Good morning and Happy Sunday. The following 3 links happen to be subjects I spoke about last week, amazingly they came up in this week’s news. The first is #walmart new format. I have been bashing their terrible displays for over 5 years but now it is time to give credit where credit is due, they finally got the memo. Next we check out #delmonte going direct to consumers. The third subject is #shaymyers, whom has become a celebrity doing what I have been begging the #pma and #united to do for years, educate consumers. Lastly check out a feel-good article about what they are doing at #skatzman to help their employee’s children. Click on this link to continue reading and watching this week’s video.
