What happens when a mouse, a keyboard, and a killer in-store experience walk into a Best Buy? A category gets reinvented and a retail team starts clapping. (Yes, that actually happened.)<\/p>\n

On a recent episode of The Color Bar Podcast<\/em> from Sandy Alexander, I had the absolute pleasure of joining our client and longtime collaborator, client and friend, Irma Sandoval<\/strong><\/a>, Head of Channel Marketing at Logitech, to talk about the magic, the mayhem, and the measurable results of creating retail experiences that actually move people<\/em>.<\/p>\n

What We Talked About<\/h3>\n

Here\u2019s the thing: retail isn’t dead, boring<\/em> retail is. Over the course of the episode, Irma and I unpacked:<\/p>\n

THE RETAIL ROLLERCOASTER IS WORTH RIDING.<\/strong> Irma said it best: this work is a rollercoaster.<\/em> There are highs, lows, and plenty of nausea in between. But at the end of the ride, when the campaign\u2019s launched and the aisle transformation is live, you\u2019re smiling, and already getting back in line to do it again. That kind of passion doesn\u2019t come from checking boxes. It comes from caring deeply about the consumer experience and always pushing for more \u2014 more connection, more relevance, more results.<\/p>\n

DREAM-DRIVEN STRATEGY MEETS REAL-WORLD IMPACT.<\/strong> Over the years, we\u2019ve partnered with Irma and the Logitech team to bring big retail ideas to life across stores like Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Costco, Staples, and Micro Center. One standout? A complete category overhaul that transformed how Logitech\u2019s peripherals are merchandised \u2014 from \u201cgood, better, best\u201d to curated experiences like Productivity Zones and Ergo Setups. The result?<\/p>\n

    • A massive<\/em> leap in shopper engagement<\/li>\n
    • Higher average selling prices (ASPs)<\/li>\n
    • Bigger baskets and more inspired buyers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      IT’S NOT ABOUT MORE TECH. IT’S ABOUT MORE MEANING.<\/strong> In a world that often defaults to QR codes and screens, Irma challenged a critical idea: tech shouldn\u2019t just be layered on \u2014 it should enhance the story. Whether it\u2019s a hands-on gaming demo or a display that feels more like a curated outfit than a utility shelf, the power lies in making the consumer feel something. <\/em>The goal? Invite. Inspire. Irresistible. (And maybe throw in a little \u201ciconic\u201d while we\u2019re at it.)<\/p>\n

      RETAIL IS FAR FROM DEAD. IT’S JUST GETTING INTERESTING AGAIN.<\/strong> If you\u2019ve ever doubted whether people still care<\/em> about in-person shopping, let us recap the flagship Micro Center store change your mind. It’s proof that when you build something worth experiencing, people show up.<\/p>\n

        • Merch that’s buzzworthy, immersive, and absolutely irresistible<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          A Few Highlights from the Mic<\/h3>\n

          On the nature of the work:<\/p>\n

          \n

          \u201cWe\u2019ve been on a rollercoaster together \u2014 big dreams, bold risks, sometimes nausea \u2014 but always in pursuit of better experiences.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          On retail strategy:<\/p>\n

          \n

          \u201cYou don\u2019t just repackage products. You rethink the story. Consumers aren\u2019t shopping by specs anymore \u2014 they\u2019re shopping by identity, by purpose, by emotion.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          On channel complexity:<\/p>\n

          \n

          \u201cIt\u2019s not just about your brand showing up well \u2014 it\u2019s about showing up in a way that works in someone else\u2019s environment.<\/em> Best Buy is not Walmart is not Target. Understanding that is everything.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          On results:<\/p>\n

          \n

          \u201cThis wasn\u2019t just a glow-up \u2014 it was a complete category reset. From product placement to display design, we built something that inspired action. And it worked.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
