Asus declares war on the Microsoft Surface with its new Transformer 2-in-1 Windows tablet range.
The mid-range of the new Transformer family has a killer screen in a 6.9mm body.
The popular Transformer Book gets a makeover with new colours and new features to get the range ready for the Windows 10 launch window.
This good-looking fanless hybrid works as a slim Windows tablet or an ultra-portable laptop, but still suffers from the same awkward marriage of base and screen as many hybrids.
With Asus' slickest user interface yet, included keyboard, and a competitive starting price, the small but chunky Transformer Pad TF103 is an attractively affordable tablet hybrid.
The 10.1-incher fails to capture the imagination or excitement of its fellow Computex 2014 tablets.
Pricing not available
The Windows and Android phone, tablet and notebook combo aims to please even the most fussy user by packing everything you need (bar iOS) into a 12.5-inch device.
Pricing not available
Despite its bulky design, the Asus Transformer Pad TF701T is one of the best 10-inch Android tablet values available, but it's worth your time to also look closely at its competition.
The Asus Transformer Book T100 revives the Netbook value proposition (and Netbook usability issues) in a budget-price 10-inch laptop that doubles as a tablet. You won't love it, but for sheer bang for the buck, it's hard to beat.
The Asus Transformer Book Trio combines Windows 8 and Android in a laptop, tablet, and desktop computer.

Turn your LG G5 into a workhorse with the right accessories.
Do you have your phone on you at all times ready to respond to every call, text, and email that comes your way? Do you use your phone as your primary TV, game console, and music player? If that sounds like you, then you my friend, are a power user.
Great accessories are the icing on the phone cake. You already have the the phone you want that works amazingly well, not you want those little extra pieces of hardware that just make your life that much easier. We've rounded up some accessories for the LG G5 you won't want to miss out on.
- Aukey dual-port car charger
- Encased
- Joto LG G5 armband case
- IQ Shield screen protector
- LG G5 Cam Plus
Aukey dual-port car charger
If you use your LG G5 for literally everything you possibly can, then you might find yourself tethered to a power outlet more often than you'd like. If you find yourself needing a charge on the road, then the Aukey dual-port car charger is a great solution.
This car charger plugs into your car cigarette lighter and has two USB ports, so you can charge double the devices! The top port is a 3.0 Quick Charge port and is specifically meant to get the fastest charge out of the USB-C connection. So, grab the Aukey dual-port car charger, ditch the wall socket, get out on the road, and charge your G5 in no time.
Encased desktop charger
Charging your phone in your office can be a bit of a nightmare. If you are trying to do your work, and use your phone at the same time you probably start wondering why you only have two hands.
Encased makes a neat charger that allows you LG G5 to remain upright. It may not seem like much, but when you think of how many times you touch your phone in a day, having the ability to do so without holding it sounds pretty nice doesn't?
You can plug the charger into your computer's USB port but we suggest plugging it in directly to a wall socket for the best effect.
Joto LG G5 armband case
For anyone who uses apps to workout - whether it's heavy cardio or pumping lots of iron - an armband case is a great accessory to have. You can strap your phone to your arm and not worry about dropping or damaging it.
Joto's armband cases is specifically made for the LG G5 so it fits the phone really well and feels really secure. The back of the armband also has a few card slots for you to store bank cards or a little cash so you can even run to do your errands no problem!
Added bonus of this armband is it's sweat-resistant, so it works well even for those really long runs, or intense workouts.
IQ Shield screen protector
Screens are delicate, and can too easily be scratched and chipped but that doesn't need to happen to your LG G5. Screen protectors are life savers - or more accurately phone savers - that are a really good investment for anyone who want to keep their phones screen looking brand new.
IQ Shield offers a screen protector that is a little difficult to put on, but once you do it right it is immaculate. It uses a mild amount of liquid (very minor, don't be afraid) to really make that protector stick to the screen. IQ Shield offers a lifetime warranty and will send you a new screen protector free of charge anytime the product is damaged or defective in anyway.
LG G5 Cam Plus
We couldn't talk about accessories without mentioning the coolest one right from LG themselves and that's the Cam Plus module.
LG G5 Cam Plus module makes your phone feel like a real camera. The module snaps into bottom of the G5 and gives you access to physical keys for neat camera functions. Things like shooting,focusing, and a zoom wheel are all added with the Cam Plus.
The great thing about Cam Plus is how lightweight it is. Adding just under two ounces the module doesn't weigh down the phone at all!
Need more things?
This is just scratching the surface of cool things you can buy to go along with your LG G5. Check out these sweet clear cases for the LG G5.

Of course, the sheer amount of data available isn't the only problem.

Here are four key charts from the report, highlighting four further challenges for companies in measuring the value of data.

Securing executive sponsorship

While many view digital analytics as a vital part of a company's digital transformation, there is somewhat of a discrepancy in securing support from the top down.

51% of company respondents say that they don't have executive sponsorship.

As a result, this can have a marked impact on approach, with these companies 29 percentage points less likely to have a formal data strategy in place.

Lack of ROI measurement

Without a direct correlation between investment in digital analytics and financial outcome, the value of data can never be defined.

Research found that 48% of companies are failing to measure that return on investment – a statistic which puts the aforementioned problem of securing sponsorship into context.

