The economy is slowing due to myriad factors, including weak hiring. When retailers and brands don’t hire, they’re short-staffed. When they are short-staffed, they’ll need software and technology to fill in the gaps.
Brands and retailers will benefit from our digital service, the Syncing service, that updates online product pricing and pictures for pennies per product. With e-commerce continuing to grow and labor hamstrung, there won’t be a better solution than ...

I was working on scheduling a late summer mini-vacation so I carved out an afternoon for the planning. There were so many factors to consider (where? when? how long?) on top of juggling all of us coming from different parts of the U.S. The options were staggering and required so much screen time I was just about ready to give up. When did the world at our fingertips become a negative?
I got to thinking about the astronomical number of options Americans have in every aspect of life. I’ll...

Why only 30% of wedding gift givers will come into a store in 2030--and how we can help prepare for that
July 23, 2024
Tableware Today’s Editor Amy Stavis invited me to pen the Last Word column for the August / September issue. I start by comparing e-commerce trends for selling automobiles to selling dinner plates. Online sales in both industries have swelled in the last 25 years. (I entered the e-commerce business at the right time—in 2001.)
