"We're Getting Catfished by Retail" with Marc Hostovsky

from Slick Talk: The Hospitality Podcast · host Skift

Marc is a self-proclaimed boutique geek and is passionate about the future of retail. After spending nearly 6 years working at Jet.com and then Walmart (acquired Jet.com), he quickly realized that the best product experiences don't happen on screens or shelves, they happen in real moments of use "in the wild".  Marc founded Minoan to help hosts create, and capitalize on, rich moments in their homes, save money on everything they need to buy and spend a fraction of the time on the unsexy things that come along with ordering (tracking, routing, logistics, etc.) An episode you won't want to miss! We mention a ton in regards to Amazon, Airbnb, and Vrbo + thought leaders that have impacted the overall thinking and psychology of making properties a "shoppable" experience - boosting the in-stay & post-stay revenue for hosts, property mangers, and hotels.
