GOOD Transparency: Modern Retail

[toks2006]

You might want to use inretailpark.

It is extremely useful for Retail Buyers & Retail Suppliers considering they charge just $2.00 per month for listings and messages.

This stupid thing is the first thing that pops up when you type my username just because of the description. They r getting free advertisement and I would like to charge you $15 an hour

This makes me sad. The most common problem with saving / spending money in america is that we take advise from people who are bad with money. So now we read user comments, trust them, but have no idea who that person really is, and even more so has no vested interest in us. So you buy based on what someone said, who doesn't look at what you already have and say, "your tv is less than a year old, you won't notice much difference" instead we say, "you gotta get this!' then we wonder why we broke.

@bluefootedpig Im still using a computer from 08 and it still runs fine. I think another problem is that there rushing for perfection and big companies want to release new every year instead of slowing down. They take advantage of our personal goal of being hip, while I am contempt with having a reliable computer without unnecessary bell and whistles, and with extra cash in my wallet to buy a new game for my '08 Xbox 360, which works equally well :3

i love these like... expose'/transperancy videos...

[670Kiester]

disappointing this video is

[icmull]

love Sherman what a player!

[cluetrainee]

What's the source of all these nhumbers - are they valid. "93% of American online before they purchase?" Er..could explain this more, it'#s a bit hard to understand on its own. It's OK as "a bunch of stats set to music" but you could do so much more with this!!

[thiagokronig]

sherman, the average nerd

[da5nsy]

what's the music??

[da5nsy]

another great video from GOOD... HI FIVE!

[imageignition23]

HIGH FIVE!

am I right, guys?

[adrastea99]

Where do you look before you purchase?

Obviously the video isn't talking about groceries, but appliances and such junk

[adrastea99]

Yes, yes, it's all a marketing scam

It's called undercover advertising, it's been done since people (who are very good at socializing) were paid in the 50s to go to college and drink colas all day saying how great they are to people they met

Soon, kids in high school saw their older college bound siblings liking cola and tried it themselves, and so on and so forth

Capitalism sure is great kids

[ljamin]

i think it would be great if all the online reviewers start saying they want their products to be more "green". who is with me?

[magVSuniverse]

@ljamin

"green" is now a way to market to those who think something colored or with the words "Green" on it is good for the earth.

[frezzingaces]

actually i think wishing for more wishes would be a better idea. then sex

[someonemagical]

very interesting, but would like to know exactly how the info was gathered.

in any case, it would be good if all the big businesses and advertising moguls watched this...maybe they'd put more time and money into better products and listening to user feedback, rather billion dollar bs ad campaigns.

[cary123]

Unforcently we live in capitalism and this wont happen.

[CarlosIsDown]

@cary123 'choo talkin' 'bout?

[icefox00]

93% of Americans research online. Maybe, if you count when someone like me does research on behalf of people like my entire family because I'm the only one that isn't afraid of the internet

[HockeyDiane]

@TridentGuild LOL thats exactly what I was thinking! Although my parents are totally un-savvy and ALL of their shopping was done online.

[Freshbott2]

All the sex could in turn bring peace too!

[simdude2u]

looks like someone is using a mac 1:19

[evn153]

[jamie5693]

[SourSeayow626]

[lekotar]

Consumerism has become a bit more self satisfying.

[cryps1]

This is a great video. Right guys? High five!

[RarewareLover]

@cryps1 Right! *Slap*

[TehMiKANiSe]

High five!

[sth128]

Hmm... What if they were shopping for sex toys? "Need more inputs"!!!

HIGH

FIVE

[SoylentCyan]

Jill looks a bit... too happy

[tomixboy]

too bad some peers' are company employees and confuse you instead of helping

[GuruMN]

If high performing businesses use online consumer insight with sales & merchandising, they should also use it in design & development where it counts. I'm all over online automotive forum sites, I see tons of peoples opinions on stuff and when pretty much everyone hates something, it's clear their research and development homework was left unfinished. This applies to foreign automakers as well. As much as I'd like to think every manufacturer paid attention, it's clear they do not.

[Nicx950]

Insightful as always

[winstonlocke]

Awesome, as always!!! :)
