Clients want to move forward, but get stuck on processes, structure, or insight. It frustrates me when you see operational potential but can&#8217;t properly help the client. Optimize by Nexus enables me to serve clients better.&#8221; So says Digna van Zanten, founder &#038; owner of WPS<\/p>\n<p><strong>Already active<br \/><\/strong>Optimize has been operating under the radar for the past six months. During that time, we&#8217;ve helped our first international clients<\/p>\n<p>Over the past six months, Optimize has been operating under the radar. During that time, we&#8217;ve helped our first international clients achieve measurable results, both financially and in terms of organizational growth.<\/p>\n<p>Not just another consulting firm. But a partner that accelerates your growth alongside you.<\/p>\n<p>One of our clients put it perfectly: &#8220;Hell&#8217;s Kitchen for horticulture, in a positive way.&#8221; Because Optimize puts its finger on the sore spot. Not to tear down, but to build up.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re only a good fit for clients who are ambitious, want to change, and are open to growth. That&#8217;s the only profile we accept, and the results we achieve together really make a difference.&#8221; So&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hortidaily.com\/article\/9830464\/technology-alone-isn-t-enough-to-achieve-operational-excellence\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Technology alone isn&#8217;t enough to achieve operational excellence.&#8221; https:\/\/www.hortidaily.com\/article\/9830464\/technology-alone-isn-t-enough-to-achieve-operational-excellence\/ Publish Date: 2026-04-20 09:03:00 Source Domain:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":233315,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.hortidaily.com\/remote\/https\/agfstorage.blob.core.windows.net\/misc\/HD_com\/2026\/04\/17\/OP1.jpg?preset=OgImage","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-233314","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233314"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=233314"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233314\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":233316,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233314\/revisions\/233316"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/233315"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233314"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=233314"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=233314"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
