We give you training tips of the week and let you know what new features that Helium 10 has. That will give you serious strategies for serious sellers of any level in the e-commerce world. Let's see what's buzzing All For serious sellers of any level in the e-commerce world. Let's see what's buzzing All. Right, this is the first buzz of the new year, or second buzz of the new year, I should say. Let's go ahead and hop into it.   Bradley Sutton: The first thing we're going to talk about is an announcement they made at CES this week. The one who's reporting on it is actually CNBC, and the article is entitled Amazon aims to expand advertising business by letting retailers use its ad tools on their store. So some of the TLDR here is that Amazon is letting other retailers now use its own homegrown advertising tools to run sponsored ads on their own website. The service is designed to make it easier for other retailers to run targeted ad campaigns on their online stores. All right, so, as we know, ads has been big, you know, for Amazon over the years. We know that as Amazon sellers. But this is this is different. All right, so basically, like, let's say, I've got my own retail website, I can now use Amazon's advertising console to use the ad tech or the technology the advertising technology that Amazon has to run ads on my product pages on my website, on search, and this is going to help Amazon. You know like build it's like and how it can anticipate buyer behavior and things, but it's going to help. You know retailers as well, because you know, obviously, amazon's advertising system is very robust and you don't even have I believe you don't even have to be selling on amazon to take advantage of this service. So, uh, this is going to be interesting to watch as it rolls out and how this this changes the game for retailers. Perhaps you know, like, how many are going to adopt the amazon advertising um, as opposed to whatever they were using before. How many might start advertising more because of what's going on be definitely worth taking a look at.   Bradley Sutton: Now, last week we talked about the new title requirements and there was an Ask Me Anything in the Amazon forums a few days ago that kind of clarified some things and even some things that I was confused about. I'm not sure if I said it wrong last week, but like I probably read it right, but for sure I understood it wrong last week. But like I probably read it right, but for sure I understood it wrong. All right. The way I understood the title was that you can't duplicate words in the title. Did some of you guys get that too out of what their announcement was? But actually the fine print says you can't have more than two. All right, it's not, it's not. You can't have two or more, it's more than two. Little bit of dyslexia there, um. So basically that means if I have the word in the title you know, coffin shelf uh, for home decor, something, something coffin, blah, blah, blah, blah. That's okay. Last week, when I read this, I thought that wasn't okay, um, because I just must've switched the words when I was looking at it.   Bradley Sutton: But that's the first big thing that came from this AMA, but let's go ahead and open up some more of the questions and answers. There's some things that you guys might have had that I think are notable. Here is one question that I know a lot of us had. It said are the plural and singular versions of a word considered the same and count towards the maximum? And this seller said for example, if I had cake pan, loaf pan and muffin pans, is the word pans counted as the same as pan? And then that would make it three times, meaning that it's above two, meaning that that's against Amazon terms of service. And Jim from Amazon replied plural of the same word would be considered redundant. In the example you provided, pan and pans imply the same and thus it would be considered duplicate. All right, so there's the. I know people are asking about that. How are plurals considered? That's the answer, right there.   Bradley Sutton: Another question was from what impact will it have if we don't update? Changing the title like this could significantly affect our search traffic. And Jim says if the title is not updated, amazon will modify the product title to comply with a new policy, while retaining all relevant information. All right. So there you have it? It like you're not going to get your listing suppressed per se, but amazon's going to go in and change your title. Sounds like Another question by PTC Tim Do words that are part of the brand name count towards the count of reusing a word?   Bradley Sutton: For example, if the brand name is Muffin King, could they have a title such as Muffin King Beginner's Kit includes chocolate chip and banana nut muffin mixes and a 12 muffin pan. All right, so muffin is there three times in singular version. So you might think, oh, that can't be allowed. But Jim from Amazon says no, this will not be considered a policy violation, because the word or phrase is considered duplicate only when there are three or more instances in the same context. But muffin, the first instance is a brand name and the other two describe the product. So if you have a word that's part of your brand like maybe my brand was Manny's Coffin Shelves that first coffin doesn't count as the use of the word coffin in the title. That makes sense.   