The event continues to be the go-to platform for big-box retailers, DTC shippers, grocers, manufacturers, and ecommerce brands seeking innovation and transformation in the last-mile. Key Takeaways: Home Delivery World: The Future of Fulfillment In "Home Delivery World: The Future of Fulfillment", Joe Lynch and John Beasley, General Manager of Home Delivery World, discuss he critical strategies and emerging technologies redefining the high-stakes journey from the warehouse to the consumer's front door. Laser Focus on the "Final Mile": Unlike general supply chain events like Manifest (which Joe calls the "Super Bowl of logistics"), HDW is a niche, specialized event. It focuses specifically on the journey from the warehouse to the consumer. If your business revolves around B2C delivery, middle-mile logistics, or white-glove service, this is the dedicated "world" for those specific challenges. The Delivery Team as a Brand Extension: A critical takeaway from the interview is that the delivery person is often the only physical point of contact a customer has with a brand. Whether they are a third-party contractor or a direct employee, their behavior—from wearing shoe covers to their attitude at the doorstep—can either solidify customer loyalty or ruin a multi-thousand dollar purchase in the "last 50 feet." Rapid Evolution of Delivery Technology: The "Future of Fulfillment" isn't just a buzzword; it's actively being deployed. The podcast highlights the shift from experimental to practical use of: Drones: Solving issues like "porch pirates" by delivering to backyards. Robotics & Autonomous Vans: Navigating the transition from diesel to electric and automated fleets. Inventory AI: Managing complex stock levels across multiple social commerce channels like TikTok and Instagram. Logistics as a Competitive Business Strategy: Logistics is no longer just a back-office cost; for ecommerce companies, it can represent up to 20% of revenue. The interview emphasizes that "free shipping" is a strategic business choice, not a logistical reality. Companies must attend these events to find regional carriers that offer better rates or services than national giants like UPS or FedEx. Managing Consumer Expectations: Unlike B2B deliveries, home consumers are not industry pros; they have extreme expectations and often want products almost the moment they hit "order." This necessitates a shift from traditional bulk shipping toward highly strategic inventory placement to ensure seamless same-day or next-day delivery. The Rise of Big & Bulky White-Glove Service: Fulfillment is moving beyond small parcels. A significant portion of HDW is dedicated to "Big and Bulky" items (like Pelotons, sofas, or outdoor fireplaces). These require specialized equipment—such as pallets with handheld brakes for steep driveways—and specialized services like in-home assembly, which are becoming major revenue drivers for retailers like Wayfair. Education Through a Diverse Ecosystem: The event serves as a massive "live classroom" where 200+ industry leaders from brands like Wayfair, Ulta Beauty, and Albertsons share what worked and what failed. It bridges the gap between massive "big dogs" (JB Hunt, Maersk, Amazon) and three-year-old startups, fostering a community where the most important connections happen between the shippers and the solution providers.

Retail is an industry built on people, emotion and constant reinvention, and few leaders embody that reality more fully than Ulta Beauty President and CEO Kecia Steelman.

