Is the “Age of Ozempic” reshaping The Vitamin Shoppe? In May 2024, The Vitamin Shoppe introduced a telehealth service called Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe that safely and seamlessly connects patients with licensed healthcare providers in real time…streamlining access to GLP-1 agonist medications, both branded and compounded versions (that is until the FDA recently updated its drug supply shortage list, making compounding a FD&C Act volitation). Moreover, these telehealth services are offered alongside The Vitamin Shoppe's industry-leading education resources, as well as nutritionist-recommended supplements to help optimize the weight loss journey for healthy results. So, with Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe targeting personalized care verticals, instead of a wide range of treatment and care needs like GNC Health…the better comparable company analysis would be Hims & Hers. And interestingly enough, within a piece of content from November 2021…my words arguably created the foundation for this entire Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe strategy! But a behavioral change that arguably started gaining importance about a decade prior…when more individuals began viewing themselves as consumers in the healthcare market compared to solely being patients. Because of that, consumer healthcare has begun evolving from a reactive, one-size-fits-all approach to a distinctively proactive, personalized, and integrative approach. But as you'd imagine that marketplace evolution has created immense opportunities. Though, this why specialty supplement retailers must have a foundational mindset that place customers at the center of a flexible, almost choose your own adventure style of shopping…acknowledging wellness-minded consumers are also more “solution aware” due to the sheer access to information substitutions. And this was partly why my “vision for the future” included specialty supplement retailers and pharmacy (drug channel) retailers converging into wellness retailers. Specialty shouldn't mean singular solution, thus a retailer like The Vitamin Shoppe must continue evolving its total solutions to become a bigger part of the wellness journey. Alternatively, “trying to be everything to everyone” can be problematic, which is why I mentioned earlier about The Vitamin Shoppe essentially taking the “depth” over “breadth” page out of the Hims & Hers strategic playbook. By increasing optionality of solutions for only its most compelling valuable consumer cohorts, The Vitamin Shoppe can more effectively deliver an experience that removes barriers and provides access to better health that is approachable, personalized, and convenient. And while I believe physicians are quickly becoming more educated around how patients can manage the early phase of the process, what side effects to anticipate, and how to mitigate or manage those side effects…there's also a significant education and nutrition support role for specialty retailers, as consumers look for help navigating this new, confusing “Age of Ozempic” world. But with the launch of its new private label brand, GLP-1 Support from Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe…the specialty retailer recognized it was well-positioned to fill a critical gap in the market for tailored nutritional support. But then for the final portion of my latest first principles thinking content, I wanted to give my outlook for Whole Health Rx by The Vitamin Shoppe.

