A little-known trade provision is ending, and it will likely upend business for e-commerce companies and raise prices for consumers. De minimis has allowed companies to avoid duties on shipments to the U.S. that are worth $800 or less. It's a program that many companies, especially e-commerce giants, Shein and Temu, have taken advantage of to keep prices low. WSJ's Shen Lu explains how President Donald Trump has now ended that program for products from China and Hong Kong. We also speak with the CFO of shoe company Kuru about how the new rules could change their business.

Your laundry detergent could be causing your child's mysterious rash, and the cleaning industry doesn't want you to know it.In this eye-opening conversation with Steven, founder of Truly Free Home, I dive deep into the toxic reality of conventional cleaning products. Steven's journey began when his infant son developed a horrific rash from store-bought laundry detergent: a crisis that transformed him from a New York City chef into a mission-driven entrepreneur determined to create truly non-toxic cleaning products that actually work.What makes this conversation particularly powerful is Steven's unfiltered honesty about the cleaning industry's dirty secrets. With over 12,000 chemicals banned in Europe but only 16 restricted in the US, American consumers are largely unprotected from harmful ingredients hiding in everyday products. Through years of innovation and testing, Truly Free has developed effective, non-toxic alternatives that perform in real-world conditions - even in hard water.Beyond creating safer products, Truly Free is making a global impact through initiatives that rescue women from slavery and provide sustainable employment. Now, Steven is expanding his mission with Truly Free Market, a decentralized social commerce platform designed to connect mission-driven brands with conscious consumers. Whether you're concerned about your family's health or looking to support companies making a difference, this conversation reveals how your everyday purchases can create meaningful change.In today's episode, we're chatting about: • The shocking story of how Stephen's son's rash led to the creation of Truly Free • Why most "clean" laundry detergents fail in hard water (and how Truly Free solved it) • Why Truly Free offers a nature identical fragrance option• How Truly Free's Dryer Angel product has rescued hundreds of women from slavery • Details about the new Truly Free Market platform connecting ethical brands with consumersGET 100 FREE LOADS WITH THE LAUNDRY BUNDLEJOIN THE TRULY FREE MARKETGet Wyld Notes: Use code WENDY10 for 10% offMentioned in this episode:Wyld Notes Get 10% off Wyld Notes Botanical Perfume: https://wyldnotes.com/discount/WENDY10?ref=KathrynOstapuk

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1031: Today we're talking about Trump's possible easing of auto tariffs ahead of a Michigan trip, GM's courtroom defense over driver data privacy, and why e-commerce might be losing its edge as shoppers crave more fun and surprise.As he prepares to visit Michigan for the 100-day mark of his second term, President Trump is signaling potential changes that could ease the auto industry's tariff burdens.The administration is considering adjustments to tariffs on imported auto parts and may exempt automakers from certain steel and aluminum duties.The policy shift, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, appears aimed at supporting domestic manufacturers and suppliers.Proposed changes would address the “stacking” of tariffs—where multiple levies apply to the same imported vehicle—by potentially eliminating overlapping duties.The potential relief follows a joint letter from major automakers, including GM and Toyota, urging the administration to reconsider.“This deal is a major victory for the president's trade policy,” said Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, “by rewarding companies who manufacture domestically.”General Motors is facing a wave of lawsuits accusing the automaker of secretly collecting and selling drivers' behavioral data—claims GM is now trying to dismiss with a bold new legal argument.The lawsuits began in March 2024, alleging GM, OnStar, and data firms like LexisNexis shared driver behavior data without proper consent.GM discontinued its Smart Driver program in April 2024 and ended partnerships with LexisNexis and Verisk after public backlash.Now, GM argues the data collection didn't violate privacy because driving behavior on public roads isn't protected under privacy laws.“Driving data includes vehicle location, routes, braking events, and speed—all occurring on public thoroughfares,” GM said in its dismissal filing.“Roadways are public, and these behaviors are observed by all,” GM stated, citing precedent that public conduct doesn't carry a reasonable expectation of privacy.A new study from Criteo reveals that the digital checkout rush might be fading, with consumers craving the discovery and delight of in-store shopping.More than 75% of consumers say e-commerce is functional—but not fun—with 29% calling it a chore.Shoppers miss the thrill of the unexpected: 36% long for the “surprise finds” that often come in-store.A majority find online shopping overwhelming (78%) and lonely (79%), with only half describing it as enjoyable.While data privacy remains a concern, 43% of consumers are open to sharing data for a more tailored experience.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