Bradley Sutton: Another person asked a question and says you know, there were some punctuation marks that were listed, like dollar sign, question mark, underscore, et cetera, and it says are these the only special characters allowed? What about dash colon, open parentheses, close parentheses, et cetera, and Jameson actually answered. He said hyphen, colon and regular brackets are allowed as they often have functional value. Uh, there actually were some other uh characters not allowed that Amazon didn't announce. And these are the tilde, you know, like the little ñ that goes over the N in Spanish when you say baño right. The greater than and less than symbols, those are not allowed. The semicolon is not allowed and the I don't know how you describe it, but it looks like a top of a house, the roof of a house. That symbol is not allowed. There were more different kind of like specifications and questions that people had that you might want to look at. So make sure to check the link in the comments to see some of the more the other clarifications on this new title policy.   Bradley Sutton: Next article we have here comes from Retail Dive and it's entitled how TikTok Shop is Changing the Way Brands Reach Customers. All right, so there's I brought this up because there's a lot of just interesting kind of like factoids here, and one of them it says 70% of TikTok users say they discover new brands and products on the platform 70%, that's crazy and 83% report TikTok playing a role in users' purchase decisions. I guarantee you we're not seeing that kind of stuff on Temu, right? The company also reports that three in four users are likely to buy something while using TikTok. Think about that, guys. How many users of TikTok are there? And three in four are likely to buy something. You might think, well, that's not something that you know. All marketplaces everybody should be buying something. But remember, TikTok is not a marketplace, TikTok is a social media. If you think three out of four people on Instagram are buying something, three out of four people on YouTube are buying something, it's like I don't know what the number is. It's probably like less than one in 10, one in 20. So this is like kind of an astronomical number.   Bradley Sutton: Now, why is TikTok so powerful? One reason is here. It says nearly three in five Gen Z consumers say they trust recommendations by local or micro influencers. Per a survey, over a quarter of US consumers who responded to the survey reported buying a gift directly based on an influencer's recommendations. That's kind of crazy and that's what drives, you know, TikTok shop sales is influencers and micro influencers. So, guys, if you're not selling on TikTok shop, you know, get out and do it. We have some, uh, some training on how to get started. We're going to have some more training. We're going to have, like, different tools that, uh, you guys might ask for that that would help you sell on TikTok shop. But, um, I was trying to. I'm starting to ramp up. I launched a couple more products on TikTok shop last night. I'm going to keep launching some products and let you guys know what I find, but I really think that TikTok shop is going to be one of the major marketplaces moving forward.   Bradley Sutton: Speaking of different marketplaces, let's switch gear and talk about a marketplace that I barely ever talk about but I actually personally sell on. That's eBay. All right, so this is articles from CNBC. It says eBay shares soar after. Meta allows listings on Facebook marketplace in US and Europe. All right. So in Germany, France and the US. What's going to happen is eBay listings are now going to be able to show up in Facebook marketplace. All right. So like that's going to give eBay listings a lot of visibility. So let's say I'm browsing on Facebook and I go to the Marketplace or maybe, who knows, maybe there'll be some way to put ads like in my Facebook feed. I'm going to be able to click on that product and then purchase it by signing in on eBay, I believe right there on the Facebook app still. So imagine being on Facebook, going to the Helium 10 members Facebook group, because you're getting all the good information there, and then you see an ad or something for an eBay product and while still on Facebook, you go ahead and purchase. I mean, if that's the way it's going to work, that's going to be, I think that might be a little bit successful for eBay. I'm definitely going to look into it for my eBay listings that I have. How many of you guys sell on eBay out there? Let me know in the comments below.   Bradley Sutton: Going back to the Amazon marketplace, last week, in case you missed it, there was a new conversion path reporting, a beta program that Amazon has. It kind of like reminds me of how AMC is set up, but now you're going to be able to see the ad touch points on a customer's 30-day path to conversion, starting with the purchases. All right, so this is available in sponsored ads and DSP. Make sure to check the link in the article below for more links on where you can find it, but like you'll be able to see oh, they saw the streaming TV, then they went to a sponsored display ad and then they went to a sponsored video ad. They saw a sponsored product ad. Now, this is good information, but there's definitely some things missing. Like you can't see the ACOS, like all right, great, I see that this kind of ad is what drove my sale, but my ACOS on that exact ad was like 400%. It's not exactly viable, right. So I mean, it's not perfect, but this is great, you know, step in the right direction as far as visibility goes with your advertising.   