Elegir un producto ganador para una marca privada no es cuestión de suerte, sino de análisis y estrategia. Raúl Ulloa, co-host del podcast de Wizards Of Ecom, explica los aspectos clave para validar una idea antes de lanzarla al mercado y minimizar riesgos. “Lo primero que deberías tener en vista es a una persona que ya lo está haciendo y le esté yendo bien. Entonces ya te estás sacando un montón de personas que están dando información y quizás no es la data que estás buscando. Es bueno preguntarle los pasos a seguir”, recomienda Raúl. Observar qué productos están funcionando y cómo lo han logrado es el primer paso para encontrar una oportunidad de negocio. Además, es fundamental validar la demanda antes de invertir tiempo y dinero en un producto. “Lo primero que tenemos que considerar es que haya un volumen de búsqueda del producto, de al menos mil personas para arriba”, señala nuestro co-host. Esto significa que debe existir un interés real y constante por parte de los consumidores, ya que, sin una base sólida de compradores potenciales, las ventas podrían ser muy bajas o incluso inexistentes. Otro punto clave es la diferenciación. “Puedes mejorar la calidad de un producto, pero debes darle más valor, que tenga más cosas que la gente vea fácilmente”, remarca Raúl. No se trata solo de hacer un producto más resistente o atractivo, sino de ofrecer algo que realmente destaque. En este sentido, también es importante analizar la competencia: “Mientras menos reviews tengan nuestros competidores, mejor”. Esto facilita la entrada al mercado sin enfrentarse a marcas ya establecidas con miles de reseñas. Uno de los errores más comunes es subestimar la importancia de los listados y las imágenes. “Donde las personas evitan invertir más es en los listados y las fotografías”, comenta nuestro co-host. Sin embargo, un buen contenido visual y descripciones optimizadas pueden marcar la diferencia en las ventas. Para reducir riesgos antes del lanzamiento, la validación es clave. Entender a quién va dirigido el producto es esencial en este proceso. “Algo importantísimo antes de lanzar un producto de Private Label es saber cuál es mi potencial cliente y qué quiere”, advierte Raúl. Conocer sus necesidades, hábitos de compra y preferencias permite diseñar una propuesta de valor más atractiva y efectiva. Las grandes marcas no lanzan un producto sin probarlo antes, y los emprendedores deben seguir el mismo camino. “Hay que validar la idea y eso se hace poniendo nuestro producto enfrente de nuestros potenciales clientes. Las grandes marcas hacen pruebas y pruebas”, afirma nuestro co-host. Para esto, herramientas como PickFu pueden ser de gran ayuda: “La foto del producto que vamos a lanzar normalmente la llevamos a ese tipo de plataformas, que nos van a acercar a esas personas que necesitamos para testear nuestras ideas”, sostiene Raúl. Comparar el producto con la competencia también ayuda a mejorar la propuesta final. “Debes agarrar las fotos principales de tus competidores para colocarlas en la encuesta, porque conviene comparar tu idea contra los productos que ya están, así puedes mejorar tu lanzamiento”, aconseja Raúl. Lanzar un producto en Marca Privada requiere más que una buena idea; implica análisis, validación y una ejecución estratégica. Comprender la demanda, mejorar la propuesta de valor y optimizar cada detalle, desde las imágenes hasta la presentación, puede marcar la diferencia entre el éxito y el fracaso. Al enfocarse en datos concretos y en las necesidades reales del mercado, es posible desarrollar una oferta atractiva y competitiva que genere resultados sostenibles.

Ganar dinero en línea nunca ha sido tan accesible como ahora con el programa Amazon Influencer. Moises Carmona, especialista en e-commerce, comparte cómo este modelo permite generar ingresos sin necesidad de invertir en inventario ni asumir grandes riesgos. Con tan solo un teléfono y un poco de creatividad, es posible alcanzar los primeros 1000 dólares en comisiones. "Amazon Influencer es una oportunidad que Amazon tiene hoy en día para hacer dinero fácil desde tu casa", afirma Moises, y explica: "Consiste en grabar videos de tus productos favoritos, los que tienes en tu casa, de 30 segundos a 2 minutos. Montas esa reseña en el listing del producto y, por cada compra que los consumidores hagan por ver ese video, vas a ganar una comisión de un 3 a un 5 por ciento, dependiendo de la categoría". Esto significa que, con una buena estrategia, la acumulación de videos puede traducirse en ingresos constantes. "Si un producto se vende dos veces al día y ganas 10 dólares de comisión, puedes ganar 300 dólares al mes por un solo video, pero imagina si tienes 100, 200, 500 o 1000 videos. Los grabas una sola vez y te dan comisiones siempre", celebra nuestro invitado. A diferencia de otros modelos de negocio en Amazon, este método permite que las ganancias sean netas. "Si generas 1000 dólares en comisión, esos 1000 dólares son completamente para ti. Ahora si ganas 1000 dólares en Private Label, tienes que restarle todos los gastos", destaca Moises. Además, no hay riesgos involucrados, porque lo peor que puede pasar es que no te aprueben desde Amazon para comenzar a hacerlo. Uno de los mitos más comunes es que para participar se necesita ser un experto en video o redes sociales. Sin embargo, Moises desmiente esta idea: "No es necesario que sepas editar, grabar videos o ser una persona tecnológica. Son bloqueos mentales que nosotros nos ponemos". De hecho, el proceso es tan sencillo que ni siquiera es obligatorio aparecer en cámara después de la aprobación inicial. "Para hacer los videos posteriores a la postulación no es obligatorio que te muestres en cámara. Puedes grabar sólo el producto", asegura. Otra gran ventaja es la posibilidad de recibir productos gratuitos. "Algunas personas eligen una categoría específica y se quedan en ella, porque luego a las marcas les interesa su perfil porque son expertos dentro del nicho, los contactan y les dan productos gratis para que hagan un review", comenta nuestro especialista. Además, dentro de Amazon existe un sistema que conecta a los creadores de contenido con las marcas, facilitando aún más estas oportunidades: "Cuando una marca lanza un producto en la plataforma le cuesta conseguir reviews. Entonces a las marcas les conviene contactar a esos creadores de contenido. Y también puedes entrar tú a Amazon Influencer y pedir productos a ciertas marcas para que te los envíen y los puedas probar". La clave del éxito en este modelo es la consistencia. Moises recomienda subir contenido de manera regular para maximizar los ingresos: "Yo hago cinco videos al día, porque lo más importante es la disciplina, seguir montando videos para que en el futuro tengas miles de videos publicados. Imagina lo que esos videos te pueden devolver en comisiones. Grabar sólo cinco videos a mí me tarda media hora". Para ser parte de este programa, Amazon solía requerir solo 200 seguidores en redes sociales, pero ahora se ha elevado el umbral a 5,000 o 10,000 seguidores. No obstante, hay estrategias para alcanzar este requisito. "Puedes colocar publicidad en tus cuentas de redes sociales para aumentar tus seguidores", aconseja Moises. A pesar de que el contenido en español para Amazon Influencer es poco común –hasta ahora sólo en México, Moises alienta a intentarlo sin miedo: "No importa cómo sea tu acento, sólo inténtalo. Puedes mostrar sólo el producto, generar un texto en inglés con ChatGPT y sencillamente leerlo mientras estás grabando". Eso sí, advierte que el uso de voces generadas por Inteligencia Artificial no es una opción viable, ya que Amazon puede detectar si un robot está hablando y bloquear la cuenta. Amazon Influencer es una alternativa interesante para quienes buscan ingresos pasivos sin necesidad de invertir grandes cantidades de dinero. Con dedicación, creatividad y estrategia, es posible aprovechar esta oportunidad para generar comisiones de manera constante, convirtiendo un simple video en una fuente recurrente de ingresos.

