Shownotes

In this episode of The Clopen Effect, we tackled the first seven HUGE changes we could see in retail over the next five years.

We’re talking AI becoming the personal shopper, stores becoming more experiential, employees working alongside AI, smarter shelves, predictive inventory, the explosion of retail media, and personalization that could get a little too personal.

Retail is changing fast, and the question isn't just what technology can do. It's what these changes will mean for the people working in retail.

This is only Part One.

The Artificial Takeover is coming, and retail is going to look very different.

Listen to the episode today and tell us: Which of these changes do you think will impact retail the most?
