Love brick n' mortar as much as we do? CustomerXp & MarTech Entrepreneur @RonaldVining to use @CMOretail expertise to save it via @BrandInflux of engagement!
Clarification: Video was neither taken by Retail Saved nor Ron Vining, simply shared. We did visit the same Suntec City Showroom just this past week, however.
⚡️🚘🔋Fast growing @BYDCompany occupying #Retail space across Asia as seen in @RonaldVining recent @SuntecSingapor visit. Thinking @FiskerInc should partner with #BYD, produce a co-designed #EV vehicle, to allow them entry into US marketplace, boost $FSR shares. Win-win for both!
🐔🛍️🛟1st, site of #LonePineMall (#TwinPineMall) from #BackToTheFuture, the Puente Hills Mall in Industry, CA & now original @ChickfilA location will also close its doors... Why? Because Greenbriar Mall in Atlanta, GA is also shutting down. #SaveRetail!

📕🛍️☕️Barnes & Noble’s #retail, redesign, asks you to judge each book, errr… store, by its cover!
Hopeful, B&N brings Saugus, MA @BNbooks back, as huge gap in market, since closed.
TIP: @SimonMalls has space at their @SquareOneMall. I’d happily design it! https://t.co/yjqZ9g5iw2
🛍️ Hey @Newsweek, I actually enjoy the “#Mall” within a “#Retail Department Store” concept, aka, like the multi-brand stores of old, that @Macys has recently been trying for, leasing out “store-in-store” space to Toys R Us, Starbucks, etc… within their mega stores (similar to what @Target has also been doing with Apple, Disney & LEGO), but both have yet to execute it properly. I’d be happy to design it for them, maybe I should start a side business like, @RetailSaved / @CMOretail to do just that?

🦹🛍️vs⚖️👮How to Save #Retail when a fmr Police turned Mayor refuses to prosecute #Shoplifters? Back in my Chess King #RetailAssociate days, people stole a shirt or jeans, attempted to run off w/chained Michael Jackson Leather Thriller Jacket. Today's $$$ targets = Grand Larceny!
DisneyQuest was an excellent concept, that was never fully executed, in my opinion.
If these Big Box Entertainment Destinations had Disney Parks & Resort - level theming, engaging attractions, memorable dining experiences & unique merchandise… they might have caught on.
Believe the #DisneyQuest concept is ripe for being revisited, @RobertIger, as part of a @RetailSaved movement to revitalize Shopping Centers across the Globe. Much like the #Disney Store / Gallery was a gateway, the plus for @Disney is the chance to market @DisneyPlus while re/introducing Guests to the six @DisneyParks & @ABC, @ESPN, @DisneyStudios, @DisneyAnimation, @Pixar, @Marvel, @StarWars, @IndianaJones, @20thCentury IPs.
#Singapore would be an excellent “test” destination for the concept that I pitched to HKDL executives a decade ago. I’ll be at #IAAPA Expo Asia in June. Love to further develop this idea, if Disney is interested.
🧱 Dear LEGO:
IMO, The @LEGO_Group used to be the top omni-channel retailer, yet after 2.5 frustrating hours between midnight & 2:30am (on top of other recent fails), I’m beginning to think differently.
First, #LEGO’s #MayTheFourth GWP Promos should ALWAYS include a #StarWars exclusive #minifigure!
Second, your #eCommerce channel MUST work!!
I was on a #YouTube Live-stream last night with 100s of disgruntled #VIPs having same problem.
Third, a premium #Retail brand must reward their most loyal #Customers, especially, in wake of excessive price increases!!!
Many on the Live-stream, gave up after 1, 2, 3 hrs of patiently waiting to get LEGO Website to work. Over time, fails like this, will erode brand credibility.
🛍️ Suggestion: Release a #LEGOvip shopping #App with parental controls for use during special events & product launches.
Happy to develop this #Loyalty experience App & launch it for you…
Cheers,
Ron

🧱🤔💭Dear @LEGO_Group: As the world's #OmniChannel retail leader, it makes zero sense to this hyperconnected @CMOretail expert, that you list NEW items as #OutOfStock when you know you'll be manufacturing more. Your #eCommerce channel should remain open for #Retail Customers, especially #LEGOvip Members to continue to make #Backorders.
Why #Tipping Is So Out Of Control In The U.S. https://t.co/l5Sf1fp5AD via @YouTube? I found this @MSNBC news video of interest. It’s endemic of what is plaguing America. Thoughts?
🧚♀️🏰🏔️Truly Magical! It is heartwarming to see & hear the Visionary, the Technologist, the Operative, the Storyteller, the Patriot, the legendary force behind The #WaltDisneyCompany, its creator, #WalterEliasDisney!
What makes this type of leader so special?

NOTE: I pitched this idea to #Disney, way back in 2011, when working with a Singapore-firm, who had created similar #Hologram tech, behind Michael Jackson's 2014 Billboard Music Awards performance.
