In this episode of Business Lunch, Roland Frasier and Ryan Deiss explain how the classic four-stage buying journey has collapsed into one moment—and why trust is the lid that keeps prospects “popping” in your pot. They unpack three forms of trust—Identity, Competence, and Proximity—with sharp wins and public flops (Nike, Sephora, Peloton, DSW, Starbucks, Apple, United). You'll get simple creative frameworks to turn short-form content into instant, in-channel conversions and a 14-day sprint to prove it on a small budget.Highlights“It's not a funnel anymore—it's a popcorn popper. Your audience are kernels heating at different speeds. Trust is the lid that keeps them popping for you.”“Competence trust means the brand ‘gets me'—often better than I can describe myself.”“Employees outperform celebrities for reach and credibility—because most buyers are employees.”“Frictionless is forgettable. Add desirable friction that helps buyers name their pain and act.”“If you can't pivot your model, bolt trust into your media: mirror-micro-media, why-what-where, people-place-proof.”Mentioned in This EpisodeThree Trust Types (MAP mnemonic):M – Identity trust: Mirror → Micro → MediaA – Competence trust: “Answer” with Why → What → WhereP – Proximity trust: People → Place → ProofCompetence wins & misses: Nike's “Why do it?” repositioning; Sephora tutorials lifting AOV; Peloton's 2019 holiday ad backlash.Proximity plays: DSW AR try-ons; Starbucks barista TikToks; Apple retail specialists; cautionary tale—United Airlines viral incidents.Localization tactics: regional currency/sites, geo-specific visuals (city skylines), and micro-influencers by market.KPI effects: higher AOV/retention/loyalty from competence; higher LTV from proximity; employee posts driving outsized reach.Timestamps00:00 – The collapsed customer journey: from funnel to popcorn popper (trust as the lid)04:00 – Recap: Identity trust (mirror, micro, media)—and why episodes stand alone but compound07:30 – Competence trust: the brand that “gets me” (Nike shift, Sephora demos) + Peloton misread14:20 – Framework for competence: Why → What → Where (myth-bust, demo, direct CTA)17:30 – Example: 30-sec tax advisory myth-buster → LinkedIn/Reels → consult link → track AOV20:10 – Proximity trust: employees, in-place context, show real proof (DSW AR, Starbucks, Apple)24:10 – Employee content > celebrity polish; make it authentic, even shot on phone26:00 – 14-day Trust Sprint and MAP recap; why proximity is overlooked yet most scalableTakeaways for OperatorsStop chasing linear funnels; engineer trust in-channel so action can happen immediately.Use Why → What → Where to collapse steps: name the pain, show the fix, drop the link.Turn staff into a media network: People → Place → Proof with incentives and simple tracking.Localize by currency, domains, visuals, accents, micro-influencers—it quietly multiplies conversion.Run a 14-day sprint: baseline CAC/AOV → recruit 3 customers + 3 insiders → record shorts →...

This special 5th anniversary episode of the Remarkable Retail podcast marks a milestone: five years of insights, disruption, and conversations with the world's most innovative retail thinkers. We reflect on the pod's origin story during the early COVID lockdowns, tracing its evolution from Steve's book Remarkable Retail: How to Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption into an industry-leading show featuring CEOs, founders, and thought leaders shaping global commerce. They share highlights from an impressive guest roster, including Scott Galloway (whose episode remains the most downloaded in the show's history), Artemis Patrick of Sephora, Hal Lawton of Tractor Supply, Chris Nicholas of Sam's Club, Joe Kudla of Vuori, and Neil Blumenthal of Warby Parker. Each clip showcases the powerful themes of customer centricity, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of remarkability.The centerpiece of the episode is a deep and engaging conversation with Seth Godin, returning for his sixth visit. Seth—bestselling author of classics including Purple Cow—first inspired the very language of “remarkability” in Steve's book and the podcast itself. Here, Seth reflects on why being remarkable matters more than ever in an era where “average is dead.” He warns leaders that chasing efficiency or “suck less” strategies won't suffice; brands must create conditions where customers want to talk about them. He draws a sharp distinction between simply being “better” through incremental improvements and being truly remarkable in ways that spark conversation, loyalty, and cultural resonance.Seth also delves into the impact of AI as the biggest societal shift since electricity. Rather than reducing costs by outsourcing tasks, he urges retailers to harness AI to enable new projects and creative possibilities. He illustrates this with his latest Kickstarter project—AI-driven card decks designed to spark learning, decision-making, and storytelling. For Seth, experimentation and accessible tools are the gateway to innovation, and he emphasizes that risk-taking in the AI era costs little but delivers exponential learning.Together, Michael, Steve, and Seth explore enduring themes: knowing who it's for and what it's for, the value of continuous improvement, and why shunning non-believers is essential to staying authentic. About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers. He is the bestselling authro of two books: Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption and Remarkable Retail: How To Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption.