On the other hand, the below graph does show some encouraging signs, with over half of companies citing that they do measure ROI on analytics investments.

Implementing a formal strategy

62% of companies do not have a formally documented data analytics strategy in place, which goes to show just how much room for improvement there still is.

Taking heed from those who do, a combined offline and online strategy could prove to be the most effective, with a merging of the customer journey providing the most insight.

When it comes to the reasons for a lack of formal strategy, money is a big factor, with companies that turn over less than £50m being 11% less likely to have one.

Bridging the skills gap

While 'producing reports' is one of the biggest skills in demand, research shows that this is being met internally.

On the other hand, there does appear to be a growing skills gap in more specific areas like business intelligence tools.

This appears to be a result of the growing focus on digital transformation, and in particular, the way that digital integration is becoming a business-wide objective.

As more training is needed to match the pace of technological change, it's not just a case of cherry-picking the most useful data – but having the support and skills to do so.

Digital Shift, a quarterly service from Econsultancy, is intended as a guide to support strategic thinking.

Focused tightly on digital technologies, marketing and ecommerce, it's about delivering actionable insight on trends that will be significant in the short to mid-term, and which can be used to generate new ideas, improve business performance and stay ahead of the competition.

The Q3 2016 report explores the most notable developments impacting digital marketing this quarter. The critical shifts are summarised below:

 The end of earned media? With growing algorithmic curation, ever-declining organic reach and limited impact, typically coming from shared content, we consider whether this is the end of earned media, or perhaps just a reason to redefine it.

 Disruption and unbundling. The so-called 'unicorn startups' have been the recipients of a huge amount of attention and focus. However, are large companies disrupted by multiple sources, leading to the unbundling of entire businesses and sectors?

 AI, chatbots and machine learning. This quarter saw more announcements in this rapidly burgeoning area so we look at some of the more interesting developments, a way of understanding the key drivers of acceleration and the future of bots.

 Is the mobile app boom over? New data suggests that a new maturity is being reached – not only in the incremental improvement of smartphones, but in declining numbers of apps being downloaded.

 Mary Meeker's internet trends. We take a look at some of the key highlights from Meeker's annual trends deck, including factors slowing growth, new image and video formats and platforms.

 The ever-changing role of video. The growth in video is being accompanied by significant divergence in formats, leading to new distribution, consumption, engagement and monetisation opportunities. Is video the new HTML?

 Trends from Cannes. Virtual reality (VR), creating consumer movements and hacking platforms – we take a look at some of the most interesting but less high-profile examples from Cannes.

The brand's very first brick-and-mortar store to open in the UK, it is a conceptual space designed to offer consumers a 'hands on' shopping experience.

Similarly, it's yet another example of retail stores bridging the gap between the digital and physical experience. (Note I did not say 'phygital'… that ever-so-divisive word).

But is it a gimmick, or is it really a rather lovely way to purchase a vacuum cleaner?

Here's a run-down of what the store has got to offer.

Customer-centric experience

As well as some fancy technology, the first thing that strikes you when walking into the Dyson store is a number of rather important-looking people standing around.

These are Dyson 'experts' – people that are not just employed to sell you a product, but to offer demonstrations and speak in-depth about the science behind them.

For the average shopper, i.e. the kind of person who might pop in to have a browse out of curiosity or mild interest, this presence could prove slightly off-putting. After all, there's nothing worse than feeling out-of-place in a shop.

But on the other hand, for anyone actually interested in purchasing a Dyson product, it certainly signals a focus on meeting the customer's needs.

With instant and one-to-one interaction, it brings to mind the sort of service (and attention) that you get in a car showroom – something that's obviously lacking in the world of ecommerce.

Integrating digital

Whether or not you're determined to buy a Dyson product, the demonstration aspect of the store is hard to resist.

Whether it's an air-purifier or a cordless-vacuum, staff are ready and waiting to give demonstrations – even allowing you to choose between the type of dust or dirt you'd like to hoover up.

When it comes to giving the customer a comprehensive overview of a product, it certainly beats any 360-degree video you might come across online.

But if you like that sort of thing, you won't be disappointed with a lack of digital integration - the store is covered in screens, further emphasising its high-tech nature.

Try before you buy

While the ground floor is exciting, I was most impressed by the Supersonic salon – a mock-up hair salon on the first floor that offers visitors the chance to test-drive the brand new Dyson hairdryer.

With an appointment booking system on Eventbrite, it is the gimmickiest part of the store. And yet, it's undeniably smart.

If you're serious about spending almost £300 on a hairdryer, why on earth wouldn't you want to take the time to test it out?

What's more, you're probably rather curious to learn why it costs so much – which means hearing about the complex engineering behind each product will be music to your ears.

In conclusion

With its slick design and hand-on approach, the new Dyson flagship sort of feels like the Apple store, but a bit fancier and more educational.

Located just across the road from Selfridges (where another creative shopping space has also just launched), it's certainly worth a visit if you're on the look-out for a new Dyson.

But even if you're not, it might be worth popping in for a nosey anyway...

By focusing on how products work as well as what they do, it provides a far more interesting experience than the majority of its neighbouring stores.

