Fast Five
Brought to you by :

Hello Omni Talk Fans! Today is Prime Day, the ultimate made-up retail holiday that exists only to bury Amazon further into the minds of consumers’ collective consciousnesses worldwide. 

What’s on your Prime Day shopping list this year?

One thing that likely isn’t, and nor does it need to be because it is FREE, is the upcoming Home Delivery World Conference in Philly this year.

The conference is a who’s who in supply chain, with over 5,000 attendees and over 100 conference sessions to attend, including the likes of keynotes from the Chief Supply Chain Officers from Ulta and Best Buy, just to name a few.

Anne and I will be attending and moderating panels onstage and hope to see you there!
