In this episode of Marketing Misfits, Norm Farrar and Kevin King sit down with Mike Robinson, founder of The Eighth Notch, to discuss a fresh approach to logistics and consumer choice. Mike shares his vision for reducing delivery frequency by consolidating shipments, a method that not only saves retailers money but also minimizes the carbon footprint. They delve into the balance between speed and sustainability, and how consumers are becoming more receptive to eco-friendly options. From tales of late-night brainstorming sessions on Norm’s balcony to strategies for cutting down delivery costs and environmental impact, this episode sheds light on how even small changes in logistics can make a big difference for both businesses and the planet.
