I was going to recommened reading this Shopify article about converting website visitors to shoppers but then I realized what a rip off Shopify is.
In the screen shot shown, we see Shopify promote nine apps. The apps use the 'freemium' model where you try it for free, then often quickly get stuck paying. In sum, Shopify is nickel and dime-ing users.
When you use Shopify, it's like going to Disneyland and paying for each ride separately. You think that the theme park will be fun but by the time ...

For Sales Reps:
Is your job in danger? Faire, an online wholesale platform, wants to cut out reps. If you hear of your brands using Faire--or retailers--I'd ask them why they don't value sales reps.
Faire is not 'fair' to reps. It cheats you out of your hard work. Let's imagine you work on a retailer to open it, then clean its shelves, stock its shelves, and help it get product quickly. Then the store orders via Faire. When it does this, you're gonna be working for free.

Amazon changed retail a lot, but don't take your eye off Facebook. Facebook just planted a flag showing its retail aspirations by buying GrokStyle. Grok may be an ugly name but it's pretty cool tech: Grok's tech lets a person take a picture of a plate, for example, and find that plates that match that one online. That's pretty dangerous for brick-and-mortar retail stores. This promotes 'show rooming.'
Robert Rigot, taking a new look at the universal theme of love, has designed complementary sculptures for Baccarat. Cut into two blocks of crystal by the artists at Baccarat, the abstract profiles take shape, positioning the eyes, noses, and lips on the verge of touching. Used as book-ends, the pair remain separated but visually connected.

Diane Seidle, a Bridge coach, pens a column about Amazon in this month’s Tableware Today. The article shares that premium brands’ products are being severely discounted—meaning a slim margin is being made by the seller. I’ll be the first to admit that some margin is better than losing an order to a competitor and thereby getting no margin, but there is the line between competition and just making a subsistence living. A subsistence living is not humane, it’s stressful, bad for supporting your ...