And just finally, it's worth noting that Dyson hasn't installed any self-serve kiosks or touchscreens, which had threatened to be one of the big retail trends of recent years.

Maybe retailers have realised that most people don't want to go in-store to browse products on an iPad?

In line with this growing trend, here's a basic run-down of ABM, as well as a few reasons why B2B marketers could benefit from using it in future.

What is ABM?

In a nutshell, account-based marketing is used to identify and target a key set of accounts, using personalised and highly tailored campaigns to generate leads.

It is based on the assumption that B2B buying decisions are usually made by a select group of people rather than a single person.

Targeting the core decision-makers (through IP addresses) should bring a greater chance of success.

Ultimately, it's all about delivering a relevant message to the most relevant people within a company, and it utilises new technology in order to do so.

How does it work?

There are many software-as-a-service account-based marketing systems out there, as well as those that are able integrate with existing platforms.

Most will be able to identify and manage data and offer the tools to deliver personalised campaigns.

For smaller companies, this is one of the biggest limitations, as it means investing in new technology as well as ensuring that employees have the relevant skills to use it.

What does it offer?

Social data insight

An important part of the accounts-based model, social data allows marketers to get under the skin of potential clients and find out what really matters to them.

With insight into company updates and general topics of conversation, marketers can greater personalise messages and tailor offers accordingly.

Direct conversation

As well as providing the platform for personalisation, ABM allows for much more frequent one-to-one communication.

Whether it's an email or follow up phone call, its direct nature means that there is the opportunity for relationships to form rather than just a one-sided sales pitch.

Retargeting

The always-on approach of ABM means that marketers can target companies that have gotten lost along the way.

By retargeting at crucial moments – such as when an account is browsing a specific website or displaying buying signals – clients are much more likely to respond.

By using IP addresses instead of cookies, a specific account or group of accounts can be simultaneously targeted.

What are the biggest benefits for B2B marketers?

No more dead-ends

With ABM, marketers are free to prioritise the most important projects.

Instead of flogging a dead-horse, they will be able to determine ahead of time who is the worthiest target. This creates a more streamlined strategy and a great targeted approach.

Alignment of sales and marketing

One of the biggest benefits of ABM is its ability to break down the barriers between sales and marketing teams.

The process can only work if both teams work together (as well as get on board with each other's way of thinking).

Usually, it is the marketers' job to identify and satisfy customer requirements, and up to sales to persuade customers to close the deal.

However, with marketers getting closer to the point-of-purchase commitment, and sales reaching into earlier stages of the process, the traditional rules no longer apply.

Even without ABM, the changing customer journey means there is a growing need for integration between the two teams.

As highlighted in Econsultancy's new Convergence of Marketing and Sales report, with the customer's own online research driving much of the decision-making, there is no need to speak to different teams at different times.

Instead of a traditional funnel, a single evolving conversation with the vendor is much more typical of the path to purchase.

Increase in revenue

According the recent stats, 80% of marketers say AMB outperforms all other marketing channels in terms of ROI.

What's more, when ABM has been in use for at least a year, 60% of users reported a revenue increase of at least 10% & 19% reported a revenue impact of 30% or greater.

This certainly shows what a valuable tool it can be, and as the technology becomes even smarter, this only looks set to continue.

Continual optimisation

One of the best things about ABM is that it can potentially enable marketers to get instant results.

This means that as soon as the data is analysed, campaigns can be altered accordingly, and strategy can continously be tweaked and improved.

So…

With personalisation a growing focus for businesses of all kinds, it was only a matter of time before B2B companies realised its potential.

Of course, account-based marketing does not spell the end for inbound and outbound marketing, but with greater relevance to the individual client, there's a reason it is the buzzword on every B2B marketer's lips.

As preface I should say, I've never worked in an agency, but I have been a client and also met and worked with lots of agency bods.

There are many articles like this on the internet, this is just my take on common business sense.

1. Don't shirk the groundwork

Account managers (AM) must pray at the church of research.

Even if you are only working on a niche project - perhaps some copywriting or a microsite - and not a brand-defining above-the-line campaign, that doesn't excuse you from research.

It doesn't take long to get an appreciation of brand and industry history, to follow/subscribe to brand comms, to experience a service or product, to trawl through owned media, to read an annual report - and that's before any discipline-specific research (e.g. SEO analysis).

Then, of course, an AM should understand how a client's competitors stack up.

This should really be instinctive, like preparing for a job interview, and helps the AM understand the context of a client's wants and needs.

2. Think preparation before communication

Nothing can make a client (or any human being) as angry as sitting on a conference call, waiting patiently for their account manager to join, only for the AM to wing it.

However smart they may be, account managers must not improvise even informal meetings - they need the latest figures, timeline and must be abreast of recent communication.

Being late or underprepared for a meeting or a phone call completely negates the client's feeling of being valued, i.e. it's better to reschedule than to fudge it.

But remember, although the client wants to feel the AM is in control, that doesn't mean you can't ask questions or admit where your knowledge is limited.

Clarity is key to meeting expectations.

3. Clients want opinions not minions

Yes-men rarely deliver everything they say yes to. Account managers mustn't shy away from constructive disagreement, but shouldn't be truculent or self-righteous and detached.

