As Government Shutdown Continues, Retailers Prep for Ho-Hum Holiday Season
Posted in: Uncategorized
It’s poised to be another ho-hum holiday season for retailers.
The National Retail Federation says economic headwinds and the distractions of a government shutdown could temper spending this holiday season. The group expects sales in the months of November and December will increase modestly, by 3.9% to $602.1 billion, slightly ahead of last year’s 3.5% holiday sales growth.
“Our forecast is a realistic look at where we are right now in this economy — balancing continued uncertainty in Washington and an economy that has been teetering on incremental growth for years,” said Matthew Shay, NRF president-CEO, in a statement. “Overall, retailers are optimistic for the 2013 holiday season, hoping political debates over government spending and the debt ceiling do not erase any economic progress we’ve already made.”

There’s immense talent all around us. There are artists, writers, painters, programmers, app builders, actors, models, architects, scientists, doctors, chefs. Ever wondered what would happen if an artist and a doctor were shut up in a room together? What would happen if a scientist brought on a writer for a project? Interesting, that’s what. Experiment Collaborate aims to get together a group of people who want to jam with others from different disciplines, to create something new, innovative. Something they couldn’t possibly have done alone. This is a community of collaborators. And this is a series of online posters that are doing the rounds to get people to join.

Facebook, Cisco Target Local Business With Wifi Check-Ins
Posted in: UncategorizedFacebook wants more people to offer up physical location data at small local businesses. The lure is free wifi through its partner, Cisco.
Following a test period that originated last year at Philz Coffee locations in the San Francisco Bay area, 1,000 merchants across 50 countries now enable a wifi system with a Cisco backbone and Facebook consumer-facing front end.
Merchants using the wifi system can target ads to audience segments comprised of people who have visited their establishments. However, considering those audience pools may be relatively small, the data derived through the wifi check-ins is more likely to help advertisers get a better handle on the types of people who visit their stores. So, merchants are likely to use the added layers of data to help find larger groups of people to target via Facebook ads.
