Nordstrom Downsizing


The omnichannel movement advocated by vendors/pundits really, really ended up in a costly failure. My goodness. It just makes me sad to see how many retail leaders listened to such terrible advice, and are now paying for it with their jobs/careers.

Time to focus on what matters.
  1. Merchandise Productivity.
  2. Customer Acquisition.

  1. Can you expand on your comment? Doesn't "omnichannel" allow customers to shop however they like? What was the terrible advice?