Knowing when to back yourself and when to shut up might not be something that comes naturally - this is where your senior colleagues can lead by example. Learn from them where you can.

Lastly, building a 'personal brand' (chiefly via social media) can be a good thing, helping to place you within the context of a knowledgable community and letting clients know you're a respected figure.

However, AMs shouldn't be controversial or divisive, as this leads back to self-righteous territory. Discretion is paramount, too.

4. Zeal seals the deal

Zest is best when interacting with a client. Just be enthusiastic. Smile, laugh in the right places, but not a feigned laugh.

You can't fake this one very easily, so perhaps its inclusion here is pointless.

Maybe the correct message is to find the angle that allows you to be most enthusiastic about a client or the work in hand.

5. The devil is in the detail

An old sentiment - check everything thrice before it goes over to the client.

6. The fiend is in the fact

It's not just spelling and formatting that matters - where the client's data is concerned, a high degree of accuracy is a must.

7. Bring order where there is none

Have you noticed people at your agency moving data around from one place to another, manually, making work for themselves?

Are your colleagues making best use of appropriate collaboration tools?

If AMs can make processes more efficient, even by a relatively small degree, they are potentially saving their future ass.

via Dennis Brekke

8. Be likeable, but not at all costs

This is the nub of successful management. Being respected is more important than being liked.

AMs and PMs sometimes have to deliver news that isn't going to be met with universal positive regard (about cost, time or just a flat 'no').

Sugar-coating or, worse, prevaricating is the wrong thing to do - tell it like it is.

 tag:econsultancy.com,2008:BlogPost/68037 2016-07-07T14:48:39+01:00 2016-07-07T14:48:39+01:00 Amazon might be ditching the discount, sort of Patricio Robles
As detailed by The New York Time's David Streitfeld, list prices, which Amazon has traditionally used to highlight product discounts, are increasingly disappearing.

For example, according to Boomerang Commerce, a year ago only half of the 100 pet food products it identified as being sold at a discount to their list price still had the list price displayed.

The Times observed a similar trend across other product categories it has been monitoring.

So what gives? Why is Amazon apparently doing away with list prices at a growing clip?

Legal issues could be a motivator. Numerous online retailers have come under fire for displaying discount information based on list prices that are inaccurate.

More than two dozen lawsuits alleging violations of a California law that forbids deceptive advertising have been filed this year alone against retailers including Macy's, Ann Taylor and Ralph Lauren.

Other large retailers have settled similar suits.

Amazon has changed the game

But legal considerations probably aren't the only motivator for Amazon's changes.

As Clarkson University professor of consumer studies Larry Compeau told the Times, "They are trying to figure out what product categories have customers who are so tied into the Amazon ecosystem that list prices are no longer necessary."

In other words, Amazon increasingly doesn't need to compete on price; it has built a base of such loyal customers that many will likely purchase from Amazon even when they can get a slightly better deal elsewhere.

The reason? Amazon is frequently seen as having a superior customer experience.

By one estimate, Amazon now offers nearly half a billion products for sale, and thanks to Amazon Prime, tens of millions of customers can trust Amazon to deliver their orders within two days for free.

Amazon has also found ways to make itself a bigger and bigger part of many of its customers' lives.

For example, Prime offers access to streaming movie, television and music content, as well as ebooks through a number of Kindle programs.

And new technologies like Dash buttons could very represent the next step in the evolution of subscription commerce.

While none of this means that Amazon doesn't need to be price competitive at all, it seems entirely possible that Amazon is now at the point where it doesn't need to play by the rules most retailers have to play by.

And that could pave the way for it to put pricing hacks like dynamic pricing to use in ways other retailers can't.

Typically, these services are focused on a particular product category, such as healthy snacks or children's books.

One of the poster children for subscription box services is Birchbox, which sends its subscribers five beauty product samples every month for $10 per month, or $110 per year.

Birchbox, like many subscription box services, adds a touch of personalisation, tailoring the samples it delivers based on profile information supplied by its customers.

The model has been a hit with consumers. Birchbox's customer base reportedly eclipsed the million subscriber count, producing a business generating eight-figures in revenue each year.

Not surprisingly, investors were impressed and funded the company to the tune of more than $70m, valuing the young business at nearly $500m.

But, as Bloomberg's Kim Bhasin and Polly Mosendz recently detailed, "Birchbox [found] cute boxes filled with makeup aren't enough."

The company laid off staff earlier this year, and launched a traditional brick-and-mortar retail effort.

But this week, the company laid off another 12% of its staff, suggesting that Birchbox is finding it more difficult to live up to expectations than it had hoped.

With volatile public markets and no funding since 2014, Birchbox is not in an ideal position. And neither are its many competitors and copy-cats.

As Forrester Research analyst Sucharita Mulpuru told Bloomberg, "Expectations have been too high. We've seen this story before..."

She was perhaps referring to the daily deals market which produced one of the fastest-growing companies of all time only to fade away a few short years later as consumers and businesses tired of the model.

Subscription box services are dead, long live subscription commerce

The rise and fall of subscription box services was just as predictable as the rise and fall of daily deal services.

Subscription businesses obviously have attractive attributes, the most attractive of which is arguably an annuity-like revenue stream.

But there are numerous cons to the subscription commerce model that make building a business for the ages a challenge.

