    Radios Are Dead and Here Is What Comes Next for Retail Store Ops

    In this Retail Technology Spotlight series, Chris Walton sits down with Soroosh Seyhoon, Chief Revenue Officer at Zello, to explore how capturing and analyzing frontline voice data is transforming the way retailers understand and manage store operations. From AI-powered in-ear assistants to real-time operational intelligence, Soroosh explains why the conversations happening on the sales floor represent an untapped goldmine of data that most retailers are completely ignoring. Drawing from deployments across hundreds of store locations, Soroosh shares how Zello is helping retailers move beyond measuring outputs like sales and throughput to finally measuring the inputs, the frontline communications that drive those results. The conversation covers everything from reducing associate turnover and accelerating onboarding to auto-reporting safety incidents and uncovering hidden staffing inefficiencies hiding in plain sight. From digitizing push-to-talk communications to replacing two-device workflows with a single-pane-of-glass solution, this episode offers a practical roadmap for retailers ready to stop flying blind on what's actually happening on the floor and start building the connected store of the future.

    Lightning Round: Prime Day Shopping, Fast Food Takes, & Old Hickory | Fast Five Shorts

    This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five lightning round covers a little bit of everything, from the passing of legendary Fed chairman Alan Greenspan at age 100 and the question of who deserves the title of favorite economist, to whether Chris and Jenn are Prime Day shoppers (spoiler: neither is exactly hitting refresh at midnight). They also weigh in on Jersey Mike's overtaking Chick-fil-A as Florida's favorite fast food chain and Jenn makes a strong case for the family-sized sub. Plus, in honor of the Fourth of July weekend, Chris shares his pick for favorite historical U.S. figure, and it involves one of the all-time great presidential nicknames. A fun, fast, and slightly chaotic end to another great episode of the Omni Talk Fast Five. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/k2JviUlR0-Q This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

    Target's "Cheap Chic" Is Back With Isaac Mizrahi? | Fast Five Shorts

    This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five segment reacts to Target's decision to name fashion icon Isaac Mizrahi as its first-ever Creative Director at Large, a brand new role in which Mizrahi will advise on product design, mentor Target designers, and help the retailer reclaim its iconic cheap chic identity. Chris Walton and Jenn Hahn aren't exactly wowed. While they agree that creativity never hurts, both question whether a lack of design vision is actually what's holding Target back right now or whether the real issues are operational, from store execution to service to merchandising. Chris draws on his Target background to push back on the nostalgia play, invoking the legendary Missoni sellout as a reminder that you can't go back to the well and expect the same magic twice. They also wonder aloud where Mizrahi's influence will begin and end across a portfolio this broad and whether this headline is more about buzz than genuine strategic direction. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/k2JviUlR0-Q This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

  8. Bed Bath & Beyond Wants Your OLD Coupons Back | Fast Five Shorts

    Bed Bath & Beyond Wants Your OLD Coupons Back | Fast Five Shorts

    This Omni Talk Retail Fast Five segment covers Bed Bath & Beyond's Legendary Coupon Hunt, a 21-day nationwide sweepstakes inviting customers to dig out their old iconic blue 20% off coupons for a chance to win a $100,000 home refresh. Chris Walton and Jenn Hahn don't hold back. With only around 22 Bed Bath & Beyond branded stores still open and a grand prize that signals the brand isn't exactly betting the house on this one, the duo rates this squarely at a 99 out of 100 on the gimmick scale. They also compare it to Jeep's equally eyebrow-raising George Washington World Cup giveaway and debate whether buzz-worthy stunts like these can ever translate into real, lasting customer loyalty or whether they're just noise. ⏩ Tune in for the full episode here: https://youtu.be/k2JviUlR0-Q This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy
