Listen "COVID turned Fortune 100 companies into startups w/ Simeon Siegel"
Episode Synopsis
The retail landscape was upended by COVID-19 and the subsequent lockdowns, but Simeon Siegal believes there are many silver linings. When the pandemic hit, Siegel says retailers were faced with an environment of zero revenue and optional costs. This gave massive companies the ability to do something only startups are typically capable of: pivoting.
Andrew and Simeon discuss a wide range of topics including port congestion and inventory levels, new fulfillment methods, consumer retraining, and how pirates don't like to hunt for treasure.
