Wonders & Blunders: Burning Through Dough: Outer Space Edition
Are We On Mars, or What?
This week, it feels like we’re on another planet looking down on some really bonkers activity on Earth. Is Russia hacking into U.S. government broadcasts? Is Silicon Valley just pretending to support workforce diversity? Is outer space travel too expensive? And are the San Diego Chargers really moving to L.A.? We don’t buy any of it – or do we? See you on Mars.

Think Like a Startup
Consumer behavior has shifted dramatically in recent years, and many legacy retailers (see: Macy’s) have struggled to keep up. Others, however (we’re looking at Zara, H&M, and Nike) have enhanced expediency, convenience and high satisfaction to stimulate sales and stay in the game. Bottom line: The winners in retail are thinking like startups. TechCrunch offers the old guard the following suggestions to innovate your brand in the new age of consumerism:
- Make the most of mobile
- Physical becomes digital
- Engage in dialogue
- Utilize alternative shipping models (think subscription-based services)
