The Three Next Wave Retail Growth Technologies
By Tony D'Onofrio, Global Retail Influencer
This post will introduce you to what I believe are the top 3 next wave retail
growth technologies. These solutions have both security and operational
applications, but because I am attending the Retail Industry Leaders Association
(RILA)
Asset Protection
conference starting this weekend, some security aspects
will be emphasized.
You Can Run, but You Cannot Hide
Walking through Paris on a Saturday a couple weeks ago and seeing all the major
brands with boarded-up windows was a stark reminder that violence is a global
challenge. There is consensus when I ask the question either directly or in
executive forums that I have hosted around the world that retail violence is
what keeps most security professionals up at night.
In the United States, violence in retail stores has been a growing issue for
some time. In 2018,
D&D Daily reported the USA retail industry had 488 violent deaths, up 15%
from the previous year. Forty-two percent of the deaths were customers and 19%
were store associates.
Quarterly comparisons for
Q1/2019 had deaths up 12% with 50% being customers
and 22% being store associates.

The Hard Truth About Soft Skills
"Hard skills will get you the interview - soft skills will get you the job."
"We have all seen situations where the decision to hire—when two or more
candidates present the same level of hard skills' strength—is made with soft
skills as the differentiator."
"The most important soft skill is communication. It's the foundation of
every other soft skill. "In my experience, communication skills are paramount to
one's capability to execute and deliver the day-to-day requirements of
leadership and having oversight for a team, small or large," Bayne says.
"In this fast-paced business environment, the ability to communicate clear and
concise messages is crucially important," Lammert explains.
"In general, those who achieve the greatest success in their careers have a
genuine interest in those around them and are skilled in communicating,"
Snipes says.
Besides communication skills, emotional intelligence has become an
important attribute for candidates in the current job market.
Emotional intelligence (often abbreviated as EQ) is the ability to perceive
another's emotions, reactions and perspective, and to handle interpersonal
relationships judiciously and empathetically. In the world of management, it has
many applications. These include working well as a teammate, empathetic
listening, building consensus and an ability to be persuasive and to motivate.

Opioid company executives found guilty of racketeering
Five top executives of Insys Therapeutics -- maker of Subsys, a version of the
extremely powerful synthetic opioid fentanyl -- were found guilty Thursday on
federal racketeering charges for bribing doctors to prescribe the painkiller to
people who didn't need it. They were also convicted of defrauding Medicare and
private insurance.
The trial put on display sales tactics such as lap dances to lure doctors and a
company vice president who dressed as a Subsys bottle and rapped during a
company promo.
The jury took 15 days to reach its verdict against the executives, including
founder and one-time billionaire John Kapoor. Other defendants include Richard
Simon, 48, the former national director of sales; Sunrise Lee, 38, a former
regional sales director; Joseph Rowan, 45, a former regional sales director; and
Michael Gurry, 55, the former vice president of managed markets.

How Card-Not-Present Fraud and Chargebacks Impact Restaurant Operators
More and more restaurants offer delivery and “buy-online, pick up in-store,” or
BOPUS, as it’s increasingly described. Many even have their own branded mobile
app to streamline the customer experience.
More automation in the ordering and checkout process, combined with reduced
face-to-face interaction between cardholders and merchants, can open the door
for errors, misunderstandings and even criminal fraud. Errors and fraud in
card-not-present transactions inevitably lead to chargebacks.
This change in the restaurant industry landscape was sudden and dramatic. If we
look at
data as recent as 2013, we see merchants in the food and beverage industry
reported almost no chargebacks. Things looked very different, though, when we
conducted our
State of Chargebacks 2018 survey just five years later.
Our study found that 28 percent of respondents in the food and beverage industry
had a chargeback rate between 0.5 and 1 percent of all transactions. One in ten
respondents had a chargeback rate above 1 percent.

Walmart's New Workplace: Gold Stars, ‘Attitude Cards’ and Cheers
Walmart in some 75 stores is piloting a new store-level management structure
it's calling "Great Workplace," Bloomberg, and other media outlets, reported.
The changes entail having smaller teams taking on more responsibility and
getting more training, with pay jumps in hourly wages and salaries for
supervisors, according to the report.
The new approach is now centered at the retail giant's Neighborhood Market
grocery stores, which are smaller than its flagships and its supercenters, but
next month will expand to certain departments at 50 of those larger locations.

Walmart employees share the wildest returns they've ever seen
Walmart employees are no strangers to bizarre returns. The company's returns
policy varies based on department and whether or not you've made your purchase
online or in the store. But a number of Walmart employees have spoken to
Business Insider about their run-ins with "serial returners," fraudsters, and
shoppers who brought back gross, used products.
Here are some of the most ridiculous returns that Walmart employees said they've
seen:
● A Walmart associate saw a shopper return "a pair of underwear that was already
worn."
● A Walmart associate from Tennessee described seeing a customer return a
product from Kmart. "It was accepted with the Kmart sticker on it," the
associate said.
● A Walmart associate said they often witness a group come in to return
expensive electric toothbrushes, claiming that "they were a gift from my
mom/sister/boyfriend but I don't need it."
● A different Walmart associate said they saw someone try to get a refund on "a
gallon of out-of-date milk from Kroger."
● An employee said that they'd received a "used" positive pregnancy test at the
returns desk.
● One Walmart associate described seeing numerous air conditioners being
returned after the summer months, as well as electric heaters brought back for a
refund in the spring.