How can private label merchandise help elevate your brand? We dive into the essence of private labels, discussing how businesses can source high-quality materials that ensures top-notch merchandise to their customers, setting them apart from generic market options.

Private label CPG is growing…and fast! Many will point to continued inflation as the major support for consumers switching to private-label alternatives, but what if it stems from a grocery retail CAPEX investment theme that started a decade earlier? Consider the digitalization of supermarkets…facial recognition cameras, AI-powered smart carts, smartphone apps, and I could keep going, but harnessing this Big Data can certainly help grocers create better private label products. So, yes…grocery retailers have been investing heavily into private label product innovation, brand development, and incremental store placement. But what's feeding those new private labels (like Walmart's bettergoods) that look, taste, and are positioned more like trendy emerging CPG brands…are those supermarkets now having access a mountain of new valuable consumer data points. And to be completely honest…that should scare the hell out of CPG brands.

Are we at a point that we have reached a new echelon, where in the world of retail media we should be discussing a major existential threat to brands…private label?Over the past three years, retailer private label consumer packaged goods (CPG) have seen significant growth, accelerated by changing consumer behavior and economic pressures.What has happened to the share of wallet/stomach that private label commands in the US market?Has private label been changing its game of late in terms of being a credible national brand alternative and if so, how?With this as the backdrop and as retail media networks continue to push to unlock more brand spend, does the industry need to  evolve to bring the retail merchants and the media sellers closer together?What must the brand manufacturers do in collaboration or negotiation with their retail customers to realign that balance of power with private label and the value proposition that each player in the shopper ecosystem delivers?

