Gordon On Brick-and-mortar Retail

Business


“When you are a hammer,” it is said, “everything looks like a nail.” I believe that Gen Z has a corollary to this, which is: “when you are a screen, everything looks like a problem that you can solve using a screen.” I strongly disagree with this philosophy, so much so that I launched Gordon Magazine, to show that the most delightful and enriching experiences happen face-to-face. Gordon magazine highlights this value by covering best practices and opportunities in brick-and-mortar retail. Learn more at www.gordonmag.com. Gordon is the podcast of Gordon Magazine. In the very first interview of Gordon, we're speaking to Colin Hunter, Co-founder and CEO of Alton Lane, a company that leverages bodyscanning technology to change the in-store experience in men's fine tailoring... while, also, using it destroy the person who the whole darned podcast was named for. Pretty darned rude, if you ask me. Actually, it's okay - Colin and I patch things up at the end. We also get a chance to discuss the impact of bodyscanning across all of retail, the future of men's tailoring, and why technologists seem to be the only ones good at creating in-store customer experiences in retail anymore. Give this podcast trailer a listen and if you're interested in learning more, check out the full episodes at iTunes, or wherever you get your podcasts. If you like it, please subscribe, review, and share Gordon online, so your friends can find it too. If you hate it, I would advise you to still write us a good review, and say it's a must-listen somewhere where your competitors will see it - they might as well suffer too, right?