The fear of “bothering” donors has nonprofits sending fewer emails than Sephora sends about mascara. And you know what that means? Fewer emails = fewer donations.In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on why silence in your donor's inbox is way more damaging than showing up with short, story-driven emails. I'll tell you why Patagonia, Old Navy, and Jimmy John's can email you daily without you hitting unsubscribe, and why nonprofits should stop hiding behind once-a-quarter newsletters that nobody reads (hello, donor amnesia). This conversation is all about making email fun again and turning it into your #1 fundraising engine. If you're tired of being ghosted by donors, I'll show you how to stay top of mind, raise more money, and build genuine relationships… all from your inbox.Topics:Why “fewer emails” is a myth that's keeping your nonprofit brokeDonor psychology: why silence feels worse than consistent outreachWhat nonprofits can learn from Sephora, Old Navy, and Jimmy John'sHow one org went from $1,600 → $9,000 by shifting their email strategyThe difference between transactional emails (tax receipts) and true connectionWhy good emails build trust while quarterly newsletters build amnesiaHow to create fundraising campaigns that feel like conversationsFor a full list of links and resources mentioned in this episode, click here.Bloomerang is the complete donor, volunteer, and fundraising management solution that helps thousands of nonprofits deliver a better giving experience and create sustainable, thriving organizations.

From kindergarten breathwork sessions with stuffed animals to navigating peer pressure around snacks and Sephora, Camila shares her unfiltered perspective on wellness at school, with friends, and at home.We dive into why she chose to go gluten and dairy free, how she handles feeling “different” when her lunchbox doesn't match her friends', and why listening to your body matters at any age.Camila Berger is a 10-year-old student, jiu-jitsu enthusiast, and budding wellness advocate learning that health starts with everyday choices.What's Discussed:(00:01) Learning Wellness at Home: Food, Oils & Breathwork(08:17) Teaching Kids to Make Healthy Choices Early(18:57) Family Wellness Adventures & Gluten-Free Living(22:18) A 10-Year-Old's Skincare Struggles & Solutions(26:49) Tech Boundaries, Social Media & Peer Pressure(32:31) Listening to Your Body & Trusting Your InstinctsThank You to Our Sponsors:Sign up for The Well Drop NewsletterFind out more about Amber Berger: Website: www.thewelldrop.com Instagram: www.instagram.com/thewelldrop
What happens when you get a neurodivergent, a dopamine dissident and a socio demographic myth buster riding the boundaries of the media and marketing business on the mics together? We’ve done just that after The Media Federation’s (MFA) recent annual conference produced an eclectic mix of keynotes and speakers - the conversation and data should challenge long-held assumptions about what makes us tick as marketers, people and consumers. Firstly, some busted myths: Gen Z can’t get on the property ladder? Actually 40 per cent of under 30s in Australia own their own house, per Slingshot Media’s Flo Gleeson-Cook’s data deep dive, which means banks may be doing their media targeting all wrong. Luxury brands should target those with money in Sydney’s Eastern suburbs? Wrong. Sydney’s “westies” have more ready cash to spend and less debt. Meanwhile, personal care brands targeting women are missing 40 per cent of their market - blokes. Sephora and Mecca take note. But there were some myths Gleeson-Cook couldn’t bust – MAFS’ audience skew being one. OMD strategy chief Rob Frost didn’t get diagnosed with ADHD and autism until he was 33. Before then he’d been exhausted trying to keep up with social norms – preparing for social conversations in the shower, writing down jokes on his phone, telling himself in major pitches to focus on what people were saying so hard that he hadn’t taken in a word being said. Now he’s harnessing divergence – and bringing it to work. “There’s a Harvard Business Review study that shows that teams are 30 per cent more productive when they're neurodiverse,” per Frost. But it’s also critical for bosses to create environments for neurodiverse people to thrive – creative, breakthrough thinking can surge but they are way more likely to die early. “If you have ADHD, you are significantly more