Our U.S. Retail Analyst Simeon Gutman discusses shoppers' embrace of a private labels super cycle and how changing consumer behavior could fundamentally change grocery and discount retailers.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Simeon Gutman, Morgan Stanley's US Hardlines, Broadlines and Food Retail Analyst. Today, we'll talk about a fascinating shift in the retail landscape: the rise of private label products and what this could mean for the future of grocery and discount retailers.It's Thursday, December 12, at 10am in New York.Think about your recent trip to your favorite grocery store. As you reached towards the shelves for your preferred brand of mayonnaise, frozen pizza, or bread, you may have noticed that more and more shelves are stocked with store-brand products. Products that not only match the quality of national brands but often exceed it. This isn't just a minor trend. We estimate private label sales growth will accelerate by 40 per cent to reach $462 billion by 2030. An expansion that will redefine market dynamics significantly.In essence, we think the private label grocery market is on the cusp of a super cycle. This super cycle is a by-product of COVID-era shifts in the way that customers shop and how retailers invest into this trend. At the same time, private label groceries reflect the rise of mega platforms, which are taking ever greater consumer wallet share and are innovating more than ever before.When you look at macro drivers, US consumers have been navigating a difficult post-COVID environment. While inflation is currently moderating, overall food prices remain 30-34 per cent above their 2018 levels. Most consumers are spending more on food at home vs. food away from home, which is a positive catalyst for private label acceleration. Further, consumers are willing to substitute lower priced goods, especially groceries, and these categories present a growth opportunity for private labels. This is the tipping point that we're talking about. High costs, recent innovation, and innovation like we've never seen before – with the rise of these mega platforms, this industry looks like it's ripe for disruption.The market views private label penetration as a slow, gradual, and ongoing event. But our work challenges this premise. We believe the rate of change in private label growth will accelerate substantially over the next few years. We think private label products will grow at double the rate of the overall grocery market bringing private label market penetration from about 19 per cent in 2023 to about 23 per cent by 2030.This growth is not just about stocking up the shelves. It's about changing consumer perceptions and behavior. Consumers increasingly see private labels as viable alternatives to national brands because they often offer better value and innovation. From healthier ingredients, like no more seed oils, to organic products that you had no idea they can produce, to premium products like frozen lobster ravioli to mushroom and truffle pizza. There are a couple of retailers in the US that are all private label and they are among the fastest growing ones, taking away the stigma of what private label products could mean.So what does this mean for the broader retail and consumer packaged good industries? For grocers and discounters with already strong private label offerings, this shift presents a significant opportunity for growth. It's also accretive to margins. On the flip side, traditional food companies might face increased competition. These companies have historically relied on brand superiority. But as private label gains market share – particularly in food categories – these national brands could see a hit to their gross profit growth, which could fall from 3 per cent historically to about 2 per cent. And while household and personal care categories have seen some resilience against private label encroachment, the ongoing economic pressures and shifts in consumer spending habits could challenge the status quo.Looking ahead, the rise of private labels could lead to a reevaluation of what brands mean to consumers. As private label becomes synonymous with quality and value, we may see a new era in which traditional brand loyalty becomes less significant compared to product quality and cost-effectiveness.Thanks for listening.

There's more to a wine label than meets the eye. Most of us buy wine in the store and when we do, we picture that bottle coming from a small winery nestled among the vines somewhere in wine country.But did you know a growing chunk of popular labels don't have their own winery or winemaking team? They are private label wines contracted out to a third party winery who supplies the grapes, the winemaking team and creates a company's vintage vision. A great example that most of us can relate to is Costco's Kirkland Brand or Trader Joe's wine. We're exploring the world of private label wines with one of the best in the business. Alison Crowe is Vice President of winemaking at Plata Wine Partners and she helps create more than 100 labels for clients near and far. If you've never heard the term private label when it comes to wine, you may be surprised to learn that many of the most popular wine brands are made by talented winemakers whose names or wineries are not on the label. In fact, Alison says she translates the beauty of a vineyard through the medium of wine. We'll set the record straight on how private label wines are made with quality, even sustainably sourced grapes. And we'll take a deeper dive into this very important part of the wine business.

The popularity of private-label food and beverage products continues to grow, and it's being driven by a variety of factors from inflation over the years to continued price pressure to the influence of the Gen Z shopper.

They also give insights on how to cater products to Gen Z consumers, as well as strategies for processors and retailers to take advantage and strike while the iron remains hot.

We spend a lot of time in our community and our our podcast talking about the Amazon selling model that is used by virtually all of the new Amazon sellers in our community.   That strategy of course is called the "Amazon Replens" system - the system that teaches you how to identify and fill the underserved shelf space at Amazon's 100's of warehouses (as taught in the ProvenAmazonCourse.com course)   Today's new podcast episode however is a little different because we talk to a coach on our team who started out as a struggling new seller making many mistakes, and then he began to succeed with the replens system after finding our community.   From there though he successfully moved on to other models such as Bundles and Private Label and even the "agency" model (sometimes called PPP in our community - or "Proven Product Partnering" - and those more advanced models are the heart of the discussion today.   We love bringing you real stories from real students and leaders in our community who are doing great things, and today is another inspirational episode!   If you'd like to have a conversation with our team about your e-commerce business and see which of our products or services, might help you get where you are trying to go faster, schedule a call with us.