Meet your customer where they want to shop. On the latest episode of the Omnichannel Marketer, I had the pleasure of talking with Sarah McNamara, Executive Vice President & General Manager at Peter Thomas Roth Clinical Skin Care and Naturally Serious Skin.Sarah is a beauty industry veteran, having worked at Unilever, L'Oreal, and grew her own beauty brand, Miracle Skin Transformer to $35M in revenue before selling it.‍Now she oversees Peter Thomas Roth.‍Peter Thomas Roth started in a doctor's office, but is now a retail powerhouse. It was one of the first brands to launch with Sephora when it came to the US market, and also is present in Sephora locations around the world. Other key channels for Peter Thomas Roth are Ulta Beauty, Amazon, and QVC. Sarah's philosophy is that you need to be where the customer is. ‍That is highly dependent on demographics. ‍PTR is a legacy brand that historically skews to an older demographic.‍So retail and QVC are big channels for them. ‍Each channel has a unique offering for the demographic that frequents it. ‍And the spread in Ulta is very different from Sephora. ‍She loves department stores herself, but sees it as a shrinking business. ‍Beauty is constantly evolving and experiencing unprecedented digital change. ‍As Sarah says, “You snooze, you lose.” ‍To that end, PTR also has a DTC presence and is active on social media to cater to some Gen X, Z, and even Alpha customers. ‍Her team is actively tinkering with Tiktok shops. ‍She was also relatively early to Amazon, compared to Clinique, another legacy brand that only launched on Amazon a few weeks ago.‍Sarah views the DTC site as a window into the brand and is in midst of an exciting website revamp going live in August. ‍The PTR website serves loyalists, but she also realizes that every channel has its loyalists. “Some people really just want to buy on Amazon. Others only at Sephora.”‍At the end of the day, Sarah shares that good marketing is about “understanding where your customers are and making it easy for them to buy in those channels.”‍Thanks Sarah for sharing your experience and insights.

Ulta Beauty is doubling down on the wellness category. “We've been on the journey with wellness since 2021 when we launched the wellness shop at Ulta Beauty, and we've learned so much about the category,” Laura Beres, vp of wellness at Ulta Beauty, told Glossy. “Wellness continues to grow in the market, and importantly, our guests just continue to demand more of it. … This is really an evolution of the Wellness Shop.” Launching next week, the retailer is rolling out a pilot program called “Wellness by Ulta Beauty,” a shop-in-shop boutique concept piloted in four U.S. stores. It will include an education-focused wall, gondolas, end caps and a sampling table, all staffed by specially trained wellness advisors. “This is much larger [than our existing Wellness Shop]: It'll be about 475 square feet in the store, which is a significant experience [for Ulta]. And it will have some space for guests to be able to really explore and navigate in a way that gives them that sense of calm and peace throughout the store,” Beres said. The boutiques will be located in Columbus, Ohio; Short Pump, Virginia; Peabody, Massachusetts; and Naperville, Illinois. Beres joined the Glossy Beauty Podcast to discuss the launch, how brands can participate, and what's coming next for Ulta Beauty's continued wellness expansion. Listen in now, then learn more in Glossy's latest Ulta Strategies story on the launch.

Dana Roberts spent years watching fifth-grade girls panic through their first periods with ill-fitting products and no preparation. The period care aisle hadn't changed in decades. Same brands. Same sizing that was never designed for a 10-year-old's body. When she pitched the idea to her god-sister, Dr. Monica Williams, she got a polite brush-off. Years later, Monica's own daughter started showing signs of puberty, and suddenly the problem wasn't theoretical anymore.What followed was a brutal education in bootstrapping: churning through agencies, surviving iOS 14.5, and funding an entire company through pitch competitions because traditional VCs wouldn't write checks. Last year, a three-minute pitch won them $1 million from Pharrell Williams. Then Ulta told them to change their name if they wanted shelf space. They did it in 90 days.Now Scarlet by RedDrop is in almost 400 stores trying to fix something the industry ignored for generations. We talked about all of it, including the part where Monica says she wishes she'd never bootstrapped at all.SPONSORSSwym - Wishlists, Back in Stock alerts, & moregetswym.com/kurtCleverific - Smart order editing for Shopifycleverific.comZipify - Build high-converting sales funnelszipify.com/KURTLINKSScarlet by RedDrop: tryreddrop.comUlta product page: ulta.com/brand/scarlet-by-reddropBlack Ambition Prize: blackambitionprize.comKlaviyo: klaviyo.comSmart Marketer: smartmarketer.comWORK WITH KURTApply for Shopify Helpethercycle.com/applySee Our Resultsethercycle.com/workFree Newsletterkurtelster.comThe Unofficial Shopify Podcast is hosted by Kurt Elster and explores the stories behind successful Shopify stores.

