästä ilosta After all, in the words of anthropologist Margaret Mead: Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.

Surviving Crypto Winter — Part Three: — Why Privacy Coins Will Rule the Next Bull Run

Global Tech Battles In order for China to eclipse the West, it has to uplift the lives of billions while keeping industry moving at a breakneck pace. My current read: They will succeed. TLDR: While Western Europe and America struggle with societal divides, China is focusing 1.4 billion citizens on the future using incentives, social media, artificial intelligence, and the most sophisticated surveillance network in the world. Who will be America’s emotional support animal? Since the election of Donald Trump, Americans find themselves in a daily intellectual and moral crisis. The number of mainstream social justice movements has exploded, each with hundreds of facets. The exponential multiplication of moral outcry is thanks to our own invention: social media. Reliance on the rapid spread of information creates an environment where she or he who gets the most attention wins. And thanks to that dynamic, the opportunities — and incentives — for attention grabs are boundless. All one has to do is get very good at delivering pithy, in-the-moment content at the right time to create a viral sensation. Americans now seem to be best at simultaneously creating and reporting on our own angst. We’ve gotten so good at it that angering each other rivals anything else we produce as a percent of domestic mind share. If there’s any good news, it’s that we are getting very good at sparking emotional response with social networks to further moral imperatives. The bad news? Seemingly unsolvable polarization around political stance, gender equality, race equality, and election tampering has distracted us from innovation, our historic number one export. Western Europe tries to be progressive and egalitarian, with mixed results Along a similar spectrum, the EU has implemented General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This stringent set of privacy laws is designed to simultaneously protect citizens from intrusive data collection and serve a shot across the bow of Silicon Valley. The message? It’s not OK to make money off of EU citizens personal information without their consent. At it’s core, GDPR is patently anti-innovation, and it has little to do with what society wants or needs. The argument that data storage leads to invasive behaviors runs counter to the creation of the internet itself. In the EU and the United States, issues like privacy and political interference have become a desperate land grab where overbearing government goals happen to align with societal outrage over broken expectations (Brexit and Trump to name two). Interest in privacy and regulation of social media over time. — The Economist Regulations like GDPR serve no one in the West, and may in fact lead to a lack of transparency in the near future. Google mere days before GDPR went into effect. Since then, publishers have felt the burn of reduced monetization in an already constrained environment. famously announced stringent publisher guidelines Without a proper source of income, no for profit company can survive. And with less meaningful or sustainable income, journalists have been reduced to pathetic Search Engine Optimization writers and tweet minders, hoping to capture or create societal outrage for clicks. After all, who in the future will pay for intelligent journalists to work on important stories when we can simply turn on Twitter and satisfy our need to be outraged? While the West struggles with intellectualism, China moves forward It’s a long-winded way of bringing me to the point: China is coming up — fast. In my experience the West tends to take a backward view of China. That is to say, we think of China as it was 10–20 years ago, with a dose of added media sensationalism. Crowded, open sewer streets, choking pollution, and children laboring in unsafe factories are poignant images that come to mind. A typical manufacturing facility in the outskirts of Shenzhen, China. Credit: lonelybrand An American colleague of mine recently asked if the Chinese struck me as, “Desperate, hungry, and smart?” I told him to scratch out the desperation and he’s starting to get the right idea. The problems of China from even a few years ago are being solved at a rapid pace. Thanks to a central government with a unified message, everybody goes along with the plan. And as these problems get solved, the Chinese desire for interaction with the West diminishes. Here are just a few of the “first world” achievements to which China has laid claim in the last several years: Since 2015, China has spent more on clean energy systems including solar, wind, and hydroelectric power than America and the EU combined. — The Economist China now sells more electric vehicles than the rest of the world combined, most of which are bought by it’s own citizens. — Forbes China now exports cooked chicken and duck to the United States, under the same quality standards required by domestic farms. — The Washington Post 73% of Chinese citizens feel they are free to share their opinions on social media with no repercussions, compared to 43% of Americans. — PodSquad The majority of these achievements are due to a central government bent on making China top global power in the next thirty years. And that central government is led, mostly, by one man. the Xi Jinping is a polarizing figure. As General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, President of the People’s Republic of China, and Chairman of the Central Military Commission he enjoys unchecked rule. It’s easy for the West to imagine him an evil dictator in the process of creating a new, self-serving dynasty a la Kim Il-sung. An organic garden in unused factory space in Shenzhen, China.