likely to die of suicide, to end up in prison,” says Frost. “Your life expectancy is lower than someone who smokes 20 cigarettes a day for their whole life … because your brain is constantly searching and striving and trying to find that element that gets you that little dopamine hit and that little reward.” Hearts & Science’s Peita Pacey reckons the media industry with its need for creative and lateral thinking is close to 30 per cent neurodiverse, which is why “trying to fit everyone into one box” in terms of working patterns is “a really terrible idea”. But she got a muffled, collective groan from MFA’s heaving younger contingent when she suggested as little as 30 minutes a day of scrolling short form video on social media has the same negative physical impacts as three glasses of alcohol. The average Australian under 40 is now using their phone 7 hours a day, she said, creating massive cortisol and dopamine spikes, increasing heart rates and creating “basically a hot mess that is aging us significantly”. But Pacey says phone addiction is a problem for business leaders as it is for the rank and file, because our brains are trained to be constantly reactive to the latest ping, rather than fresh thinking. “If your brain is being trained to be reactive, that means that all you're using is your experience and what you've done before. You're not actually generating new ideas. You're not being expansive in your thinking,” says Pacey. “And of course, these people are the ones who are most connected to their phones, because the expectation is that you're available at all times.” But she says there is a solution to “stopping the brain rot”: Just don’t look at your phone for the first hour of every day. “That hour period regulates your dopamine system for the next 24 hours.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
insta : laboite2chocolat ou la_boitedechocolatPour ce 3eme épisode de cette saison on va parler de la suite de Thor avec son 3eme opus, à savoir Thor Ragnarok.Alors ça raconte quoi au juste ? Et bien déjà qu'ils ont changés la D.A de Thor, et que maintenant au lieu d'être lisse et fade, bin il est cool et marrant, et rien que pour ça, en vrai, merci !Sinon pour le reste on va découvrir que Thor - en plus d'avoir un vrai faux traitre en guise de frère - il a à présent une frangine !Pis la sista, Hela de son petit blaze, c'est pas n'importe qui !C'est le genre de personne qui, lorsque tu lui demande "T'es venue comment toi ?", à tendance à te répondre cash "En colère".Pis en plus de ça Hela, c'est pas la stagiaire du coin, non, elle c'est LA déesse la mort !Et ça, tu le crame à des kilomètres, son outfit ? Black eyeliner niveau Sephora, attitude de meuf qui renvoie des sextos à ton mec, en plus de ça lorsqu'elle débarque, elle perd pas de temps : Elle détruit Mjolnir d'une seule main comme si c'était un plug Aliexpress, donc autant te dire que la virilité de Thor en prend pour son grade, et après balance les deux frangins à Poubelle City, mais Marvel préfère l'appeler la planète Sakaar.Une planète gérée par Jeff Goldblum sous coke, qui fait des soirées fluo façon boite gay berlinoise. Thor est forcé de devenir gladiateur, et vous ne devinerez jamais qui va être son adversaire ! Bah c'est Hulk, en slip de cuir, qui vit sa meilleure vie d'ailleurs, à casser des gueules dans des arènes. Effet de surprise zéro vu que c'est dans la bande annonce, et ça, c'est bien dommage.Au passage, on découvre Valkyrie, alcoolique professionnelle, qui finit par s'associer à Thor pour retourner sur Asgard afin de sauver le peuple Asgardien d'Hela qui est bien décidée à foutre le souk sans que tout le monde ne soit cor-da.Ah oui, j'oubliais... On apprend aussi que Thor, dieu du tonnerre donc, peut se faire paralyser par... un Taser, pis aussi que c'est une bonne personne à la fin parce que : Gentil n'a qu'un oeil.D'ou vient cette expression ?Et bien vu que tu as fait l'effort de lire, je te la donne :Selon une réponse publiée sur le site de l'Académie française (donc normalement c'est pas des peintres), l'expression Gentil n'a qu'un œil signifie que les personnes trop gentilles sont incapables de déceler les défauts des autres et ne voient que leurs qualités. Ne voyant qu'à moitié, on ne leur attribue qu'un œil.Alors bon, après on peut aussi se souvenir que Lepen n'avait qu'un seul oeil aussi, donc bon, tout est relatif hein...Enfin voilà, Thor 3 c'est un mélange de stand-up cosmique, de rave party avec Jeff Goldblum, et de “ma sœur est une goth qui veut buter le monde”.Et pour parler de ce film, nous retrouvons Thomas, Charlie et Pierre.N'hésitez pas d'ailleurs à nous LAISSER DES COMMENTAIRES ET AUSSI DES BONNES ETOILES (déjà parce qu'on est des gens cool), et puis aussi suggérez nous des films, on les fera avec plaisir.VOUS ETES DE PLUS EN PLUS NOMBREUX, SOYEZ DE MOINS EN MOINS TIMIDE voici notre mail pour toutes suggestions / propositions de films : laboitedechocolatmail@gmail.com Hébergé par Acast.

