Loyalty Programs
How restaurants, hotels, and tableware brands are using loyalty programs--and what indie stores can learn from this.
October 11, 2023
Perk-y
I recently read about a new loyalty program and wondered what we could learn from it. The founder of Eater and Resy, Ben Leventhal, has started Blackbird, a loyalty program service designed for indie restaurants, reports The New York Times (Read the article). Using the Blackbird app, a diner receives a perk for eating at a restaurant. The retailer sets tiers for which the user qualifies for the perk. For example, a restaurant, Nat’s on Bank in New York City, gives tier 1 customers ...

Meet Your Neighbors: Amazon Operates an Illegal “Warehouse” at the USPS
October 8, 2023
Amazon and third-party delivery services have setup a “warehouse” outside the Astor Place USPS office.  This is not a truck parking for five minutes.  This a day-long, everyday occurrence. I’ve seen this same scene on a daily basis all around the city for the last three years. 

This hurts local retailers. While the local businesses pay extra taxes to operate a store in southern Manhattan, it costs Amazon much less to park a delivery truck (permanently?), put ...

Why rent a storefront when you can use a street for free?
October 6, 2023
I see this situation all over the city.  Amazon shipping companies are “warehousing” our public space. They put up cones and are permanently setup and conducting business. They use public space for private commercial use. 

They’re like a pop-up store in a public parking spot. But unlike a physical store that is in a private building and pays commercial storefront taxes, these trucks don’t pay those retailer taxes.  (Each year businesses in lower ...