Now elected official for life, he must produce an overall increase in citizens’ quality of life to maintain order and economic momentum. To say it another way, Xi Jinping is spinning a of plates, and if even one falls, his reign will be short lived. lot To keep those plates spinning, he needs to control a very large geography and nearly a fifth of the world’s population. Hardware software is increasingly concepted, engineered, and made in China. The city of Shenzhen and the surrounding area is often called China’s Silicon Valley, and it’s even starting to look the part. and Xi Jinping is putting this tech breadbasket to work. Beginning in the next year, a country-wide network of surveillance dubbed the Social Credit System will be activated. The goal? Hack the minds of 1.4 billion people to police themselves and each other around the goals of the Party. Think of the Social Credit System as a giant Stanford Prison Experiment run by AI. At it’s core, the Social Scoring system is an algorithm. In the United States we might imagine that nagging Experian or TransUnion score. Each Chinese citizen will receive a score based on many factors. But unlike the systems we know in the West, the Social Scoring System will compute hundreds, if not thousands, of data points. Everything from where citizens travel to the food they consume and the friends they keep will contribute to their score. This always-on central government monitoring ties into the financial and transactional records of every company in China. It’s tentacles reach into every state approved social network, email, and mobile device microphone. It also utilizes the most sophisticated CCTV camera system in the world, complete with facial recognition and object identification. Each citizen can view his or her score in real time, and watch as daily actions impact the result. Paying bills and taxes will be important, but so will getting to work on time and avoiding excess vice. Downtown Shenzhen, China. Credit: lonelybrand If the Social Scoring System works, one can imagine the results. An entire population of individuals moving in the same direction, creating a rising tide of wealth as they do so. And while many people in China are wary of the new Social Scoring System, most are looking to the future. A high score can mean open global travel, access to consumer credit, and permissions previously enjoyed exclusively by Party officials. A low score can mean social isolation, government restrictions, and career destruction. In theory, if you land in a dark place it’s because you put yourself there. In practice, we all know that algorithms are far from perfect. Macroeconomic progress requires sacrifice — be it personal, societal, or psychological The greater the sacrifice, the faster the pace of progress. And in the growing societal divides embroiling the West, nobody seems to be willing to come to the negotiating table. But even if we can predict a future where the West is obsolete, can we alter our current course? Perhaps this time our fiercely individualistic and innovative society has hamstrung itself. Perhaps social media is best used as a means of control or not at all. And in the West, nobody seems to be at the helm.

