Brands attempting to capture every last sale possible while they can. For Amazon, can they convince value-shoppers there truly is "more to Prime?" My question: how much will they push Haul during this event? chainstoreage.com/amazon-walma... #retail #ecommerce #amazon #ecoonomy

Per my previous post, I now have the answer. Most shoppers have not tried Haul (I personally think the UX is poor) but this may be a good chance to pull some of those Temu shoppers to Amazon. www.retaildive.com/news/amazon-... #Ecommerce #retail #amazon #emailgeek #marketing

This makes sense. Auto parts stores have been feeling serious pressure from online stores for some time, especially Amazon. www.retailcustomerexperience.com/news/advance... #Ecommerce #retail
