Shoot us a Text.Today we're talking about the legendary stunts of the Detroit Auto Show, the stabilization of used car prices after pandemic volatility, and Starbucks shutting down stores for a barista reboot under its new CEO.The Detroit Auto Show has long been a stage for iconic moments, from smashing Jeeps through glass to launching entire luxury brands. Once the epicenter of automotive innovation, the event has struggled in recent years to maintain relevance amid rising costs, digital marketing trends, and competing global expos.During the '90s and early 2000s, the show was the must-attend event for automakers and media, with 4,000 journalists.Some theatrical reveals included Bob Lutz driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee through a plate glass window in 1992, a Dodge Ram crashing through cardboard in 1993, Kermit the Frog driving a minivan in 1995, and a cattle drive introducing the 2009 Dodge Ram.Automakers invested millions in jaw-dropping spectacles, like Cirque du Soleil performances and celebrity appearances, making it a race to outdo each other every year.The rise of CES and specialty expos, coupled with automakers shifting to digital-first marketing strategies, diluted the Detroit show's dominance.The Detroit Auto Show has since returned to its January roots, focusing on engaging consumers rather than relying on the media spectacle it once was."The world has changed. That is reflected in the auto show," said David Cole, chairman emeritus of the Center for Automotive Research.This year's show will be January 10 to January 20, 2025, at Huntington Place in DetroitUsed vehicle prices are expected to stabilize further in 2025, bringing relief to buyers after years of pandemic-induced volatility. While still higher than pre-pandemic levels, prices are trending toward normalization.Cox Automotive predicts wholesale prices will end 2025 up 1.4% compared to December 2024.Prices surged 46.6% in 2021 and 14.2% in 2020 but dropped sharply in 2022 and 2023.Retail prices remain slow to decline, with December's average listing at $25,565, down 3% year over year.Used vehicle sales are forecast to rise 1% in 2025, with 20.1 million retail sales.Starbucks is hosting a mandatory three-hour training session later this month as part of CEO Brian Niccol's effort to revitalize the brand. Niccol's said in a session description,“We will refocus on what has always set Starbucks apart — a welcoming coffeehouse,” The training, titled "Welcome Back to Starbucks," will run from January 21-26, with employees attending at staggered times.Stores may close dining rooms but keep drive-thrus open to accommodate the sessions.Niccol, known for his turnaround at Chipotle, has already introduced changes like faster drink prep and self-service condiment bars.Employees hope for additional workflow adjustments to streamline operations and better balance quick Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

On today's episode, I'm joined by Karen Totaro, General Manager at Huntington Place - Detroit (ASM Global), for a conversation on how diversity strengthens hospitality organizations. Karen's foray into hospitality came in college, working at various arenas and stadiums. The excitement before a big event was almost tangible to her, and the thrill of hosting such an electric atmosphere drew her into the event industry where she's been ever since. Large events and conventions require a great team to be able to pull it all off, and Karen thinks that the team should embrace diversity to be successful. Different backgrounds and experiences bring in new perspectives and ideas, and having a diverse team means there's a better chance a client can mesh well with someone on staff, whatever their background. As Karen puts it, diversity is a superpower that elevates an organization to a new level of service. - Karen Totaro - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/totaro411/?hl=en - Huntington Palace - Detroit (AMS Global) - https://www.huntingtonplacedetroit.com/ - Chris Cano - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrismcano/ - Upshift - https://www.linkedin.com/company/upsh%C4%B1ft/ #hospitality #Foodservice If you enjoyed today's show, please leave a 5-star review.