In the third installment of her annual "Comparing Walmart and Target No Longer Makes Sense" series, Carol Spieckerman examines why the gap between these two retailers has never been wider—or more illuminating about retail's future. With both companies navigating CEO transitions and knee-deep in the holiday season, Carol unpacks how Walmart has evolved into a platform powerhouse while Target grapples with fundamental retail challenges. The comparison may make less sense than ever, but that's exactly what makes it essential listening to understand where retail is headed in 2026 and beyond.Key TakeawaysPlatform vs. Retailer: Why Walmart's diversification strategy is rewriting retail's rules – Walmart's advertising and membership businesses now represent one-third of consolidated operating income, transforming "diversify or die" from a catchphrase into a survival strategy. Meanwhile, Target's struggling to master basic retail blocking and tackling as its Ulta Beauty partnership heads for the exit.The AI and automation divide: How technology is creating an unbridgeable competitive moat – From Walmart's ChatGPT partnership that embeds shopping into daily decision-making to their automated fulfillment centers handling 50% of e-commerce volume, Carol explores how Walmart is building infrastructure for tomorrow while Target's technology goals remain aspirations.Every income cohort: Why Walmart's high-low strategy is crushing Target's traditional strongholds – Carol dissects how Walmart is gaining share across all income levels, as customers pay premiums for the privilege of expedited delivery, while Target is celebrating in-stock improvements as achievements rather than table stakes.Leadership tells all: What CEO transitions reveal about retail confidence vs. crisis – Carol examines the wildly divergent leadership communication and succession planning strategies, from Doug McMillon's "aggressive humility" and smooth handoff to John Furner to Brian Cornell's extended farewell tour and Michael Fiddelke's risky opening moves.Comparing Walmart and Target reveals a fundamental truth about modern retail: you're either building the platform or paying rent to someone who is. Walmart has become retail's operating system—monetizing traffic through advertising, memberships, marketplace commissions, and fulfillment services—while Target remains trapped in traditional retail's margin-crushing cycle. The irony? Every challenge Target faces has become a Walmart profit center. As retail heads into 2026, the question isn't whether Walmart will keep winning, but whether anyone can build an alternative platform fast enough to matter.Want to be a guest on Spieckerman Speaks Retail?

They also run through the cultural openings you can't miss – including Abu Dhabi's Natural History Museum – the latest celebrity chatter, and the broader Ozempic/body-positivity conversation.

In January, Kecia Steelman became one of the most powerful executives in beauty.  After more than a decade at Ulta Beauty in positions like COO and head of international, she stepped into the president and CEO role with an uphill battle ahead of her.  That's because sales at Ulta tumbled during the 2020 pandemic, and despite an uptick in 2021, year-over-year sales had been steadily falling for nearly three years. She took over as CEO in January, and by March, she unveiled her Ulta Beauty Unleashed comeback plan — and in just 11 months, her strategy has paid off.  As part of her vision, Steelman expanded Ulta's e-commerce and product assortment with a new online marketplace, led the acquisition of U.K. specialty beauty retailer SpaceNK, expanded internationally into Mexico and the Middle East, and shepherded a shop-in-shop breakup with Target, all while dramatically improving revenue. Sales at Ulta Beauty have been on a continuous upward swing since Steelman took over as CEO in January. In May, the retailer reported 4.5% net sales growth. This doubled to a 9.3% net sales spike, reported in August, and the company nearly tripled that growth in last month's earnings report.  Host Lexy Lebsack sat down with Steelman to unpack her first year in charge and look ahead to 2026 (16:50). But today's episode also celebrates Glossy 50, our annual award list honoring business leaders, changemakers and insiders behind the beauty, wellness and fashion industries. Steelman's interview is a special Glossy50 preview with the full list publishing next week.  But first, Lebsack is joined by co-host Emily Jensen to break down the news of the week. This includes the novel launch of a new "bedtime fragrance" from the U.K. sleep-solution company This Works. The brand is known for its pillow spray and body oil, which include ingredients such as lavender and magnesium, but this week it expanded into fine fragrance designed to be applied before bed to improve sleep. Lebsack and Jensen also discuss the newest spokesperson for Estée Lauder-owned M.A.C. Cosmetics, pop star Chappell Roan, and the mixed response from her fans online. In addition, they analyze an unexpected collaboration between The Gap and beauty brand Summer Fridays, which includes clothing but not beauty. And finally, the duo discusses the latest moves in the supplement space, including Sephora's rollback of the category from its selection, and a buzzy new launch from the co-founder and former CEO of Allbirds.

