Episode 7: How Retail Has Come Full Circle From the Milk Man and Avon Lady to Direct-to-Consumer Retail Rendez-Vous

    • Technology

In Episode 7 of Taking Stock: Talking All Things Retail, we discuss retail strategies of the past that have made a comeback — albeit in new, technology-driven ways. Some questions that we explore include:


Are Social Influencers the new Avon Ladies? 
Is By Now, Pay Later (BNPL) simply Layaway?
Will digital wallets replace cash and credit cards?
Is Buy Online, Pickup In Store (BOPIS) reminiscent of Consumers Distributing?

Episode 7 of Taking Stock features Norbert Altenstad, Director of Sales and Marketing at Jesta I.S., and Judith Kangas, Manager of Business Development and Strategic Alliances at Jesta I.S., with Robert Amster, Principal at The Retail Technology Group.
