We hope they inspire you as much as they do our team at Gustie .

Look for Amazon Pop-Up in your local shopping center, as the tech company deploys its most popular gadgets using the disruptive retail Pop Up Store format.

Coincidentally, an article this week on RetailWire discusses voice assistants
and the future of shopping with voice commerce.

Seems shoppers are growing comfortable using Alexa, Cortana, Google Assistant and Siri for a variety of retail tasks.

Disruptive Retail and the IoT

Would You Shop a Fashion Truck?
This month's issue of
Simply the Best Magazine is devoted to fashion and we are front and center with our article on fashion trucks. A Fashion Truck is a disruptive retail "boutique on wheels" and has the unique advantage of reaching shoppers in many different, and very memorable, ways.

Food Truck Rallies are Coming
So, if a fashion truck is a "boutique on wheels" than a food truck is a "restaurant on wheels" and this time of year, food trucks are showing up everywhere. A Food Truck is a very popular disruptive retail solution with many distinct advantages for its owner/operator.

Trying On Lipstick, Digitally
Karen recently visited Perch Interactive in NYC and enjoyed trying out their retail technologies and digital displays.
In this short You Tube video, she is using the Virtual Artist display for Sephora to try on lipstick colors, digitally. She enjoyed the experience and found the color sampling to be quite realistic and helpful.

We actively test and beta test the leading retail technologies at Gustie .