Shakira BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Shakira has been in the spotlight for several noteworthy developments over the past few days that highlight both her music career and public engagement. First, there is considerable buzz in Assam, India, where the Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma is actively working to bring Shakira to perform in Guwahati. This move aims to build on the momentum created by Post Malone's recent concert, as Assam is eager to develop its concert economy and boost tourism by attracting international superstars like Shakira. Sarma expressed strong optimism that her concert would add new vitality to the region's live music industry, following successes with previous globally renowned artists (India Today, Economic Times, Times of India). Although this is currently a government initiative to attract Shakira, no official confirmation from Shakira's camp has been reported, so her appearance remains a hopeful prospect rather than a confirmed engagement.In the United States, Shakira is gearing up for several live shows. She is scheduled for three “Up Close & Personal” concerts at Hard Rock Live in Hollywood, Florida, on December 27, 28, and 29, 2025. These shows will close out her latest “Las Mujeres Ya No Lloran World Tour,” giving fans a more intimate concert experience. Tickets for these are actively on sale, confirming that these events are definite and part of her official tour schedule (Ticketmaster, Concert Addicts, Visit Lauderdale, Vibee).Recently, Shakira experienced a tense moment on tour during a performance at Centenario Stadium, where a fan unexpectedly pulled her hair as she interacted with the audience. Though surprised, she handled the incident professionally and continued performing without interruption. This incident sparked discussion on social media regarding the safety of artists during close-contact moments in concerts, with calls for improved security measures during live events (De Ultimo Minuto).In addition to live performances, Shakira is also expanding her presence in other domains. She was present at a major Ulta Beauty event marking the brand's expansion into the Mexico market, celebrating the opening of their first store in Mexico City, alongside other notable figures. This appearance signals her growing involvement in business and international brand collaborations beyond music (Investing.com).Moreover, Shakira contributed creatively as well, having written the anthem for the animated film Zootopia 2, highlighting her ongoing influence in entertainment outside the music stage (Parade).There is no confirmed news of new music releases or other major headline controversies involving Shakira in the past few days. The most significant updates revolve around her upcoming concerts, a notable fan interaction incident, government interest in inviting her for international concerts, and her role in brand events and film music.These developments collectively reinforce Shakira's stature as a global music icon actively engaging with fans and industries worldwide while navigating the challenges and opportunities of live performance and multifaceted creative projects.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

This episode breaks down why waiting for someone to come back feels so intoxicating — and why it keeps you stuck. We unpack the psychology behind ambiguous loss, ego-driven attachment, the fantasy loops your brain clings to, and the deeper wounds waiting protects you from. If you're torn between “I hope they come back” and “God, I hope they don't,” this will give you clarity you've never had. You'll learn how to tell the difference between missing them vs. missing the validation, why waiting functions as avoidance, what “they always come back” actually means, and the exact questions to ask yourself if they do reappear. If you're tired of living in the “maybe,” this episode will hit home. Struggling in dating?