This past week, I was doing some online window shopping for one of my clients. Her daughter is getting married later this year and so we're on the hunt for the perfect mother-of-the-bride dress! Imagine my excitement when I stumbled upon the unicorn dress we've been looking for. It was not only in one of the wedding colors, but my client's exact eye color (a match made in heaven). It was a stunning silhouette for her figure, modest to suit her personal taste, and well within her ideal price point. I mean, this dress checked all the boxes. I was about to excitedly save it to her Pinterest window shopping board as a possibility and then… my heart sank.   As I began browsing through all of the amazing 5-star reviews, I noticed something strange. Each and every happy customer photo modeling this dress was FAKE. They were all very clearly Photoshopped or AI generated on top of what I can only imagine each wedding party member was actually wearing on those special days. I ran a quick Google search on the store and saw that they had received just as many 1-star reviews as 5-star reviews and very little in-between. It was a scam website.   Has this ever happened to you? You're halfway through the checkout process and you get this internal inkling that something's not right? Maybe you've been burned by a bad online shopping experience in the past? You received the wrong item, a fake item, or no item at all. Maybe you're terrified to shop online because you don't know which brands and products you can trust!   Friend, this episode is for you. Today, I'm breaking down 8 online shopping red flags you need to watch out for so you can avoid the scammers, those hidden shipping fees, and the subpar pieces your closet simply doesn't have room for anymore. If you're in the process of up-leveling your wardrobe, it's time to raise the bar on what you're willing to buy online. So let's walk through the art of being a cautious buyer one red flag at a time.   FREE 5-MIN PERSONAL STYLE QUIZ: https://herstylellc.com/quiz HER STYLE BLOG: https://herstylellc.com/blog HER STYLE ON INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/heatherriggsstyle/ JOIN OUR FREE HER STYLE COMMUNITY: https://herstylellc.com/community   Related Episodes: 136 – My 1 MUST When Shopping Online (It Will Save You SO Many Returns!) 55 – Sick of Making Returns?

Transkript: In der heutigen Zeit gibt es viele Möglichkeiten, einzukaufen. Man kann ganz klassisch in die Stadt gehen und in einem Geschäft einkaufen. Oder man bestellt einfach im Internet und lässt sich alles nach Hause liefern. Beide Varianten haben Vorteile und Nachteile. In diesem Text möchte ich zeigen, welche Unterschiede es gibt und was ich persönlich bevorzuge.Vorteile vom Online-ShoppingDas Einkaufen im Internet ist in den letzten Jahren sehr beliebt geworden. Viele Menschen nutzen Online-Shops, weil es schnell und bequem ist. Man braucht nicht das Haus zu verlassen, steht nicht im Stau und muss keine schweren Einkaufstüten tragen. Besonders für Menschen, die wenig Zeit haben oder auf dem Land wohnen, ist das ein großer Vorteil.Außerdem ist die Auswahl im Internet sehr groß. Man kann viele verschiedene Produkte vergleichen und oft günstiger kaufen. Es gibt auch viele Kundenbewertungen, die bei der Entscheidung helfen können. Auch Rabatte und Sonderangebote findet man im Internet oft leichter als im Laden.Ein weiterer Punkt ist, dass man im Internet rund um die Uhr einkaufen kann. Egal ob Sonntag oder Mitternacht – Online-Shops haben immer geöffnet.Nachteile vom Online-ShoppingNatürlich hat das Online-Shopping auch Nachteile. Man kann die Produkte nicht anfassen oder ausprobieren, bevor man sie kauft. Besonders bei Kleidung, Schuhen oder Möbeln ist das ein Problem. Oft passt die Größe nicht oder die Farbe sieht anders aus als auf dem Bildschirm. Dann muss man das Produkt zurückschicken, was manchmal kompliziert und nervig ist.Auch die Lieferzeit kann ein Problem sein. Wenn man etwas dringend braucht, ist es oft besser, direkt in ein Geschäft zu gehen. Manche Menschen finden es außerdem schade, dass durch den Online-Handel viele kleine Geschäfte schließen müssen.Vorteile vom Einkaufen im GeschäftBeim Einkaufen im Laden hat man den Vorteil, dass man die Ware sofort mitnehmen kann. Man sieht genau, was man kauft, kann es anfassen und oft auch ausprobieren. Die Qualität ist sofort erkennbar. Besonders beim Einkauf von frischen Lebensmitteln, Kleidung oder technischen Geräten ist das ein Vorteil.Ein weiterer Pluspunkt ist die persönliche Beratung. Wenn man Fragen hat oder Hilfe braucht, kann man mit einem Verkäufer sprechen. Das ist im Internet nicht so einfach möglich.Für viele Menschen ist der Einkaufsbummel auch ein soziales Erlebnis. Man trifft Freunde, geht einen Kaffee trinken und verbringt Zeit in der Stadt. Online-Einkäufe sind dagegen eher anonym.Mein FazitIch finde, dass beide Einkaufsarten ihre Vorteile haben. Für Dinge, die ich genau kenne und nicht sofort brauche, kaufe ich gern online – zum Beispiel Bücher oder Technik. Wenn ich Kleidung, Lebensmittel oder Geschenke suche, gehe ich lieber ins Geschäft. Dort kann ich alles sehen, anfassen und manchmal auch ausprobieren.In Zukunft werden wahrscheinlich viele Menschen beides kombinieren. Wichtig ist, dass man bewusst einkauft – egal ob online oder im Laden – und dabei auf Qualität, Nachhaltigkeit und den eigenen Bedarf achtet.

