Ep. 8: Offline vs. Online with Sam Jones, founder of OOOOO.com

Welcome back to Retail is Dead; a podcast started in lockdown 1.0 as our answer to all the negative press around retail.  We are fed up hearing that "retail is dead", when in our opinion it's just getting exciting.   Our eighth episode is all about physical vs online retail; possibly the most disruptive step to retail as we know it.  However that doesn't mean that the two cannot exist together & complement one another.  We talk about the brands and places that we feel are doing it well.   Our guest interview is with Sam Jones, the founder of social commerce site OOOOO https://ooooo.com. Think QVC meets Tik Tok & add some fun content. Sam tells about some of his fav brands & what he thinks about the future of retail.  As ever, thank you so much so much for all your support & feedback we really appreciate it.  Don't forget to follow us on Insta @retailisdead_ or drop us a line at [email protected].  Please don't forget to rate, review and subscribe on Apple or Spotify.  Love Erin, Bex & Leanne Our brands:  Gymshark https://www.gymshark.com @gymshark  Gymshark new Regent street flagship YouTube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3O6X3T-FIc  Soho Home https://www.sohohome.com @sohohome  Glossier https://www.glossier.com @glossier How I Built This Podcast with Emily Weiss https://www.npr.org/2018/11/20/669783899/live-episode-glossier-emily-weiss  Tala https://www.wearetala.com @wearetala  Beauty Pie https://www.beautypie.com @beautypie  Scandiborn http://scandiborn.co.uk @scadiborn  Nanushka https://www.nanushka.com @nanushka  Zalando https://www.zalando.co.uk @zalando
