Health is Wealth: Healthy Websites 🍎
Do website service providers need a digital health label?
May 18, 2024
When you pick up a package of Oreos or yogurt at the grocery store, you can see the nutrition (or lack of it!) on the nutrition label on the back. Health advocates are encouraging the FDA to make warnings more obvious on packages—such as by placing information on the front of the package, shares The Wall St. Journal. Advocates have looked abroad for inspiration. In Mexico, you’ll find labels with a black octagon, resembling a stop sign, on the front of Doritos and Nature Valley ...

Today’s Gen Z gift registrants want to do everything online, often on their iPhone 14. They want to start a registry, add products, remove products, edit quantities, and view purchases. They don't want to call the store to do this.   

In the adoption of digital tools, another trend is also at play: female shoppers are busier than before. Today, more women graduate from college than men. Women are increasingly doctors, CEOs, and world leaders. (Italy just welcomed its ...

Some people like to sit on the sofa and eat Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. I roll my eyes at this because I’m very different: I like to read the Wall St. Journal’s Christopher Mims …while eating an entire pint of Ben & Jerry’s on the sofa. This past weekend, Mr. Mims suggested companies may be reassessing where they source products, some even considering more domestic production. The motivation for this started a few years ago with the U.S.-China trade war, ...

9 Ways Your Bridge Is Different Than Other Online Stores
March 7, 2022
There are approximately 40 online e-commerce providers. These software providers help other businesses sell online by offering them the ability to run an online store. These providers include Bridge as well as Shopify, Magento, Big Commerce, BigCartel, Square, and Weebly.  Does Bridge offer a different (better?) experience than these other platforms? We believe the answer is yes. We also think our 960 retail clients agree: 99.7% of our retailers retain our service each month.

Small Retail Shops Becoming Small Warehouses
February 21, 2022
A new trend in retail is vacant shops in urban neighborhoods being converted to small warehouses.  In the East Village on 10th Street, we see on the left the new warehouse model; on the right we see a traditional retailer.  For the ‘store’ on the left, the customer orders via their mobile phone and then does a pickup or gets a delivery. 

I’m seeing more of these  ‘zombie stores’ around the city. Just in the East Village, I’ve seen four: ...

Three Reasons 800 Retailers Choose Bridge Store
June 19, 2021
Let’s imagine a retailer wants to operate an online store. What would the retailer and its customers experience when using Bridge vs other software?  We found that a retailer using Bridge can go from having no web store to one with thousands of products in under an hour. And, there’s no charge. Other software doesn’t offer this ability.  

To highlight our findings, we put together this comparison graphic showing Bridge Store and Shopify. (We chose Shopify to ...