China is Coming, and the West Should be Very Afraid

Be profitable from the first minute with dynamic pricing adapted to each market One of the great challenges for an eCommerce business that wants to launch itself abroad is to get their pricing strategy right. If you’re immersed in this expansion process, you’re definitely considering what the surest way to maintain your sale revenue in each market would be. Dynamic pricing techniques are the key to exploiting each sales opportunity regardless of where it occurs. In this article, we’re going to look at the technology used in dynamic pricing and how to make the most of it. Internationalise your eCommerce business with prices that make you sell Dynamic pricing strategies are focused on adjusting the price for each product according to the market, supply, and demand. Their main objective is to adapt themselves at all times to find the best sales opportunities with the maximum profits for the eCommerce business. The world’s leading online stores, including marketplaces and other sales platforms, already use dynamic pricing techniques so as not to miss out on a single opportunity and to get the best return from each transaction. It opens a window to the competitiveness of all eCommerce businesses with respect to the different actors selling the same products. If giants like Amazon, Alibaba, and airlines use it, how could it not be the solution you need to internationalise your eCommerce business? If we were to talk about the advantages that dynamic pricing implies for the internationalisation of an eCommerce business, we should focus primarily on these three: Adaptation to the real market: a dynamic pricing strategy allows an eCommerce business to move in the same arena as its competitors. After performing benchmarking, it’s as easy as identifying the competition that you want to take as a reference point and put the machine to work to start fighting them, one on one. A secure profit margin: a good dynamic pricing strategy is one that allows the online store to maintain its profit margin with each price fluctuation. The algorithm that governs the strategy has the minimums established to ensure that the prices set always represent a certain percentage of profits for the store. The discovery of new opportunities: establishing a dynamic pricing strategy lays the foundation for the study of the competition in real time and over the long term. Thanks to the study of the changes made, identifying the moment in which they occur and the variance in the amount, it’s possible to foresee new fluctuations, define the cycles involved in supply and demand, and to cater to new opportunities that may not be covered specifically. This, when launching in a new market, is a clear advantage for optimising your sales strategy. The Intelligence behind the technique Now that we know how dynamic pricing can help internationalise your eCommerce business, you need to know where it comes from and how it works. Every dynamic pricing strategy requires a tool that will execute it, a piece of software capable of accumulating data, processing it, and executing actions in response to the variables introduced by the algorithm. What technology allows this technique to be implemented? Remember these three words for the rest of the article: automation, big data, and machine learning. Let’s examine them one at a time. Automation is key Dynamic pricing is a technique that begins with process automation. Even though this is an exercise that could be performed manually, the complexity and breadth of the factors involved make it titanic enough to be impossible. Imagine for a moment what it would mean to review each product in the catalogue of each of your competitors one by one to extract the tendencies that you’ll use to obtain the prices for your store. Not at all appetising. It’s at the moment of implementing the dynamic pricing strategy that the automation technology comes into play, making everything possible. It executes the actions defined by the strategy based on the variables that have been given and analysed. Thus, in each case, an answer is given. The fact that the implementation of dynamic pricing is, in short, an automatic action means that there’s a considerable savings in human cost and time. This allows eCommerce managers and analysts to focus on higher-level tasks, such as studying data, extracting conclusions, and making the best decisions for the business. Wholesale data analysis The monitoring of each and every one of your competitors in each market in which you intend to expand your eCommerce business results in a vast amount of data that needs to be stored, processed, and analysed. Without a tool capable of doing so, it would be impossible to consider the actions to be carried out. This is a value to keep in mind, above all when it comes time to choose the best dynamic pricing solution for your eCommerce business. Depending on the size of the catalogue to be covered, the variables you want to measure, and the number of competitors, you’ll have to choose a piece of software that is powerful enough to cover all of your needs. Let’s look at a practical example. Imagine that an online supermarket wants to expand its network of stores to additional markets with the three variables that characterise its offerings: Fresh products whose price depends enormously on stock and seasonality; An enormous catalogue of products of all kinds, not all of which have to be edible; and In-house offers and discounts based on the demand and the seller’s warehouse, which on occasions needs to adjust its prices to move merchandise. With all this, the will have thousands or even millions of pieces of data accumulated after each registration. analysis of the competition of an online supermarket The part of big data that dynamic pricing is concerned with embraces its capacity to store data and to organise it correctly. Having millions of pieces of unstructured data can be as dangerous as having no information at all, if not more so. Machine learning as a driving force Let’s say that the technology that makes the world of dynamic pricing move is machine learning. And just because it’s been left for last doesn’t mean it’s the least important. As such, this technology, an indispensable part of artificial intelligence (AI) systems, is the true executor of the changes defined in the dynamic pricing strategy. The definition of a dynamic pricing strategy requires establishing variables between concrete events and the response as an action that the system has to carry out. It’s thanks to machine learning that the dynamic pricing software can identify patterns, read casuistry, and execute a response that is in line with the values set by each eCommerce business. This allows the optimisation of the pricing strategy to be continuous and directed towards the greatest sales revenue for the business. We’re moving towards the algorithm When the three legs of dynamic pricing come together is when you can say that the strategy joins the technique and, therefore, there are actions to be carried out. But what measures and controls them? The algorithm of each piece of software. This optimisation software is what each tool depends on and what they’ve been conceived for. Its objective is none other than to help you know, in each case, how the market in which you are selling works, what price you should be selling at, and how predisposed the users are to buy under those conditions. The algorithm calculates and optimises the strategy based on the prices of the competition, the eCommerce business’s inventory, offers and promotions defined in time (even if those dates have passed), and the volume of sales achieved in each of those moments. With this complete panorama, the dynamic pricing software can: Set the new best price for each product, within the established margins. Make predictions and allow them to be analysed by the eCommerce managers before specific dates arrive. Find the best starting price for new products being launched for the first time in the markets you’re planning to expand to. Dynamic pricing and your global consumer Up to now, we’ve focused on talking about the competition by explaining how dynamic pricing helps internationalise your online store. There is, however, another inevitable factor in this equation which is, really, the one that generates all of your profits: the consumer. We’re currently immersed in a paradigm of digital purchases as never seen before, perhaps never even imagined, at least with such short-term development. This adds a new variable that must be considered when taking your online store to another country: how can you adapt the prices of your products to the local user and their customs? Well, dynamic pricing returns once again like a superhero to shed light on the problem. We’ve already said that thanks to machine learning technology, dynamic pricing software can execute actions based on the casuistry forecast. This also corresponds to the activity of each user, making it possible for the price to be readjusted according to their interaction with the eCommerce business. In an increasingly changing and global environment, knowing the idiosyncrasies of each user when faced with a purchase decision is essential to improve sales. This is possible thanks to dynamic pricing actions based on the behaviour of the consumer. In each of your new markets, you can perform A/B testing by offering discounts after the first purchase, by creating urgency after the second visit to the same product, or even by duplicating offers on similar products. All of the marketing techniques that you can use to can also be combined with this pricing technique. Because the variables are endless, you can define ad hoc as many as you need to find the key that makes you sell more and better. improve the perception of your online prices Monitor the value of the local currency When internationalising your online store, there’s a new element that you’ll have to deal with: the local currency. While a currency is sometimes shared, like in the European Union, the next step is that of the precise the value of a currency that depends on the average standard of living in each country. A priori, this might seem like more a question of business and marketing than of pricing strategy, but it’s a factor that needs to be considered when defining the parameters that will be included in your dynamic pricing action elements. For example, in each market, the value of pennies or cents can be so ridiculous as to disregard them entirely. Or perhaps quite the opposite is true, converting this into a key factor in differentiating yourself from your competitors. This is something that can normally be referenced during the benchmarking, when carrying out an extensive analysis of the competition, but it’s impossible to know up to what point to do so if you don’t know how the users will react to this factor. With dynamic pricing, it’s possible to adapt your prices to the different cases that arise with these characteristics until you find the point that works best for your eCommerce store, wherever that may be. In short, dynamic pricing is one of the pillars that will allow you to settle your eCommerce business into as many new markets as you want. There’s no doubt that technology calls for new techniques that will allow you to make your business as scalable as you need, without wasting resources and while obtaining the maximum profits at all times. : | | Find us on Facebook Twitter LinkedIn
