Gordon On Brick-and-mortar Retail

Business


In this episode of the Gordon Podcast, the ne'er do well twin brother of Gordon Magazine, we’re talking to Colin Hunter, CEO and co-founder of technology-driven custom tailor Alton Lane. This episode is part two of a two-part interview with Colin. In this episode Colin tells us about the wider applications of body scan in retail -- where it could revolutionize retail, and areas where it decidedly will not. He also discusses the recipe for success around in-store robotics, and what parts of the customer experience still require a human touch. If you missed part one of our interview with Colin, you'll definitely want to check it out. We discuss how body scan is enhancing the customer experience. We also discuss how bodyscanning has eliminated the need for custom tailors, but that these measurement robots might just be the saviors that keep custom tailoring alive.