Lauren and Josh explore the incredible turnaround of Dancing With the Stars (which is seeing a huge ratings spike thanks to TikTok). Related: TikTok continues its will-they, won't-they journey into US spinoff territory. We have to ask: will the rest of the world follow? Then, a turn to creator commerce as Sephora, Condé Nast, and Best Buy are all launching their own "creator storefronts," giving creators a direct way to curate and sell products. Is this the next evolution of affiliate marketing or just a passing trend? Finally: a discourse on the staggering growth of NFL viewership and how the league is dominating not just TV screens, but second screens too. We discuss why more fans than ever are shopping, betting, and scrolling while watching the game.Creator Upload is your creator economy podcast, hosted by Lauren Schnipper and Joshua Cohen.00:00 Introduction00:27 How TikTok Made Dancing With the Stars Cool Again05:29 The Charli D'Amelio Effect09:22 Why the DWTS and TikTok Partnership is So Organic14:15 The Inevitable TikTok Sale16:14 Will the World Adopt a US-Only TikTok?22:18 Creator Storefronts Come to Sephora & Condé Nast25:57 Is the Creator Storefront Trend Here to Stay?31:00 UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD: NFL Viewership is Dominating33:25 The Rise of the Second Screen Fan36:56 UPLOAD/DOWNLOAD: The Summer I Turned Pretty38:48 OutroFollow Lauren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/schnipper/Follow Josh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuajcohen/Original music by London Bridge: https://www.instagram.com/londonbridgemusic/Edited and produced by Adam Conner: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adamonbrand

Executive coach Angela Bennett knows a thing or two about the unique needs of beauty and wellness industry leaders. She spent more than two decades working across L'Oréal and Estee Lauder brands like La Roche-Posay, Maybelline and Clinique in roles like vice president, general manager and svp of talent acquisition. "The subjective nature of [the beauty industry] requires an art of balancing data points, intuition and conviction [while] becoming your own leader to navigate the decisions that need to be made on a daily basis," Bennett said. But today, Bennett is part of a growing number of certified professional executive coaches who help individuals and organizations to build stronger teams. She also works one-on-one with executives who need help getting to the next level in their careers. This often entails a rigorous strategy that includes reflection, learning and planning in an effort to become a better leader with more long-term career direction. Much of this process starts with developing communication skills to suit the workplace environment and culture. “Communication coaching is really going to be about developing the skills to be clear, concise, convincing and motivating, and to really master the art of what we call ‘influencing for results',” she said. “[That means] influencing others, influencing management toward making decisions on specific strategies that, as a leader, you are recommending and wanting to push through.” In today's episode of the Glossy Beauty Podcast, Bennett introduces us to the world of executive coaching and shares her top three universal tips for executives. But first, hosts Lexy Lebsack and Emily Jensen discuss the biggest beauty news of the week. First up is wellness investment news from Oura Health Oy, the makers of Oura, the wearable health tracking ring that launched in 2015. The Finnish company is reportedly closing in on a $875 million Series E investment round that will undoubtedly impact the industry. The company could soon be valued at around $11 billion. The hosts also break down the latest influx of celebrity endorsement deals including Kris Jenner for Estée Lauder-owned MAC, Leighton Meester for indie darling skin-care brand Bubble, singer Ciara as the new face of Thorne's Creatine products, Miley Cyrus for Maybelline, and Dua Lipa's new deal with pilates reformer company Frame Fitness. Lebsack and Jensen also unpack Hailey Bieber's splashy Rhode launch with Sephora, which brought in $10 million in sales in just two days, according to Yipit, an alternative data provider and analytics firm that utilizes web and in-store receipt data. Finally, the duo discuss the closure of Kim Kardashian's 3-year-old skincare line, SKKN by Kim, including Coty's $71.1 milliones loss from its 2021 investment in the now-shuttered brand.

