Omni Talk Retail

In the latest episode of our Omni Talk Retail Spotlight Series, 1010data's Chief Product Officer Jonah Ellin joined Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga to discuss why dedicating data and AI resources to promotional effectiveness may be the smartest decision retailers and CPGs can make right now. In this podcast, Chris and Anne go deep with Jonah on: - What makes the typical retail promotional planning process so arcane and fraught with issues - Where and how retailers can improve their promotional processes - Why AI stands to have a big ROI impact on promotions - And, most importantly, how software deployments that harness AI could one day make all these fancy hardware investments, like robots and cameras in-store, obsolete It is a podcast so chock full of "ah-ha" moments that we wouldn't be surprised if it changed the way you think about retail technology going forward. It sure as heck did for us! *Sponsored Content*

Buncha Co-Founder and CEO Bharat Pulgam joins Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga to discuss a smarter way to think about last-mile delivery, i.e. giving customers scheduled weekly neighborhood deliveries at a fraction of the cost. In this podcast, Chris and Anne go deep with Bharat on: - The misconceptions around speed vs. convenience, especially when the former is far more expensive - The economic value of scheduled neighborhood deliveries both for consumers and for retailers - How such a model increases pick and pack efficiency (by enabling orders to be processed in stores overnight) while also significantly lowering delivery costs - And why the whole concept may just be a radical new way to think about localized fulfillment It is a concept that draws many parallels with how airlines operate and one that is sure to challenge your conventional ways of thinking about e-commerce.

Every retailer has gone down the rabbit hole of trying to improve their sales and inventory planning systems with little to no financial results to show for it. And that is because the real ROI lies not in better planning but in better allocation, for where a retailer decides to place its goods in-season, considering all the constraints it must optimize against, has an immediate impact on the bottom line. So Omni Talk is pleased to announce that Manhattan's Senior Director, Product Strategy, Scott Fenwick, joined Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga for the latest installment of their Omni Talk Ask An Expert Series to discuss all the ways retailers can capitalize on the financial opportunity latent in better allocation. Collectively the three of them go deep on: – The increased pressures all the various fulfillment options coming out of the pandemic (e.g., BOPIS, ship-from-store, etc.) have placed on allocation systems – How most legacy allocation systems do not know how to read and react to these new "Omni"-signals – And, perhaps most importantly, why all of that ladders up into one heck of an ROI opportunity Please check out additional information on Manhattan's Allocation and Order Management Solutions.