Bradley Sutton: Going back to TikTok, now guess what? TikTok is opening up a new marketplace and it's right here in North America. It is opening to Mexico. Per Yahoo Finance says TikTok expands e-commerce operation into Mexico and it says that they've already started inviting merchants to open stores on the platform ahead of the expected startup transactions in February. Now, who can sign up for Amazon or TikTok shop Mexico? Merchants with a locally registered entity are eligible to sign up. Now, that's interesting, because what's the requirement for USA? As we know, you could have a local entity being a US corporation, but if you're a foreigner with no US employees and nobody with a social security number, you can't sign up. But if this is to be taken at face value, you maybe can be a foreigner, but as long as you have a Mexican entity or business, it looks like you might be able to sign up on the platform and the first 90 days of activity for TikTok shop Mexico zero commission, zero commission fee in Mexico, or have a Mexican entity. Make sure to go ahead and consider starting up on the platform.   Bradley Sutton: All right, let's go into our new feature alerts now. This one is going to be for, I believe, all plans, Platinum and Diamond. It's been for elite for a while because it was actually elite members who first asked for this, but this is going to be in Magnet and Cerebro, um, at the start. It might be in other tools, but what sellers were looking for was a way to translate keywords. All right, like this could be, for, let's say, you're in the US marketplace and you see a whole bunch of Spanish keywords and you're just curious what it means. Well, what people were doing is that they would copy the keywords from Helium 10 and then put it to Google Translate or something like that.   Bradley Sutton: Or let's say you're doing keyword research in a marketplace that is not your native language, like maybe you're trying to make a listing for Amazon Japan. Of course, you can use Helium 10 Listing Builder to make a listing in Japanese, but you want to make sure you're feeding it the right keywords and you don't know what the keywords mean in Japanese. Well, this is what you can do. If you go into Listing Builder or into Cerebro, there will be a translate button right here, all right. So if you got the results in Magnet or Cerebro, just hit that and then you can go from, like English to Spanish, to German, to Chinese, et cetera, and you're going to have an option Like I'm going to pretend that maybe I'm somebody from China and I'm not. I don't speak English that well. Well, I'm going to go ahead and translate these English results into Chinese by default. It's actually going to show up right underneath the actual English keyword or whatever keyword or language you're looking at, but I can also change it where I can have it in a separate column, all right. So here now, all of a sudden, side by side, I've got the English keyword and the Chinese translation side by side. So this definitely helps English speaking people who are doing research in other languages or are curious what kind of meaning some of the keywords that are coming up in your own marketplace that are in different language, or if you speak a different language and you need just some quick translations, this is going to help. All right.   Bradley Sutton: Now let's talk about the training tip of the week, and this is actually. I'm still going to stay right here in Cerebro, actually, and I want to show you guys something again. Only Helium 10 has this, and what it is the Amazon recommended rank. So actually here in Cerebro, I've got my coffin shelf here Now. This is especially helpful if you ever start getting ranking issues like you start losing your rank, or if you maybe like lose indexing somehow, or maybe there's some keywords that you know you're relevant for in your index for, but you just can't get PPC impressions. This is especially helpful when you are first launching a product. As a matter of fact, you know, like this is what I've been teaching for the last two years, where if you launch a product, I say that you almost should always do a test listing first that you're not really going to sell, but just to check this metric and this is Amazon relevancy.   Bradley Sutton: Everybody always uses the term relevant and we can kind of insinuate hey, what is relevant for a product due to the keywords that are ranking for it. But until Helium 10 had this, you never knew what is really relevant to Amazon. What does Amazon think the product is? This Helium 10 is the only tool that's tying directly to Amazon to give you how relevant Amazon thinks a keyword is for your product and it's called Amazon recommended rank. It's listed from like a score of one to 900. The number one means it's the most relevant according to Amazon, et cetera.   Bradley Sutton: Now is the number one and number two and number three keywords always the top keywords for your product? No, but looking at the top 20, I always sort it in helium 10. And I look at the top 20 ones and it will tell me is Amazon confused about my product, especially if it's a brand new product, right? So let me just show you, for example, this is my coffin shelf here and if I go to this column of Amazon recommended rank and I hit it, it's going to sort it by the top ones and like look at this number one keyword that Amazon says I'm relevant for coffin shelf wall Manny's mysterious oddities coffin shelf coffin shelf small. So just by looking at these top you know 10 keywords, top 20 or so. Um, I can tell that. Hey, amazon pretty much knows what my product is. Now, something concerning is the actual keyword. Coffin shelf is the only the 28th keyword, so you know what that tells me. I might have some issues with advertising on my product. I might have to look at what's going on, but at the very least Amazon isn't very confused about my product.   Bradley Sutton: Now let me give you a contrast here. I went to the search results of coffin shelf and obviously my product is on page one. But here I scrolled all the way down to page four and then I saw just some random coffin shelf. Where did it? Here's a coffin shelf very similar to mine Pachyon floating shelves, coffin shape, shelf, wall mouth. This is a terrible title, but you see, their BSR is like 7 million. They are not selling any units at all of this, and they are right, even though this is one of the few coffin shelves. I mean, page two and three and four don't even have that many coffin shelves, because there's not even seven pages worth of coffin shelves.   