    Reimagining Retail: The Unofficial Most Interesting Retailers List (April) | Apr 24, 2024

    On today's podcast episode, we discuss the unofficial list of the most interesting retailers for the month of April. Each month, our analysts Arielle Feger, Becky Schilling, and Sara Lebow (aka The Committee) put together a very unofficial list of the top eight retailers they're watching based on which are making the most interesting moves: Who's launching new initiatives? Which partnerships are moving the needle? Which standout marketing campaigns are being created? In this month's episode, Committee members Arielle Feger and Sara Lebow will defend their list against vice president of content Suzy Davidkhanian and analyst Blake Droesch, who will dispute the power rankings by attempting to move retailers up, down, on, or off the list.

Digital maverick ,

Great show, my Friday weekly listen

My favorite show is the Friday show, because I think it covers a little bit everything. Great content, Marcus has a great job, and really great chemistry with the folks on the line. I feel like I learn four or five things that I can apply to my job each episode. Great work.
