Hey Big Boxers,

Goodbye Toys R Us is a bit of a look back at my career with this retailer and what they were able to teach me. It is sad to see such a giant in retail go away forever, however sometimes change, no matter how hard or sad, is inevitable. I have some fond, crazy, chaotic memories of working at this retailer and I am looking forward to sharing them with you.

We all go through times when everything is going wrong, everything is happening, and we just don’t know what to do. Sometimes people get busy doing the wrong things. When things are going wrong, doing more of them is not going to help the situation. Bill Carmody, Tracy Hazzard, Salah Khalaf, and Joe Tarnowski discuss some great options for what to do when things go wrong or when you experience difficulty in your business. They provide some key information that you should take advantage of, so that you can minimize when things don’t go as planned.

The process of selling a consumer goods product to a buyer hasn’t changed much in the last 100 years. You do a demonstration and hopefully, people become interested. Trying to think of new and different ways to make this process either easier, better, or more enjoyable is where AR/VR come into retail. These technologies could be used to introduce buyers to products. Jacki Morie is an expert in the field of AR and VR. As Head of Education at Upload, she is educating the next generation of people on what they could do with AR and VR. She also owns All These Worlds where they do virtual reality work for health, mindfulness, and training. Jacki talks more about the difference in virtual and augmented reality, and the different ways they can be used in business retail.