Bradley Sutton: So you might be wondering why in the world is this product ranking so low? Well, outside of listing optimization, one of the reasons is the relevancy. Take a look when I run this product in Cerebro and I sort it by Amazon recommended rank. Let's go to that column right here. Look, do you remember what my mind was? Let's just look back here. Remember the top ones coffin wall shelf. Coffin shelf small spooky hanging coffin shelf Halloween decor indoor home. Look at the top keywords of what Amazon thinks is relevant for this poor. Selling coffin shelf. Floating shelf wall. Floating shelf. Selling coffin shelf. Floating shelf wall. Floating shelf. Wall shelves, room wall. Do you notice something? These are just generic keywords. So, for whatever reason, they must not have their listing optimized. Or maybe there's a category issue. But Amazon is not even picking up the word coffin in the top keywords that it is saying it's relevant for. So this product is probably never going to rank very well for coffin shelf. Nor are they going to be able to advertise if they wanted to.   Bradley Sutton: You can see right here with Helium 10, they're not advertising. But this just kind of like illustrates what can happen if you, if Amazon, gets confused about your product, you're going to have some issues. So make sure to check that out. All levels of Helium 10 can access that platinum diamond and above. Go into Cerebro. Run it on your own product, especially your brand new products. Or if you ever have trouble ranking or indexing and check sorted by the Amazon recommended rank, take a look at those top 20 keywords and see hey, does Amazon kind of like have a good idea about what your product is, or is it confused? And then you can take action from there. All right, guys, that's it for this week's Weekly Buzz. Hope you enjoyed these articles and also these new features and training tips. We'll see you next week to see what's buzzing.

On the podcast, Ann shares more about how she started her journey as a network marketer and eventually transitioned into building an online business. She homeschooled her boys who eventually discovered their own interest in online business. Over time, each of her sons played a role in helping her build the E-commerce Business School; a school dedicated to helping people escape the rat race by making consistent income with an Amazon retail store. Ann's heart-driven mission is seasoned with 18 years of experience helping families. After learning more about her and her team I felt strongly that they're a great resource for the PIE Tribe! Ann and I hosted a workshop together to help you get more familiar with her program. The workshop details: - How long does it take to make money with an Amazon Store - How much time and energy does it take to build an Amazon Store - How much experience do you need to make a profitable Amazon Store - Plus, when you register, you'll receive Ann's Profit Projection Calculator that shows exactly how much you need to invest to reach your monthly goals... whether that's an extra 1k, 5k, or 10k+ per month! You'll get a copy of the calculator to use on your own. And you'll receive a workbook created specifically for the workshop so you can really dig into the training. I love when we find partners that can illuminate the path and dispel the muddy waters! https://webinars.ecommercebusinessschool.com/ls-reg (Click this text) to register for the free webinar to see if building an Amazon store is right for you. Some say Amazon stores are not passive because they can be labor-intensive. This is certainly true if you try to build and maintain the store on your own. This is why the E-commerce Business School teaches its students to build a business that incorporates outsourced labor to offset the time and energy you personally are putting into the business. Although, Ann and I agree that it is vital for each business owner to be well-versed in all aspects of the business and to have a clear understanding of how each element works so that you can effectively manage your investment. I asked Ann about how many people she has helped build an Amazon store. The answer blew me away! Almost 9,000 people have built life-changing Amazon businesses as a result of the E-commerce Business Schools training. The success of her students is personally a high priority to Ann which was another reason I decided to sponsor her program. I love how she helps people systemize their businesses from the ground up so that they can quickly scale. When built correctly, Amazon retail stores can be a revenue-generating machine. There is much to know about how to build a successful e-commerce store. Having a trusted guide to help from the beginning increases the odds of success exponentially.

If you haven't heard yet, Starbucks and Amazon recently entered into a retail partnership. This new store concept is called the Starbucks Pickup with Amazon Go Experience. My gut reaction to hearing this news leak a few months ago was one of exuberance. Now that the first official location in midtown Manhattan NYC is open, it's easy to see that these pickup-only Starbucks stores paired with Amazon Go are going to be a fucking work of business partnership art. While long-term plans for this partnership are still unknown, three Starbucks Pickup with Amazon Go locations are planned for the initial test, with two more scheduled to open this year. So, why is this a really exciting retail partnership for both companies?