US President Donald Trump's new tariffs are causing turbulence on financial markets worldwide — with noticeable consequences also for the German-speaking community in Australia. The Australian dollar recently fell to a record low of just 55 euro cents — the biggest daily loss since the 2008 financial crisis. This has direct consequences: Travel to Europe or the USA is becoming more expensive, as is online shopping abroad. How long this price slide will last is unclear — but experience from previous crises shows that the dollar could be weakened for months. - US-Präsident Donald Trumps neue Strafzölle sorgen weltweit für Turbulenzen an den Finanzmärkten – mit spürbaren Folgen auch für die deutschsprachige Community in Australien. Der australische Dollar fiel zuletzt auf ein Rekordtief von nur noch 55 Euro-Cent – der größte Tagesverlust seit der Finanzkrise 2008. Das hat direkte Auswirkungen: Reisen nach Europa oder in die USA werden teurer, ebenso wie Online-Einkäufe im Ausland. Wie lange dieser Kursrutsch anhält, ist unklar – doch Erfahrungen aus früheren Krisen zeigen: Der Dollar könnte über Monate schwächeln.

Sind es nur Milliarden oder gar Billionen? Ist es ein Schuldenpaket oder ein Investitionspaket? Vermutlich Beides. Was die wahrscheinlich nächste Bundesregierung da zusammenschnüren will, ist auf jeden Fall eine sehr große weitreichende finanzielle Maßnahme, mit der nachfolgende Generationen umgehen müssen - oder eben dürfen. Wir reden über den Sinn von Schulden, über die Vor- und die Nachteile. Wir blicken auf unterschiedliche finanzielle und moralische Schuldenkulturen und warum wir zum Beispiel in Deutschland als die HüterInnen des Geldes gelten, andere Länder das aber sehr viele lockerer sehen. Und was hat die schwäbische Hausfrau damit zu tun? Mit dabei: Johannes Müller-Salo, Philosoph an der Leibniz- Universität Hannover, Korinna Schönhärl, Kulturhistorikerin an der Uni Paderborn, Benjamin Müller, Hessenreporter, über den Pleite-Fall der Gemeinde Löhnberg und Hannelore Gandner, Schuldnerberaterin, Caritas Frankfurt. Podcast-Tipp: 10 Minuten Wirtschaft Buy now, be verschuldet later? Buy now, pay later ist super praktisch beim Onlineshopping - kann aber ziemlich gefährlich werden. Im worst case landet man bei der Schuldnerberatung. Das Problem ist nicht neu, aber es ist immer noch da - und wird wahrscheinlich durch ein Schlupfloch im System weiter da sein. Wie das genau aussieht und an welcher Stelle tatsächlich nachgebessert werden soll - darüber sprechen Nicolas Lieven und Melanie Böff.

Jeff Oxford is on the podcast today to talk about how you can get free Google Shopping listings as an e-commerce seller. Jeff explains what Google Shopping is, why they're not just paid ads,  and how you can achieve better rankings on Google Shopping. We also touch on why diversification away from Amazon is important and the things we have observed in SEO for e-commerce businesses. Today's episode is sponsored by Autron. Maximize your ROI with Autron's real-time algorithmic bidding, optimizing every ad dollar for smarter spending and higher returns. Start optimizing today and get 30% off for 3 months! The Big Takeaway Google Shopping is not just about ads; it's a separate search ranking. Amazon dominates Google Shopping listings, holding 50% of the top spots. Domain authority is one of the biggest factors for ranking in Google Shopping. Building backlinks to specific product pages is more effective than general domain authority. Product reviews significantly impact rankings in Google Shopping. Diversifying sales channels beyond Amazon is something worth considering. Recent SEO updates have favored e-commerce sites over content sites, so if you are new to SEO, don't be afraid!  E-commerce has seen significant growth, with a 50% increase over five years. Main image and title optimization are critical for product listings. Having keywords in product titles helps with rankings, but correlation is minimal. Lower-priced products tend to rank better in Google Shopping. Premium brands may struggle with SEO due to higher bounce rates. Core updates from Google adjust ranking factors periodically. A good mobile experience is absolutely essential for website ranking. User experience significantly impacts SEO performance. Content on collection pages can enhance SEO effectiveness. Link building remains a key strategy for improving search rankings.