California startup sells 'world's first' bulletproof hoodie, including kids
sizes
Wonder Hoodie, a southern California startup, sells a product its founder wishes
didn't have to exist-- a bulletproof hoodie.
Like many young tech workers, 25-year-old Vy Tran decided to create something
she needed but couldn't find. In 2016, her neighbor in her hometown of Seattle,
was walking home when a man shot her dead, after an attempted robbery.
With a background in material science, she prototyped designs and sent them for
testing. When her products met National Institute of Justice requirements for
body armor, she founded her company in 2018 and started selling the gear-- a
hoodie, a jean jacket, a vest and other accessories that start at $450.
The reality of getting caught in random gunfire has given rise to an industry of
bulletproof gear, designed for people who likely never thought about tactical
armor in the past -- parents, teachers, kids. You can now find bulletproof
backpacks, portable shelters and plate inserts all over the web.

Post Office wants to shift focus to package deliveries
The U.S. Postal Service has introduced a plan that would see it cutting mail
delivery from six to five days a week while expanding packaging deliveries to
seven days. The move, according to the USPS, would better reflect market
conditions and save billions of dollars a year. Republican and Democratic
members of Congress, however, are opposed to making a change to mail deliveries.

Facebook Building Cryptocurrency-Based Payments System
Pitch to retailers includes break on transaction fees
Facebook Inc. is recruiting dozens of financial firms and online merchants to
help launch a cryptocurrency-based payments system on the back of its gigantic
social network.
The effort, should it succeed, threatens to upend the traditional, lucrative
plumbing of e-commerce and would likely be the most mainstream application
yet of cryptocurrency. It comes as the social-media giant is under intense
pressure from regulators, users and shareholders to address privacy
shortcomings.
At the heart of the initiative, under way for more than a year and code-named
Project Libra, is a digital coin that its users could send to each other and use
to make purchases both on Facebook and across the internet, according to people
familiar with the matter.
The pitch to merchants is a break on fees. Facebook envisions eliminating
swipe and other card processing fees that merchants pay on transactions,
which are typically around 2% to 3% and are collected by banks, payments
processors and networks such as Visa.

Retail and Restaurant POS Attacks: “Why me?”
The attacks are not just of large chains or massive resorts. They experience
problems too. The sad fact is that a lot of small, mom-and-pop retail outlets
and restaurants are attacked and compromised every month.
For the bad-actors, it’s a game of numbers. The more sites they attack; the more
data they steal; the greater the spoils or their efforts. In a recent case,
where we examined a small restaurant POS system, the bad-actors actually
activated the local security controls so that they could keep other attackers
out of the system they compromised.

Assessing Fraud Strategies in E-Commerce
Businesses
Despite a reported increase in fraud budgets,
Experian’s 2019 Global Identity & Fraud Report found 55 percent of
businesses across the globe experienced an increase in online fraud-related
losses, which emphasizes the need for e-commerce merchants to assess the
effectiveness of their card-not-present fraud detection strategies.
According to Chris Ryan, Experian’s senior fraud solutions consultant, the
primary challenge for e-commerce risk professionals is the consumer demand for
convenience. “E-commerce merchants are often limited in the tools that can
be used because of the demand for those tools to be primarily invisible to the
individual consumer.”
When it comes to more covert tools, Ryan said there have been some exciting wins
lately. “For the most part, the activity between the individual and e-retailer
is inconsistent, which makes it harder to collect that data of user behavior on
the merchant side.”
As a result, e-retailers need to rely on a set of layered tools that get to
the right prediction by combining patterns of behavior that are associated with
an identity. “Covert tools that monitor the consumer’s pattern of behavior
everywhere can detect when that behavior diverges from merchant to merchant,”
Ryan said.

Opinion:
Could New eCommerce Fraud Rules Separate the Best
from the Rest in 2019?
Last year, PSD2 and GDPR were the two most prominent topics in the conversations
around data privacy regulations. Now in 2019, the discussion around the
applicable use of consumer information isn't expected to wane - if anything, it
is only getting louder.
The mandated adoption of Strong Consumer Authentication (SCA) is
coming September 2019 as a part of PSD2, requiring additional layers of
authentication to allow specific types of transactions.
By collecting and sharing information behind the scenes during online
transactions, financial institutions and their merchant customers should become
increasingly better at spotting and stopping potential fraud.
However, the standard will also measure the quality of merchants' data and if
too much fraudulent activity has occurred, they'll need to add barriers in the
payments process to right the ship and provide adequate security for customers.
Equally, new PSD2 regulation has clauses that outline if certain fraud rates
aren’t met by card issuers, some transactions on their cards will have to be
authenticated.
Could such requirements establish an even wider divide between the merchants and
issuers that can offer frictionless payments and the ones who can't?

The e-mail world may have sped up the world and allowed people to communicate
virtually instantly, but it's not the forum to resolve issues between people. If
anything, the freedom an email offers insofar as the ability to write whatever
best suits your points and usually with an added pinch of sarcasm may, in fact,
deepen the crevasse and cause more harm. It's much easier to write in solitude
than to face your intended recipient and their immediate response. So the next
time you receive one of those OMG emails, think twice before responding because
you never know who else may be reading and, after all, if you truly want to
resolve an issue with a person, you need to do it the old fashion way -- face to
face.
Just a Thought, Gus