Dans ce nouvel épisode de Eat's Business, la revue de presse du Business de la Bouffe, Olivier Frey et Daniel Coutinho reviennent sur la guerre des prix engagée entre les industriels et la grande distribution, sur le changement d'offre alimentaire d'Amazon ainsi que sur le prototype de bouteille en papier de Coca-Cola.Dans cet épisode, sont aussi évoqués la position du président d'Alterfood sur la guerre des prix, la redéfinition des règles avec l'e-commerçant Picnic, les actionnaires de Tesco qui veulent combattre l'obésité, les conséquences de la crise sanitaire sur les ventes de petit électroménager, le devenir des parkings souterrains et les droits de douane américains sur le vin et les produits alimentaires européens. Guerre des prix : grande distribution x industrielsLe Figaro, Alimentation: le retour de la guerre des prix, 14/02/2021A deux semaines de la fin des négociations commerciales entre les distributeurs et les industriels de l’agroalimentaire, l’article nous apprend que “les désaccords sont légion” et que “le ton monte”.Le contexte est en effet particulier avec, d’un côté, la crise économique qui incite les acteurs de la grande distribution à maintenir des prix bas en rayon alors que, de l’autre côté, les industriels sont confrontés à la hausse des cours des matières premières, qui pèse sur leurs coûts de production.Industriels et distributeurs se rejettent la balle. Pour les premiers, les demandes quasi systématiques de déflation de la part des seconds sont « injustifiées ». Pour les seconds, les premiers ont des demandes « irréalistes » de 3% à 4% de hausse de tarifs en moyenne.La situation est telle que le Ministre de l’Agriculture, Julien Denormandie, est monté au créneau et a averti les acteurs de la grande distribution ainsi que les industriels que “en poussant les prix à la baisse, (ils sont en train) de creuser (leur) tombe”. L’article nous apprend également que le ministre souhaite introduire davantage de transparence dans les négociations. Il estime, en effet, que les distributeurs seraient plus enclins à accepter des revalorisations si les industriels indiquaient clairement combien ils paient aux agriculteurs, ce que beaucoup refusent de faire. Guerre des prix : le président-fondateur d'Alterfood prend la paroleLe Parisien, “Guerre des prix entre producteurs et grandes enseignes : «Le combat de David contre Goliath»”, 15/02/2021Alexis Vaillant, le président-fondateur d’Alterfood prend la parole pour dénoncer les conditions dans lesquelles se déroulent les négociations commerciales 2021, qu’il voit comme le combat de David contre Goliath.Si, selon lui, il ne faut pas mettre tous les distributeurs dans le même panier et qu’Alterfood a réussi à ne pas trop céder de terrain au niveau des prix, un distributeur a été jusqu'à baisser de 45% le volume des assortiments, ce qui entraîne mécaniquement une baisse de chiffre d’affaires de 500 à 700 000 euros, soit environ 10% des ventes de l’entreprise. Amazon change son offre alimentaireBusiness Insider, Comment Amazon va changer son offre alimentaire et s'associer avec Monoprix, 12/02/2021Cinq ans après son arrivée sur le secteur alimentaire en France, Amazon vient de tirer le bilan de son activité. Et il semblerait que ce dernier ne soit pas si positif que cela car le géant américain a décidé de réorienter son organisation sur la vente de produits alimentaires dans l'Hexagone.Comme l’explique l’article, jusqu'à maintenant, pour acheter un produit alimentaire Amazon, il fallait passer par l'option Prime Now, un service de livraison payant garantissant la livraison en moins de deux heures à Paris, une partie de la banlieue parisienne, Bordeaux, Lyon ou encore Nice. Le groupe utilisait pour ce faire 10 entrepôts en France dédiés exclusivement à la livraison des produits alimentaires. Mais un de ces entrepôts, situé dans le 18ème arrondissement de Paris, va changer son organisation pour devenir une sorte de station de livraison consacrée à la livraison via mobilité douce. Par ailleurs, le groupe a annoncé un autre changement important : d'ici le mois d'avril prochain, Amazon Retail va s'arrêter en France pour les produits alimentaires. En clair, cela signifie qu’Amazon va stopper l'achat et la vente de ce type de produits et donc abandonner son rôle de distributeur alimentaire.A partir d’avril, Amazon va quasi uniquement s'appuyer sur l'offre de Monoprix en proposant à terme 7 000 références, dont 1 600 vendues sous les différentes marques propres Monoprix. Analyse de l'activité de vente en ligne de produits alimentaires d’AmazonLe Furet du Retail, Amazon n’est vraiment plus à l’aise avec la vente en ligne de produits alimentaires. Une confirmation ?, 11/02/2021Une