We're back in the trenches. This episode, Ryan joins Sabrina in the studio to unpack YOUR questions including “Are We Dating the Same Guy?” Facebook groups to what happens when your nervous system won't let you relax in a healthy relationship. They talk about what it actually means to trust yourself, why so many of us self-sabotage when things feel good, and how to stop creating stories in your head every time they don't text you back for a day. If you've ever said “I just feel blindsided,” or caught yourself scrolling back through screenshots trying to “decode” someone's behavior… this one's for you. Sabrina dives in on protest behavior, attachment styles, and that moment when you realize it's not about them. It's about your nervous system trying to protect you. If you keep finding yourself in relationships that start fast and end the same way, you're not broken. Your body just learned that fast feels safe. The Art of Going Slow is my new 4-week live program starting November 20. Together, we'll build the tools that help you stay calm, grounded, and connected while dating, without losing yourself in the process. Doors close November 18.

In this week's episode, Sabrina breaks down how attachment wounds can disguise themselves as “gut feelings” and why instinct often gets drowned out by anxious urgency. Sabrina walks through real examples as she uncovers how familiar patterns can trick your nervous system into calling danger “love,” and unpacks how old trauma keeps you choosing pain over safety. Sabrina shares the tools she uses to slow the spiral, track the truth, and retrain her intuition so it actually protects her instead of sabotaging her.

In this vulnerable and science-backed episode, Sabrina Zohar reveals a universal truth: everyone is struggling, and the people who seem to have it all figured out are just better at hiding it. She dismantles toxic positivity, explaining why fighting your emotions makes things worse and how acceptance can reduce their intensity by 50%.  Sabrina provides practical tools like the "Paradox Prescription" for obsessive thoughts and the "72-Hour Reality Check" to identify trauma bonding. If you've ever felt alone in your pain, this is your powerful reminder that you are not broken—you are human. The cure isn't to stop struggling, but to stop hiding it. Your brain can't tell the difference between rejection and getting punched in the face. That's why when it takes them three hours to text back, your chest tightens. Why your palms get sweaty after you triple-text and instantly regret it. Why you tell yourself “I'm fine” but your body's already spiraling. You're not dramatic. You're dysregulated. Your nervous system is reacting to the possibility of loss the same way it would to actual danger. If you're ready to stop letting what happens on your phone decide how your day feels, join me on November 6th for a live masterclass: Texting Anxiety: How to Calm Your Body Before You Hit Send. We'll unpack what's really happening in your brain and body when you text someone you like, and I'll teach you tools to get grounded fast, even in the middle of a spiral.

In this week's episode, Sabrina breaks down what your texting patterns reveal about your attachment style and emotional triggers in dating and relationships. Through her own past text exchanges, she shares how anxious thoughts, people-pleasing, and over-explaining once shaped her dating behavior, and how she learned to regulate her emotions instead of spiraling when someone didn't respond. Sabrina explores how rejection, ghosting, and unmet expectations often trace back to deeper wounds around self-worth and safety. She also explains how healing doesn't mean never feeling triggered; it means recognizing those triggers, staying grounded, and choosing not to self-abandon. If texting still sends you into a loop, this episode will help you understand why and how to finally break the cycle.

In this powerful and emotional "In The Trenches" episode, Sabrina Zohar tackles your toughest dating dilemmas with her signature no-nonsense yet compassionate approach. We dive into a listener's story about a man who re-entered her life only to pull away once more, and Sabrina breaks down exactly why we chase "unfinished business" and emotionally unavailable partners. She also answers a question from a woman stuck in a 2-year relationship with a partner who shuts down during conflict, offering crucial advice on when to fight for a connection and when to choose yourself. Plus, we get a profile review for someone re-entering the dating scene later in life and hear from a listener experiencing panic attacks in a new, healthy relationship. Sabrina normalizes dating anxiety and provides tangible tools to self-soothe and expand your window of tolerance. If you're struggling with mixed signals, self-abandonment, or the fear that you'll never find a secure partner, this episode is your guide to breaking the cycle. Stuck After the Podcast?