Jordan walks us through the entire journey, from the initial idea to their "Sephora or Bust" retail strategy.

After starting as a brick-and-mortar nail salon in Los Angeles in 2013, Olive & June closed up shop in 2020, with founder and CEO Sarah Gibson Tuttle pivoting her focus to DIY manis. By November 2024, Helen of Troy had acquired the brand for $225 million in cash and a $15 million earnout subject to performance over three years. Helen of Troy's beauty portfolio also includes Drybar, Curlsmith and Hot Tools, among others. But Gibson Tuttle was intent on remaining involved in her brand's operations — operating essentially as it did prior to the acquisition, but with greater support. Now, nearly a year post-acquisition, Gibson Tuttle joins the Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss life after selling her brand, why an obsession with the customer can almost guarantee product success and how the nail category differs from other beauty categories. But first, co-hosts Sara Spruch-Feiner and Emily Jensen discuss industry news, including Sephora's announcement that it will launch its own affiliate platform, the recent acquisitions of Nudestix, Byoma and Cos Bar, and Gap's increased investment and new hires as it looks to grow its beauty offerings.

Send us a textSephora has long been recognized as a leader in prestige beauty retail. Founded in France in the late 1960s, the brand introduced its now-famous open-selling concept that allowed shoppers to browse freely and test products across brands. Something unheard of in department store beauty counters of the time. When Sephora opened its first U.S. store in New York's Soho district in 1998, the concept was still relatively unknown. “Back then, few people knew who we were, and many brands didn't want to work with us as a newcomer,” recalls Emmy Brown Berlind, Senior Vice President, General Manager of Loyalty at Sephora. “So, we really built our business on creativity, differentiation, and the belief that beauty should be fun and inclusive, and that commitment continues to shape how Sephora connects with its clients.” That philosophy of inclusivity and discovery has powered Sephora's rise into the leading prestige beauty retailer in North America, with more than 700 stores and a vibrant digital ecosystem. A critical part of that growth has been the Beauty Insider loyalty program, launched in 2007. “The launch of our Beauty Insider program was part of a key differentiation that we were able to introduce to the market which led to a lot of loyalty with our clients and continues to support the growth of the business,” Berlind explains.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has made headlines yet again with the surprise release of his new album SWAG II, which dropped at midnight on September 5, 2025. This release comes just two months after his seventh studio album SWAG arrived in July, marking his most prolific period since his 2021 project Justice. SWAG II is not a typical sequel; it's a sprawling, 44-track reissue packed with 23 bonus songs, instantly capturing attention both for its size and its blend of styles from trap to R&B and even spiritual reflection. Major outlets like Good Morning America and Elle have spotlighted the album's midnight release, while music sites note that Bieber teased its arrival with a series of Instagram posts and dramatic billboards lighting up places like Times Square and even Iceland, where much of the album was reportedly recorded.Critically, SWAG and SWAG II have reasserted Bieber's pop dominance after his brief hiatus and the blockbuster sale of his music catalog in 2023. SWAG debuted at number two on the Billboard 200, hitting nearly 200 million streams out of the gate. The lead single Daisies also arrived strong at number two