analyse de l'activité de vente en ligne de produits alimentaires d’Amazon en France et aux Etats-Unis réalisée par un des experts du secteur. Picnic, l’e-commerçant alimentaire néerlandais, impose ses règles aux clientsRepublik Retail, Découvrez Picnic, le néerlandais qui casse les règles de l’e-commerce alimentaire, 05/02/2021Un article intéressant sur Picnic, un acteur majeur du e-commerce alimentaire en Hollande qui lorgnerait le marché français. On y apprend notamment que sa part de marché serait passée de 6% en 2017 à environ 22% en 2020, avec un chiffre d’affaires estimé de 550 millions d’euros.Le fonctionnement de Picnic possède quelques particularités intéressantes :pour être client, il faut que l’adresse se trouve sur une tournée et il faut que le créneau de livraison, qui est fixe, convienne. Cela lui permet de bien maîtriser le dernier kilomètrel’assortiment est très court (environ 7000 références)l’offre se concentre sur les besoins des familles urbaines avec enfantsl’entreprise a conçu son propre camion de livraison, avec des roues qui tournent à 90 degrés pour faciliter les manœuvres en milieu urbain et se garer facilement. Sa conception a été pensée pour un déchargement rapide des bacs. Ainsi, “la livraison se fait en 3 mn contre 12 mn pour son concurrent Albert Heijn”.  Des actionnaires de Tesco veulent combattre l'obésitéLes Echos, Des actionnaires veulent que les supermarchés Tesco combattent l'obésité, 10/02/2021Alors que le Royaume-Uni est l'une des nations qui compte le plus de personnes obèses parmi sa population, les actionnaires de la plus grande chaîne de supermarchés du pays, Tesco, ont prévu de déposer une résolution “sanitaire” lors de la prochaine assemblée générale.Ils comptent ainsi demander au groupe de dévoiler la part que représente la vente des aliments et boissons les plus sains à partir de 2022 et de faire en sorte qu'elle augmente d'ici 2030. Pour passer, cette résolution doit être adoptée par 75% des votes des actionnaires lors de l'assemblée. Comme le rappelle l’article, certaines entreprises américaines, parmi lesquels Coca-Cola, Pepsi et McDonald's ont fait face à des demandes similaires de la part des actionnaires, notamment sur leur utilisation du sucre dans leurs produits.La crise sanitaire a dopé les ventes du petit électroménagerLes Echos, Friteuse, robots de cuisine, machine expresso… Le Covid a dopé les ventes d'électroménager, 13/02/2021En 2020, la crise sanitaire et la fermeture des cantines et restaurants a profité au secteur du petit électroménager. Parmi les succès notables : les robots multifonctions (+24%), les robots dédiés à la pâtisserie (+48%), les friteuses (+25,5%), les machines à pain (+82%), et les appareils à fondue, raclettes et autres planchas (+21%).Au global, les ventes d’électroménager ont progressé de 5% dans l'Hexagone, à plus de 9 milliards d'euros. Nouvelle vie pour les parkings souterrainsLe Monde, Agriculture urbaine, chambres froides, stockage de colis… la nouvelle vie des parkings souterrains, 16/02/2021Alors que les voitures désertes de plus en plus les centres ville, les parkings souterrains retrouvent une nouvelle vie. A Paris, par exemple, l’article nous apprend que Indigo et Effia, les deux leaders du stationnement, ont enregistré une baisse de 30 % de la fréquentation horaire ces dernières années. Ces parkings intéressent notamment les entreprises spécialisées dans l’approvisionnement des villes qui les utilisent comme des dark stores (voir la newsletter de la semaine dernière sur ce sujet). C’est le cas par exemple de monmarche.fr, qui utilise le niveau -1 d’un parking de l’Ile de la Cité à Paris à partir duquel “une trentaine de salariés préparent et livrent à vélo des paniers dans un rayon de 500m”. A la Porte de La Chapelle, l'entreprise d'agriculture urbaine Cycloponics fait pousser des champignons dans un parking situé sous un immeuble de logements sociaux.Et pour les entreprises qui gèrent ces parkings l’opération s’avère également intéressante car, comme l’explique l’article, la rentabilité des m2 loués est au moins égale à celle d'une place de stationnement. En conséquence, Indigo va équiper cinquante sites dans toute la France en chambres froides, casiers pour artisans ou consignes Amazon.  