In today’s Omni Talk Retail Fast Five Podcast, sponsored by Microsoft, the A&M Consumer and Retail Group, Takeoff, Sezzle, and Silk, A&MCRG's Jonathan Sharp and Billy Christensen stopped by to discuss:
- Target's new larger format store and what it means in the long-run amid its lackluster earnings report this week.
- Gap crying, "Uncle," as it decides to open its own shop on Amazon.
- TikTok piloting in-app commerce and whether they will be any more successful at it than Instagram (Anne seems to think so).
- Nike's launch of its new marketplace for digital goods, .Swoosh.
- And finished off with a discussion about Victoria's Secret's new partnership with Verifyt and if it signals a new era for fit tech or just more customer frustration.
There's all that, plus dragon masks at British sporting events, hypercolor t-shirts, and everyone's favorite Turkey Day treat that Anne would gladly take a pass on -- gravy, mmm mmm good!

In this latest episode of the Omni Talk Retail Spotlight Series, ToolsGroup CEO Inna Kuznetzova joins Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga to discuss how retailers can better align their inventory forecasting and allocation in record time.
Together the three of them discuss:
– Why inventory planning and allocation can be thought of much like a "Waze Map" or similarly designed system that leverages machine learning to provide real-time updates and insights
- How easy it is to implement improvements to planning and allocation within retailers today
- And how one large footwear and apparel retailer drastically improved its Black Friday performance in just six months.