on the Hot 100 and became his 27th top ten single in the US, tying him with legends like Janet Jackson. Notably, the new tracks make direct references to his family life, with Mother in You being his first song to explicitly mention his son Jack, born in August 2024. Lines about Jack and wife Hailey in songs like this have drawn fan and media attention, especially as divorce rumors have circled the couple. Bieber seems to tackle these tabloid narratives head-on with heartfelt lyrics that emphasize stability and devotion.On the public appearance front, both Justin and Hailey Bieber skipped the high-profile MTV VMAs this week, despite his Best Pop Artist nomination, instead opting to celebrate the album's release privately in New York with family. Paparazzi last spotted them together with baby Jack shortly after SWAG II's debut, and Elle reports they shared new family photos on social media, fueling the wholesome narrative.Beyond music, Bieber is publicly supporting Hailey's business as Rhode, her skincare and makeup line, launches in Sephora stores across North America. He posted about Rhode's expansion using lyrics from his new music, underscoring the crossover between his family, business, and creative life. Hailey meanwhile continues to speak openly about motherhood's impact, recently telling Vogue that Jack is her priority.No interviews have been given yet about the new albums, and speculation swirls online about a possible accompanying tour, but so far, all Bieber's statements remain strictly about music and family, as reflected in his social media and recent public outings. In short, Bieber's SWAG II era is as much about creative output as it is about family—an unmistakable shift for the pop superstar as he moves into a new chapter under a brighter, more personal spotlight.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber's name has been front and center these past few days, grabbing major headlines and fueling fan speculation. The biggest news is his surprise release of “SWAG II,” a mammoth new album unveiled just after midnight on Friday—though not without drama. According to ABC News and Good Morning America, Bieber stoked anticipation with a blitz of Instagram posts, billboards in Times Square and Atlanta, and viral teasers from Iceland, where much of this record was laid down. The album itself is a staggering effort, ranging anywhere from 23 to 44 new tracks depending on streaming platform interpretations, and features collaborations with Tems, Lil B, Bakar, Hurricane Chris, Eddie Benjamin, and even Marvin Winans and Sexyy Red. Media outlets like stupidDOPE and Y101 have been quick to point out that *SWAG II* is less about radio singles and more a streaming ecosystem, aiming squarely at today's playlist culture.The drop did not go completely smoothly. Virgin Radio hosts recounted how Bieber's own social media posts frantically documented his frustration as the album failed to show up at the promised time, with Bieber posting, refreshing, and even blaming upload delays on his own team rather than the streaming services. Ultimately, fans got the album—just hours late.The response online has been pure Bieber: huge streaming numbers, heated discussions about his evolving style, and a fresh wave of attention on his personal life. People magazine and Economic Times have highlighted Bieber's social media support for his wife, Hailey Bieber, whose Rhode skincare launch at Sephora brought the couple into joint spotlight. Bieber not only shared Rhode news with playful references to his song “Go Baby” but also dedicated tracks and heartfelt captions in support of Hailey's brand, underlining that his home life is as public as his musical career right now.Outside the studio and social feeds, public appearances around New York have sparked speculation and concern among fans. According to The Hollywood Gossip and IMDb, some fans have voiced worries about Bieber's physical appearance, and photos from these outings have launched a wave of commentary online—though there's no verified medical news or official statements to back up the chatter. Sites like SuperFriend acknowledge the rumor mills but confirm nothing substantial, leaving the conversation squarely in the realm of fan gossip for now.All of this is unfolding amidst Bieber's ongoing business ventures. Forbes and The Star Worths have reported that his real estate portfolio—luxury estates in Los Angeles and Beverly Hills—remains steady, and NetEase Cloud Music ranks him as its most-streamed Western artist, reflecting his sustained commercial clout. For now, the combination of album release spectacle, candid Instagram moments, viral family support, and public scrutiny make this one of the more biographically significant periods in Bieber's recent history. The headlines say it all: Bieber is pushing boundaries, keeping fans guessing, and staying firmly in the center of pop culture conversation.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