Test de bouteille en papier chez Coca-ColaBBC News, Coca-Cola company trials first paper bottle, 13/02/2021Alors que Coca-Cola a été classé premier pollueur de plastique au monde par l'association caritative Break Free From Plastic, le groupe a annoncé qu'il allait tester une bouteille en papier. Le concept concernera dans un premier temps sa marque de boisson aux fruits Adez.Le prototype est fabriqué par l’entreprise danoise Paboco à partir d'une coque en papier extra-forte qui contient encore une fine doublure en plastique. L'objectif est de créer une bouteille sans plastique, 100% recyclable, capable d'empêcher les gaz de s'échapper des boissons gazeuses.Pour Paboco, l’un des défis a consisté à créer une bouteille capable de résister aux forces exercées par les boissons gazeuses (soda, bières…) qui sont embouteillées sous pression. Il s’agit également de garantir qu'aucune fibre de papier ne s'écaille dans le liquide car cela risquerait d'altérer le goût de la boisson ou de compromettre les contrôles de santé et de sécurité.Mais même si les tests se déroulent parfaitement, le vrai défi consiste à se débarrasser complètement du plastique. Comme le papier ne peut pas entrer en contact direct avec les liquides, il est prévu d'utiliser un revêtement à base de plantes à l'intérieur de la bouteille. Droits de douane sur le vin et les aliments européens sont toujours d'actualitéWall Street Journal, Tariffs on Wine, Food From Europe to Stay for Now, U.S. Says, 12/02/2021Les espoirs de nombreuses entreprises européennes viennent d’être douchés. L'administration Biden a en effet affirmé qu'elle ne mettra pas fin de sitôt aux droits de douane imposés sur les importations de vin, de fromage et d'autres produits alimentaires européens. Ces prélèvements avaient été imposés par l'administration Trump dans le cadre d'un différend de longue date avec l'Union européenne sur les subventions à Airbus et Boeing.Fin 2019, Washington avait ainsi établi des droits de douane sur des vins et des produits alimentaires européens comme le fromage et les olives, pour une valeur de 7,5 milliards de dollars. En représailles, l'UE avait riposté avec des taxes sur le whisky, les noix et le tabac américains pour une valeur d'environ 4,5 milliards de dollars. Le 31 décembre dernier, les États-Unis ont renforcé les sanctions en imposant des droits de douane supplémentaires, soumettant la quasi-totalité des importations de vin en provenance de France et d'Allemagne à des droits de douane de 25%. Découvrez l’émission Eat’s Businesshttps://businessofbouffe.com/podcast-eats-business Pour vous abonner à la newsletter Eat’s Businesshttps://businessofbouffe.com/revue-de-presse-eats-business-newsletter

From the Simplr studios in San Francisco, this is your daily briefing.  IntroductionWith your Retail E-Commerce Briefing for today, Friday, November 15th, I'm Vincent Phamvan.Nike is breaking up with Amazon. The company announced they were ending their pilot program that began in 2017 to focus on selling more directly to their customers.  First, here are some retail headlines.  Disney+ Hits 10 Million Sign-upsDisney+ said it has hit 10 million sign-ups since launching in the U.S. and Canada on Tuesday despite thousands of glitches and complains on the first day. Although, reports of problems declined throughout the day as the company worked to resolve the issues. Disney attributed the issues to demand exceeding its expectations.Adore Me Opens Sixth StoreDigitally-native lingerie startup, Adore Me, has opened its sixth store in Chattanooga, Tennessee. The 7,000 square foot store is Adore Me’s largest location to date. The new store is nearly double the size of the retailer’s other locations, enabling it to dedicate more room for the fit and consultation area. The fitting room area also includes a bar offering refreshments and snacks. The brand’s inclusive mission is an essential element in the space, which features mannequins of all sizes and colors. Adore Me is on a growing list of digitally-native disruptor brands that have expanded into brick-and-mortar locations. Brands like Burrow, Allbirds, and Casper have all invested in physical spaces as their companies have grown.Google Expanding Local and Shopping CampaignsSearch giant, Google, is expanding its local and shopping campaigns for the holiday season. Saks Fifth Avenue and Sephora are among the retailers that have tested the capabilities. Local campaigns are designed to drive traffic to nearby locations while shopping campaigns have expanded buy online, pick up in-store capabilities for brick-and-mortar merchants. Saks this year is expanding its local campaigns to promote more store locations. The luxury retailer tested local campaigns for the holidays and saw a significant increase in store sales, along with an incremental offline return-on-ad-spend of 7 times. Sephora also saw a lift in store sales after testing the campaign.  