EP 103: Last Mile Fulfillment Strategies with Brittain Ladd
In Episode 103 of the Lion’s Share Marketing Podcast, Tyler and Jon discuss TikTok & Samsung’s recent partnership in which you can now stream and navigate through the app on your Samsung Smart TV in Europe. They go on to explain that Samsung is trying to capitalize on TikTok’s success by allowing its users to experience the already addicting app on a larger screen. Marketers now have a huge opportunity (literally!) to leverage their TikTok ads on TV.
Then Tyler introduces Brittain Ladd, Chief Marketing Officer & Supply Chain Manager for Pulse Integration. Pulse Integration leverages different types of technologies to help companies with Micro-Fulfillment, Order Fulfillment, Grocery Fulfillment, and more. Brittain explains that his role is to provide consulting to retailers and help them identify their optimal strategy. In this podcast, the two go in-depth on Last Mile Fulfillment strategies and how companies need to implement a new business model to align with the shift in consumer behavior.