As Philip Wilkinson, founder of Kopi, a subscription gourmet coffee business, noted:

They can get boring. A lot of subscription businesses just send the same thing each month and then it just becomes a dull commodity item.

With barriers to entry low, competition in many subscription box niches is rife, driving churn and customer acquisition costs up.

For highly-popular subscription box services like Birchbox, the model itself becomes an impediment.

While subscription revenue is great, once subscription growth slows, companies find that they have little to no means to increase revenue-per-customer unless they embrace a traditional retail model (eg. selling products, not subscriptions).

However, that is easier said than done because these companies are frequently in no position to compete with the major brands that dominate the conventional retail markets they're associated with.

For these reasons and more, it seems quite possible that subscription box services could go the way of the daily deal, leaving investors who have funneled over a billion dollars into the space very disappointed.

But even if subscription box services have already seen their best days, subscription commerce is not dead.

Some subscription box services will survive. And the Birchbox-pioneered subscription box isn't the only form that subscription commerce can take.

Amazon Subscribe & Save allows consumers to receive periodic scheduled deliveries of thousands of products with a focus on essentials like toilet paper, dietary supplements, diapers and pet food.

Other subscription services focused on essentials include Gillette Shave Club and hair coloring upstart Madison Reed.

But eventually, subscription commerce could merge with traditional commerce thanks to offerings like Amazon Dash, which allows customers to reorder products on demand with the tap of a branded button.

Amazon says orders through Dash have increased by 70% in the past three months and there are now more than 150 brands whose products are available through the program.

While it's too early to call Amazon Dash a success, or proclaim it the successor to subscription commerce as we know it, Dash has best of both worlds potential, offering much of the convenience and economic benefits of subscription services without a formal subscription.
 tag:econsultancy.com,2008:BlogPost/67960 2016-06-30T09:42:00+01:00 2016-06-30T09:42:00+01:00 Eight ways Veggie Pret innovated pop-up retail strategy Ben Davis
1. Pret let the customer take control

What really generated love, affection, patronage, engagement (you name it...) was Pret's positioning of this pop-up as a trial that would live or die by customer preferences.

It was up to the customers to leave feedback on menu items, and this interaction would actively shape Pret's menu of the future - what makes the cut and is introduced to the everyday menu, and what doesn't.

Inviting feedback, particularly qualitative feedback (in the form of handwritten comment cards) cedes ownership to the customers and tells them what they knew all along - this brand cares what they think.

2. Pret created a destination

Pop-ups have become synonymous in recent years with digital pureplays, as they are the brands that get most press coverage when they decide to open a store (eBay, Amazon etc.).

However, what Veggie Pret showed is the cachet that a solitary, rebranded pop-up holds, when it is one of hundreds of other, 'normal' stores.

This is destination retail. The store shines brighter because it is 'different-but-the-same'.

3. Pret chose a pop-up raison d'etre

A pop-up needs to have a strong raison d'etre, it generates most buzz as an ephemeral and even risky venture.

Pret chose to go veggie - yes, it needed inspiration for more menu items, but it knew vegetarianism would strike a chord, in a metropolitan capital city where vegetarianism and veganism continues to be a rising trend.

It may not be for everyone, Pret knows that devotees of its chicken salads and prosciutto baguettes might give it a miss (despite its recent 'Not just for veggies' campaign), but it will chime magnificently with a significant portion of the customer base who feel their time has finally come.

It was this choice of cause (if you like) that created an in-store atmosphere that one employee described as similar to a Beyoncé gig.

4. Pret was open on social media

Pret emblazoned its social channels with veggie green and added the store location.

The Pret Twitter account isn't that active (it tweets about once a day, though makes strategic use of paid social), but it put the pop-up front and centre, retweeting feedback and encouraging further debate.

Essentially, one pop-up was allowed to become a campaign of sorts.

@Pret I've made my views clear! pic.twitter.com/r59NRHra51
 — Ashley Halliday (@TylerTowers) June 9, 2016

Pret's website, when running blog articles about the pop-up, even invited readers to tweet its chief executive and give him feedback directly.

5. Pret showed that pop-ups don't even have to pop-up

What was striking about this pop-up was that it was more of a rebrand. Pret took an existing store and gave it a makeover.

The investment was considerable, given Pret was designing an entirely new menu, producing new assets and training staff, but the same strategy could be employed in other retail markets.

Indeed, this is what retailers do to test the market - pick a flagship store and change it, rolling out to the nation if successful.

6. Pret picked the perfect store

The store chosen was central, in Soho (the lunching ground of London's 'twitterati'), fairly large and with a very visible facade - facing the intersection of four streets.

Pret is predominately a London venture (67% of its trade and 75% of its stores are here, according to Wikipedia), so it was conceivable that the majority of regular Pret customers could visit.

7. Pret dug into the data

Pret published its early findings. Sales were up 70%, the two top-selling products were desserts, and vegan dishes were the big sellers.

Sharing its findings and talking about what a positive atmosphere had been generated in the store and on social media was a way for Pret to validate its audience and keep the momentum going.

8. Pret created a conversation

Well, the public spoke and now Veggie Pret is staying open all summer - why would the brand look a gift horse in the mouth?