The beauty industry had an eventful summer marked by changing retailer strategies, stark revenue tumbles and a flurry of pricey acquisitions. In this special episode of The Glossy Beauty Podcast, reporters Lexy Lebsack, Emily Jensen and Sara Spruch-Feiner walk through the stories that defined the season. This includes strategy shifts within retailers like Sephora, Ulta Beauty and Target, plus a look at disappointing revenue at conglomerates Shiseido and Estée Lauder Companies. The team also discusses the biggest acquisitions of the season — including Rhode, Dr. Squatch, Space NK and Touchland — and the tariff-related topics we're watching as fall approaches. To start (0:53), Glossy's beauty team digs into the industry's biggest summer investments, led by E.l.f. Beauty's May purchase of Hailey Bieber's Rhode for $1 billion. The team also walks through CPG company Church & Dwight's $700 million purchase of trendy hand sanitizer brand Touchland in May and Unilever's June purchase of digitally-native men's care brand Dr. Squatch for $1.5 billion. Beauty's top specialty retailers also had big summers. Sephora (8:37) is leaning deeper into a tried-and-true brand launch playbook: the celebrity artist. In the past few weeks, the retailer has rolled out new lines from celebrity makeup artists Hung Vanngo and Mary Phillips, plus hairstylist Chris McMillian. Meanwhile, Ulta Beauty (18:17) had a whirlwind summer as new CEO Kecia Steelman executed her “Ulta Unleashed” comeback plan. Steelman, who was appointed CEO in January after more than a decade with the company, announced her plan in March as a response to the company's 1.9% year-over-year holiday sales tumble. Glossy's team unpacks all the changes, including the acquisition of U.K. retailer Space NK, international expansion into Mexico and the Middle East, and the end of Ulta's shop-in-shop with Target. Finally (25:37), Glossy's team walks through can't-miss beauty conglomerate news: LVMH's splashy Louis Vuitton Beauté launch and Shiseido's sales tumble caused by Drunk Elephant's poor performance, plus turbulence at Waldencast and Estée Lauder Companies. Finally (36:27), team Glossy ends with a few autumn tariff predictions.
LIBERTY Sessions with Nada Jones | Celebrating women who do & inspiring women who can |
Annie Jackson has been a key player in the successes of the industry's most prominent beauty companies. Annie began her career at Estée Lauder, where, after six years, she was recruited to be one of the early members of the team that launched Sephora USA and Japan. Later, she took on the role of Director of Global Product Marketing for Benefit Cosmetics and, in 2011, returned to her roots in merchandising for color cosmetics at Sephora within JCPenney. Her love of beauty and quest for cleaner options led her, alongside Shashi Batra, to create Credo Beauty. As Co-founders, they shared a vision to change the way people think about what they put in and on their bodies and skin, fostering a new generation of beauty brands—natural, organic, effective, clean, and sustainable—and to pioneer the clean beauty movement. In today's episode, Nada talks with Annie about the non-traditional path that led her to the beauty industry. Annie shares her ambitious jump into adulthood when she crossed the country without the benefit of family or a degree, but found herself with a dream job at Estée Lauder. After spending time at two global brands, Annie took a break to be with her children, and later, she returned to the beauty space when an industry friend lured her back with a new vision. She recalls her initial hesitancy when her soon-to-be business partner, Shashi, pitched the idea of Credo. She quickly discovered her passion for clean beauty and an opportunity to reshape the industry by offering consumers transparency and skincare alternatives that were good for them and the planet.
