Retail Done Right episodes

  • S5 Ep3 | CRAFT with Chris DiTullio

     If craft is having a heyday, and the numbers confirm it is, why did the store built to serve makers go bankrupt twice in one year? The craft store died, but the making didn’t. In fact, one of our featured voices in the opener notes that she mourns the loss - delivered by her unprompted. There really wasn't - and still isn’t - anything like it for some guests. We explore this with Chris DiTullio, former Chief Commercial Officer and interim CEO of Joann’s. We explore making, craft, grief and recovery.

  • S5 Ep 2 | LOYALTY with Mark Gardiner

    Episode 2 of Season 5 argues that Trader Joe’s built the most durable loyalty in American grocery retail by doing the opposite of what every retail loyalty playbook prescribes. Our thesis: they didn’t design a loyalty program. They designed a place that generates belonging. And belonging is what loyalty programs are trying to buy but cannot. Our special guest, Mark Gardiner, author of Build a Brand Like Trader Joe’s, joins us to share insights from the inside on how a brand this strong was built without advertising.

  • S5 - Episode - Teaser

    The people who shape this approach for both of us are not retail analysts. They are people who talk about store experiences and who feel those emotions quite personally. As Simon Sinek said, people don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it. and I love it, but we take Simon Sinek seriously this season. That's a lot of S's. Every episode begins with the why and works outward because the why is what people actually carry with them long after the episode ends.

  • S4 Ep3 | Tech Debt as Business Risk

    The third episode of our mini-series is titled, Tech Debt as Business Risk.

     

    While it’s called tech debt, it’s really about business strategy - and the ability of the business and the ability of all its systems to respond to customers and changes in the market.  Here are a number of articles that provide detailed explanations:  Technical Debt Skeletons and Tech Debt: Reclaiming Tech Equity and Tech Transformation in Retail and a personal favorite – an oldie but a goodie on explaining tech debt: Retail’s technical debt comes due

  • S4 Ep 2 | New Supplies, New Demands

    This is another trend we saw come up through the WARDLEY maps. Supply chains came to the breaking point during the pandemic but they were stressed beforehand. As complexity increased  - distance, currencies, intermediaries - new ways of working, rapid changes in communications modes. The systems designed to run “lights out” were completely opaque which made understanding, and then changing them very difficult. And it impacted everyone buying and selling goods in some fashion.