Nike Will No Longer Sell Directly To AmazonNike will stop selling its merchandise directly to Amazon. The abrupt halt will end a pilot program that Nike and Amazon launched in 2017. At the time, Nike joined Amazon’s brand registry program in hopes the move would give them more control over Nike goods sold on the e-commerce site, more data on their customers, and added power to remove fake Nike listings. But Nike reportedly struggled to control the Amazon marketplace. Third-party sellers whose listings were removed would pop up again under a different name and official Nike products had fewer reviews and received worse positioning on the site.For Nike, the split also comes amid a massive overhaul of its retail strategy. It also follows the hiring of former eBay executive, John Donahoe, as its next CEO. The move signaled the company is more focused on its e-commerce sales and selling more directly to consumers. A Nike spokesperson said, “As part of Nike’s focus on elevating consumer experiences through more direct, personal relationships, we have made the decision to complete our current pilot with Amazon Retail. We will continue to invest in strong, distinctive partnerships for Nike with other retailers and platforms to seamlessly serve our consumers globally.”.ClosingThanks for listening to this latest episode of the Retail E-Commerce Briefing.

Nike will stop selling merchandise directly to Amazon, as part of its push to sell more directly to consumers. The abrupt halt will end a pilot test that Nike and Amazon launched together in 2017. At the time, Nike agreed to sell a limited product assortment to Amazon, in exchange for stricter policing of counterfeits and restrictions on unsanctioned sales of its products. That included Nike’s athletic footwear, apparel, and accessories. Prior to 2017, Nike had resisted such a deal with Amazon, focusing its attention on its own online marketplace and stores. The fear for many brands has always been that, by partnering with Amazon, a company loses control over how its brand is represented on the site. “As part of Nike’s focus on elevating consumer experiences through more direct, personal relationships, we have made the decision to complete our current pilot with Amazon Retail,” a Nike spokeswoman told CNBC in an emailed statement. “We will continue to invest in strong, distinctive partnerships for Nike with other retailers and platforms to seamlessly serve our consumers globally.” The spokeswoman added Nike will continue to use Amazon Web Services to run its website and a handful of mobile apps, like SNKRS. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/newscast-africa/support Learn more about your ad choices.

How does Kolton look to achieve the balance of ambitious goal setting without the team losing motivation if they do not hit the goals?

Could the 21st century herald a new era of unlimited access to goods and services as opposed to the 20th century concept of buying and owning these same goods and services? Ten years ago you would buy a physical copy of a movie on DVD if you wanted to watch it again and again; now it’s just available to you 24/7 as part of a subscription to Netflix. What about on demand technology, from smartphones to cars being accessed via a subscription? It’s foreseeable, could yield greater benefits for our environment with resources only being used by those who actually need to use it at any given time, and it could divorce us from the notion that we could only find our standing in society based on how much we own. Steve and Ben look at this changing trend in ownership versus access, as well as the news that Amazon Retail will be coming to Australia.

In this week's podcast, QCon chair Wesley Reisz talks to Kolton Andrus. Andrus is the founder of Gremlin Inc. He was a Chaos Engineer at Netflix, focused on the resilience of the Edge services. He designed and built FIT: Netflix’s failure injection service. Prior, he improved the performance and reliability of the Amazon Retail website. Why listen to this podcast: - Gremlin, Kolton Andrus' new start-up, is focused on providing failure testing as a service. Version 1, currently in closed beta, is focused on infrastructure failures. - Lineage-driven Fault Injection (LDFI) allowed Netflix to dramatically reduce the number of tests they needed to run in order to explore a problem space. - You generally want to run failure tests in production, but you can't start there. Start in developemnt and build up. - Having failure testing at an application level, as Netflix does, so you can have request level fault injection for a specific user or a specific device. - Being able to trace infrastructure with something like Dapper or Zipkin offers tremendous value. At Netflix, the failure injection system is integrated into the tracing system, which meant that when they caused a failure they could see all the points in the system that it touched.