Pret has well and truly laid down a marker for innovation in its sector. The brand is now asking its customers, 'what should we do next?' Perhaps the concept will be rolled out?

The question for retailers is who might mirror this success and get brand-bang for its buck, whilst also testing a new concept?

It's difficult to do, as new product development is prohibitive for most retailers. And though high street brands spring to mind that could achieve buzz like this, finding the right angle is key.

Some trends do inspire new ranges that become departmental pop-ups, of a sort, such as the addition of ath-leisure wear to many apparel retailer stores (Primark, Topshop etc).

Indeed, Selfridges' Body Studio, opened in Spring 2016, is probably the best recent example of destination pop-up mentality.

Honourable tip of the hat to Lidl, too, for its Duluxe pop-up.

 tag:econsultancy.com,2008:Report/4175 2016-06-30T09:28:00+01:00 2016-06-30T09:28:00+01:00 The Convergence of Marketing and Sales
The Convergence of Marketing and Sales report provides a framework to assist a manager's journey in deciding whether or not to converge marketing and sales. Designed to be a companion and thought-provoker, the guide is written in two parts.

What's in the report?

Part 1 sets the scene, framing marketing and sales in different ways - from the path to purchase in the mind of the customer, to the marketing and sales process in the mind of the vendor, and the changing role of marketing and sales in a digitally networked world.

Part 2 outlines our framework, split into the following key steps:

Strategy development

Diagnosis - the research and obstacle definition that needs to precede all strategy development. We consider four key topics:

 Process design. Diagnosis focused on current processes used by marketing and sales and how they differ from the ideal.

 Content management. Diagnosis focused on current content used by marketing and sales and how they differ from ideal.

 Competitor analysis. Analysis of how to gain competitive advantage.

 Measurement planning. What measurements do we need to put in place to indicate if our strategy is working and do we need to refine and optimise the actions we are taking?

Insights and action - what insights have come from the above diagnoses and how can we convert these insights into coherent actions to overcome obstacles and achieve our strategic goal? (We identify Key Actions at the end of each topic.)

Strategy deployment

Team organisation. How, when we roll out this convergence strategy for marketing and sales, do we take two teams with different cultures and different ways of working and turn them into a single team?

Written by experienced consultant Dr Mike Baxter, who has led consultant teams on many of Econsultancy's digital transformation projects, the report aims to identify best practice approaches and techniques. The report also includes real-life examples illustrating how marketing and sales have a pivotal role in digital transformation.

How can we help?

Our Digital Transformation team regularly supports leading organisations to drive forward organisational change. Our Digital Maturity Audit is often the first step in this journey, providing you with a clear framework to:

Understand critical capability gaps.

Prioritise key projects and areas for development.

Validate business cases for investment.

If you want to find out more about the Digital Maturity Audit and how we can help, please don't hesitate to get in touch by emailing email@example.com or calling us on +44 (0)20 3199 8475.

Box Office Guru Wrapup: Harry Potter Breaks Weekend Records
This weekend, box office records of all kinds were demolished by the wildly anticipated franchise closer Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, which generated the biggest opening in Hollywood history. The eighth and final chapter in the decade-long fantasy series opened to an eye-popping $168.6M from North America, according to estimates, plus an additional $307M from overseas markets which began running the film on Wednesday leading to a scorching worldwide launch of $475.6M. All three figures broke the all-time records beating The Dark Knight's $158.4M domestic opening weekend in July 2008, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' $260.4M international bow this past May, and Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince's $394M global debut in July 2009.Back to Article

Hot answers tagged printing
We usually use print style sheets (<link rel="stylesheet" href="print.css" type="text/css" media="print" />) to do this. Check this guide: http://www.webcredible.co.uk/user-friendly-resources/css/print-stylesheet.shtml I know Muhimbi has a good third party PDF generator, but I havent tried it.
As another quick, out of the box idea for a solution, add IsDlg=1 to the URL of your desired List view. It'll use a minimalist masterpage designed for use in Dialogs, but also includes a condensed view of the ribbon.
An out of the box approach is to open the document library in Windows Explorer (Actions -> Open with Windows Explorer) select the desired files and right click on them. Then select the print option from the right click menu.
To hide it during Print, you can use the following CSS: @media print { div#suiteBar { display: none; } }
It is not a good option if you require generic print functionality but SQL Reporting Services is great for building custom reports and it comes with different built in export functions. However it requires some extra work eg. you need to build your reports separately, you need to take care of integration etc. so maybe it is overkill for your requirements. ...
The easiest, non intrusive approach i usually recommend for printing, is having a dedicated CSS for this purpose that would hide unwanted navigation and other controls. Add a new CSS link with media="print" and the browser will take care of the rest. <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/_layouts/1033/styles/print.css" media="print" />
If you need to print documents too then there is nothing out of the box, you will probably be limited to doing something custom or getting a third party solution. I found this on codeplex but it only works for 2007. You might be able to use it as a base for a 2010 version though? If it's just list data then you can export it to Excel and print from there.
This can be achieved to a certain extent if you, for example, create a list view with appropriately formatted list items and a SharePoint Designer custom action with a javascript like javascript:{ (function() { var myctx = SP.ClientContext.get_current(), selected = SP.ListOperation.Selection.getSelectedItems(myctx), list = []; for (var item in ...
We've used this in 2007, I don't see any mention of an upgrade yet. For web part pages, Christophe has a slick print option in his easy tabs script.
One option is to use an alternate CSS to modify the print view of SharePoint pages. By stripping out much of the SharePoint specific stuff, and using special tags in your HTML columns you may be able to load it successfully into word (or just print directly). Some custom options to get to word: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/...
For printing Lists you can use the http://spprintlistbutton.codeplex.com/.
I don't know if this will work for 2007, as 2007 has no printing option. You'll need to use the browser printing options that you can access.

