In the second part of our interview with Jeremey Padawer of Jazwares, Richard and Chris talk about his role and passion as a collector. Understanding collecting as an investment and an asset class, Padawer has become one of the leading collectors of Pokémon in the world. He talks about his analysis of what to collect, how to project long-term value, and how companies can effectively develop collectible segments as a means of generating value and long-term engagement with a brand.

In The Endcap, Chris and Richard discuss the changes in the sales function within companies and what it means that sales forces are aging and that fewer people are looking to sales as a career.
