In their words
Advertising is the new rent. Treat it just like that. If you want to have a successful online store you're gonna spend a fixed amount on your advertising month-over-month.
Online and offline is the new norm. Every one of us in this room has an expectation that when I buy online I should be able to pick it up in-store, or ideally do a return in-store.
The staff become incredibly valuable in terms of them actually adding more to the shopping experience.