If you have troubles since the update to WordPress 4.5 please read this post before opening a new thread.
Is it possible to let users edit their own portfolio page? I tried to with Role Scoper, without success….
Any suggestions?
Figured it out….
With the UserAccessManager and Adminimize plugin it works wonderful.
Every portfolio a separate categoryname, define every user (author) as a group linked to the specific categoryname.
With Adminimize I removed for the role "author" all the other links to pages, posts, etc, so there is no confusing about all the other buttons in the admin area….
The topic 'Portfolio edit by user' is closed to new replies.

I have a More Fields box that has a number of fields in it.
Is it possible to set something up that when the box has been completed for the first time, there is the option to then add another one?
E.g. box is called "Show information".
Fields are; "Show name, show time, show length".
This box is used by a Post. But ideally I would like to be able to add multiple show information pieces to a single post.

Well of course it won't exactly be extinct as bullion holders and jewelry owners will still exist. What the USGS means it will be the first element to be extinct in the sense as NOTHING will be left to be mined!
The USGS and other sources state that silver will become so difficult to mine that it will not be profitable to mine without a large price increase. Higher diesel fuel costs and lower ore grade are making silver production more difficult forcing mine closures each month.
We currently have about 15 years left of Silver in the planet, but we only have about 7-8 years left of economically feasible Silver available for extraction. So combined with Silver being far rarer than Gold in investment form, prices need to increase 1000% before dedicated Silver mining operations start and the world is now buying 35 times more Silver than Gold, the next 1-5 years are going to be extremely interesting.
We shall see. Especially as more and more stackers continue to buy up supply... I expect the numbers to continue to grow.... I plan never to stop. Not until I see Triple digits. Money is easily printed. Mining a material so in demand as silver is is not so easily gotten. As for now they can manipulate the price of the mining by calling it a By product... But how long will that last ? What will be very interesting is to see if the mining of silver starts to retract as more of the metal gets harder to mine. So lets just see them keep this pace up. Also lets see the recycling numbers keep pace as well.....
you started out fine, something somewhat verifiable and accurate.
then ended up saying only 15 years of silver left. Of course implict in that statement is the reality it would take billions to get that last silver, but somehow that doesn't seem to bother folks...they will say it anyway.
I also don't think the USGS said "silver will so difficult to mine it will not be profitable without a large price increase"
I think you said that.
I don't think the USGS said that, they have technical folks who would not say something that foolish. I think this is another one of many AG urban legends copied from one blog site to another.
That said, post a search term that will lead us to the USGS statement.
You must work for the government!
You spout about stuff you know nothing about!
1-silver already is lower than production costs!
2-if the price don't go up there will be no silver in a couple of years not the 6 people say!
3 If miners don't make money and are now losing money how can they keep producing it?
Silver will never ru out it will cease to be mined!
No difference if it isn't mined there wont be any now will there?
The oil people convinced Jimmie Carter the World would be out of oil by 1985 too...

William Peace University Theatre To Host Into The Woods Sneak Peek Media Performance On Feb. 12By William Peace University on January 31, 2013 4:42 pm
Four-Year Baccalaureate University To Hold
Special Media Night For Musical In The Leggett Theatre
RALEIGH, N.C. – William Peace University (http://www.peace.edu), a private four-year university located in downtown Raleigh, has announced it will hold a special sneak peek media night performance of Into the Woods on Tuesday, Feb. 12 at 7:30 p.m. in the Leggett Theatre, located in the university's Main Building at 15 E. Peace St. The performance will offer local-area media and news organizations the opportunity to photograph and interview the cast and directors of the musical. While the videotaping or other video or audio recording of this production is strictly prohibited, video interviews with cast members are permitted. A reception will follow. To attend the special media night performance, RSVP by Monday, Feb. 11 to email@example.com with "Media Night" in the subject line.
Presented through special arrangement with the Musical Theatre International (MTI), Into The Woods features music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim a book by James Lapine, and is directed by Jason Dula, assistant professor of musical theatre for William Peace University. The original Broadway production in 1987 won three Tony Awards, including for Best Score and Best Book.
"The William Peace University Theatre is delighted to present Into The Woods to local media, as we are sure that all will be enthralled by this imaginative take on classic fairy tale characters," said Debra M. Townsley, Ph.D., president of William Peace University. "Our sneak peak performance will provide attendees with not only a close-up look to astounding theatrics, but an opportunity to gain personal, in-depth interviews with the cast and directors that bring this show to life."
Into The Woods was originally directed on Broadway by James Lapine. The original Broadway production was by Heidi Landesman, Rocco Landesman, Rick Steiner, M. Anthony Fisher, Frederick H. Mayerson and Jujamcyn Theatres. Jonathan Tunick led the orchestrations, and the musical was originally produced by the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego.
William Peace University is located in the heart of Raleigh, North Carolina. It was founded in 1857 as Peace Institute, offering education for boys and girls in primary grades and to women from high school to college. Peace, an all-women's college, became a four-year baccalaureate college and graduated its first bachelor's students in August of 1996. Exclusively an all-women's institution for its first 152 years, Peace began offering coeducational evening courses through the William Peace School of Professional Studies in 2009. In 2011, Peace College transitioned to William Peace University and welcomed its first coeducational class to its day program in fall 2012. Its mission is to prepare students for careers in the organizations of tomorrow. On average, more than 90 percent of the university's graduates are placed in jobs or graduate school within one year of graduation. For more information, please visit http://www.peace.edu.

