Exploring the humanity in retail.
Where Commerce and Culture Meet
We tell stories about the things we buy and the people who sell them. Shopping in a store, after all, still means running into other humans. Which is why so much of who we are ends up wrapped not just in what we buy but where we buy it. This show is about the humanity in that, and the voices you won’t hear anywhere else.
Co-hosted by Jeff Fisher & Cristene Gonzalez-Wertz, RETAIL DONE RIGHT is a podcast that explores these changes, identifies trends, shares insights and speaks with a variety of people in the trenches to better understand the changing nature of retail.
Retail Done Right Podcasts
If craft is having a heyday, and the numbers confirm it is, why did the store built to serve makers go bankrupt twice in one year? The craft store died, but the making didn’t. In fact, one of our featured voices in the opener notes that she mourns the loss – delivered by her unprompted. There really wasn’t – and still isn’t – anything like it for some guests. We explore this with Chris DiTullio, former Chief Commercial Officer and interim CEO of Joann’s. We explore making, craft, grief and recovery.
