Stronghold Data’s Jason Rincker: “In a (potential) recessionary environment, some people thrive and some people don’t. It comes down to knowing your customer, pure and simple. That client experience – if you can pinpoint the ones that may struggle in such an environment, those are different conversations than with the industry verticals that are going to thrive. Things are going to shift, and you just have to be prepared to have those different conversations. Again, it comes back to truly knowing your customers.”