DaveM.Jul 3, 2005Good graphics, nice blend of powers, easy to handle controls ... I've only played it a few hours but I really like what I see. Looking forward to seeing the movie now.
Awards & Rankings
#86 Most Discussed Xbox Game of 2005
But more importantly, you do get to 'be' the Fantastic 4 and experiment with some really rather excellent superpowers, and the game isn't so bad that a serious fan couldn't overlook its flaws.
The curse of movie to video games conversions strikes again, as there's nothing fantastic or memorable about this repetitive and generic actioner.
AceGamezUnless you're a huge Fantastic Four nut I would recommend you play a different beat 'em up game, as this one is feels absolutely ancient and offers nothing new that we haven't seen before and many things we shouldn't see anymore.

My old dealer would be proud of the drug cocktail I just took for my back pain.
Send us your Text From Last Night!
Another development in my life...I think I pulled a muscle in my neck from vomiting this weekend.
we just talked about our morning and what we were doing for the day and he handed me the addies and i took $50 out of my bra in front of a bunch of frat guys. so the mornings going really well
I'm daydrinking whiskey in a princess hat
She sent me a pic wearing only my batman cape. She stole my cape dude!
So here's a brief summary of my weekend: last night I drank four glasses of Death Punch, grabbed the toaster, said "This is mine", put it in my pants and walked out the front door.
Please don't call my dad a fuckpuppet, I feel like that would be awkward to explain later.
I just slipped on ice and peed on my pea coat. There's a pun there but I'm too sad to make it
It's like the bat signal. He only texts me when I'm naked.
You gave him that scrunchie you made and called it your "sex offering".
I need vitamin water and Jesus :/
idk man, I was fucked up and eating fried rice at the grocery store, tried to wave at her but she just looked concerned at me.
We smoked with this guy who looked just like Hyde from that 70's show in an alley. It was a divine moment in my life.
You know, I think when I have a lot of free time, thats when I pick up odd lovers. Maybe keeping busy is key to not using my vagina
There are both cum and chocolate stains on my sheets. Can't decide whether this is a new low or a new high.
Man, I meant to go dancing, but accidentally took mushrooms and just threw the frisbee in the park
Surprise ending
I just woke up naked next to a GetGo sandwich and I can hear my cats are eating my combos. So that's my life.
I'm pretty sure male strippers are the last things I need in my life right now.
fell down stairs ended up in underground bar now im dancing with trannies and best night of my life. lines of coke
This is the drunkest I've ever been at a chili's
So I bet a guy he could drink two irish car bombs faster than me and I lost. now he gets to name our first son. sory.
This snow needs to melt so I can get wasted on someones front lawn
Well sure, my hetero side is thrilled, but my gay side is soooo judging
because of daylight savings time I lost an hour of sex with an incredibly hot guy last night. thanks a lot farmers.
An old white couple caught us smoking the foot long. THE LOOK ON THEIR FACES.
if anyone knows where my shirt is please let me know and if you know why I don't have my own shirt please also let me know. also do any of you know why I'm missing a bra wire?
I thanked him for the booty call offer but told him I'd rather just do it myself
I think your husband is breaking up with me...

Stanford University Patent Infringement Case Is Dismissed and University Learns Lesson in Drafting Assignment Agreements
By Adrienne Baker – Edited by Anthony Kammer
Bd. of Trs. v. Roche Molecular Sys., Inc., 2008-1509, -1510 (CAFC Sept. 30, 2009) Opinion
On September 30, the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC") affirmed in part, vacated in part, and remanded with instructions the District Court for the Northern District of California decision. The lower court's decision held several Stanford University patents invalid for obviousness, dismissed Roche's counterclaim for judgment on ownership, and declined to consider Roche's affirmative defense based on ownership. The CAFC vacated the lower court's decision that Stanford's patents were invalid and ruled that the University did not have standing to sue, because of contract language indicating that the patent rights belong to an outside corporation. Additionally, the CAFC affirmed the lower court's decision that Roche's counterclaim for judgment on ownership was barred due to a four-year statute of limitations. However, unlike the lower court, the CAFC held that statute of limitations does not preclude a party from raising affirmative defenses.
PatentlyO provides an overview of the case. Inside Higher Ed expressed surprise that the case turns on the language of Stanford's assignment agreement and not on other substantive issues, such as the interplay with federal Bayh-Dole Act and the bona fide purchaser arguments. (more…)
