What's your take on the level of challenge that is presented to CPG brands trying to navigate all of the retail media networks available to them?Should brands be focused on the big marketplaces like Amazon, Walmart, Instacart etc. or do they need to develop negotiation strategies for all the places their products appear for sales and why?Brand advertisers find themselves in different types of situations in which they must negotiate retail media investments.

"The world feels short on peace these days, doesn't it?Mother Teresa once said, “If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.” I worry, sometimes, that we forget that we really are in this together. It's a noisy, hectic, I'm-right-you're-wrong world out there. Today, I want to make a special effort to be less concerned with making a point and more concerned with making some peace."Leave a comment for Jennifer: https://incourage.me/?p=252804--The summer issue of DaySpring's Everyday Faith magazine is here!

How do you price your product or service?What price should your product, service, coaching program, membership course be at?Now here's the thing, in the open world right now there are people that are hunting for free or low-cost everywhere. They're searching the Walmarts of the world, the Amazons of the world, they're looking on YouTube, on Google, they're searching and hunting in Facebook groups and on Instagram accounts… they're hunting for free or low cost.Yes, there are going to be way more people that want free or low cost in every single market or niche that's out there in the world. But.. at the exact same time, there are a lot of people in the world right now that are willing to make a very serious investment in our product and service.So I recommend when it comes to pricing is that we really need to know our audience, we really need to know the transformation. What is the problem they have and how are we speaking into that problem? What is the transformation that they're going to get through our coaching program or membership or course or product or service? What is that transformation?Because that's really the end result of what they're going to get, the promise that you're making. It doesn't matter how many modules or how how if it's a facebook live or zoom call. It doesn't matter if it's a whiz bang thing, it's the desired result, it's the end result that people are seeking, they want that problem fixed. What is the transformation. When you understand that, then you understand how to package around the price that you actually want.I'm going to challenge you: start with the price!What problem are you solving? And when you look at that price point, how can you create an offer around it that's going to make it totally irresistible?

President Trump on Tuesday announced a new plan to build a Golden Dome missile defense system. Displaying the design from the Oval Office with his Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Space Force General Michael Guetlein, Trump asserted the new defense infrastructure--estimated to cost between $25 billion and $75 billion--will be a necessary layer of security for the homeland that he says “hopefully we never have to use.” U.S. Senator Deb Fischer (R-NE) has been a longtime advocate for improving America's missile defenses, on the Rundown she discusses this Golden Dome plan, ongoing diplomacy with Russia and Iran, and her efforts to fight EV mandates. Last Thursday, Walmart announced it would be raising its prices due to the impact of President Trump's tariffs. Americans initially wary of tariffs had cited this concern: that tariffs could bring about price hikes that would eventually hit their wallets. With back-to-school shopping along with the summer holidays and barbecues ahead, some businesses are preparing to adjust. Founder and CEO of Storch Advisors and former CEO of Toys "R" Us, Gerald Storch is a retail industry veteran. He joins the podcast to share the true impact of tariffs on America's retail industry. Plus, commentary from author and presidential historian, Craig Shirley. Photo Credit: AP Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

President Donald Trump's feud with Walmart is intensifying. After the retail giant warned that its prices will go up due to Trump's tariffs, he erupted on Truth Social, and even threatened Walmart to get it to “eat” the costs of his levies. Then White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt reiterated the threat to reporters. Amusingly enough, all this constitutes an admission that other countries don't pay the costs of the tariffs, as he keeps claiming—we do. We talked to Lindsay Owens, an economist who's also executive director of the Groundwork Collaborative. She explains how Trump accidentally undermined his case for tariffs, why this is so damaging given Walmart's massive presence in MAGA America, and what all this reveals about Trump's growing political weakness on the economy.
