@@yellowblanka6058 A friend of mine who enjoys both Starbucks and home-made specialty coffee explained it to me as follows: people don't go to Starbucks to enjoy coffee, people go to Starbucks to enjoy the atmosphere of a coffeeshop while knowing that you will always have a place with a functioning Wi-Fi, decent bathrooms, and reliable service with loyalty programs. From students who periodically have group study sessions, to a WFH worker who is tired of their home office and works at a coffeeshop once or twice a week. As far as Starbucks locations are concerned, one of their biggest advantages (in Korea anyway) is that their bathrooms are always clean, which is an incredible achievement since coffeeshops historically always had disgusting bathrooms (with Caffeine being a diuretic and all). Starbucks feels clean, serious, and with pretty decent drinks as long as you're getting a dessert drink (which is what most people get when they stay in) and not a Latte or an Americano (which is what most people get when they get coffee to-go).

I can imagine how Chick-fil-a workers feel motivated by having not to work on Sundays, such a great policy of the company. And it does not seem they lose customers due to this policy because the restaurants are crowded the rest of the week. Win-win philosophy for both the company and the workforce.

I visited Bed, Bath and Beyond at both their new locations at College and Yonge in Toronto, the below-ground trial and the huge above-ground when the flashy new building opened, when they were new. They looked totally clueless: utterly routine product that you could buy anywhere -- half a dozen large trusted companies within a ten minute walk -- at simply inane sky-high prices. I was the only person in the place both times. not even any visible staff, and I saw exactly nothing I was tempted to buy. I bought new pillows and pillow-cases recently, at their competitor in the building next door. Sears has not been a department store for a generation: I don't know when the switch happened, but they saw the writing on the wall and converted themselves into a landlord for individual businesses which disguised themselves as Sears departments. I.e., where Sears once sold pillows, now there would be an eager small investor running her, often a young lady, own pillow stand. That looks like a good idea to me, and it may have been. One problem is, they were constrained to working in their own old, usually multi-storey, building, while an investor who thought, say, pillows were a good venture had the choice of going anywhere. I dunno.

It's wsj, not some unqualified guy throwing together a video. Ofc it's going to be pretty refined and thorough. Also, since you're commenting, you have a yt account. One which tailors suggestions based on what you've engaged with in the past. It's hardly a random process. I don't mean to come off as condescending, it's just that certain phenomena aren't nearly as mysterious as some would believe, and looked at in a certain way, are almost entirely probable and predictable. For instance, some would call running into an old friend you haven't seen in yrs 'random'. But, how many people live in your town that you know, and how many strangers do you see on a typical day? You're bound to run into an old friend eventually, it's not weird in the slightest, and could even be calculated statistically. If you picked a name out of a hat and said "I'll see them tmo at 2:18pm at the corner of x and y street", then it happened, now that would be noteworthy. Even that would be nothing more than coincidence (albeit an amazing one) that the odds of could be figured out. But yea, it was a good vid tho 😂 sorry for the rant.

Finally, some insights into the strategies behind major brands. It's about time CEOs and business leaders shared their approaches.

Closing on Sunday really does give more business on Monday. My family’s business closes Sunday. So Monday and saturdays are our busiest days. Whereas other restaurants close mondays because it’s a slow day generally

@redjoker365

Exactly, Dollar General has deals with many brands to make special sizes just for them which look similar in size to the same brands sold in grocery stores, but are in fact smaller/lighter. They are correctly labeled with their actual weight so they're not *LEGALLY* misleading, but they walk right up to the line to confuse consumers. Dollar General also doesn't just open stores in rural areas, they focus on food deserts, so there are plenty of poor urban and suburban areas with several Dollar Generals. Dollar General also just lost a class-action lawsuit over mislabeling prices, where prices at the register were higher than on the shelves, and had been doing so for several years

I would like to see one on Walmart, my impression could be false but it seems like they’re in the decline in that their reputation has become this untidy, grimy, cheap place. From potholes in the parking lot, to shopping carts that pull to the left, to items just left in random places all over the store. I’d use Aldi for reference since they also offer cheap products but they give off the impression of higher quality (in the U.S.) by using warmer lighting, an eco friendly mission, and it really seems they sell to a different crowd of customers as a result. In Germany atleast it seemed like Aldi was more like a cross between a Kroger and a dollar General though it’s not really fair to compare their stores in Germany to those in the U.S. since Aldi South owns the rights to their international stores whereas the stores in places like Berlin (the one I went to) was owned by Aldi North. What is interesting to note is that Aldi carried over the concept of people at checkout being able to sit down which was everywhere in Germany, they also focus on small selection which allows them to offer more products in a smaller store, another thing common in Germany.

The BEST Chic fil-A was the original one that opened in Atlanta at Greenbriar Mall and recently closed. Please take that recipe and apply it to your other stores because they are ALL too salty and that one store was perfect! My 84 year old Dad was so disappointed when it closed in May of 2023.

Its in the first chapters of “richest man in babylon” shrink your options to your customers to a couple and sales always go up. Its fundamentals in every sales game, the more options and varieties you mention the longer the customer spends thinking about which option to go with ending in a “ill think about it” and no sale slafter spending much time. Instead bring out 2 or maybe 3 and say choose one, this mentally helps them narrow down their selection time and much easier to then go for the assumption close.

Next time I'd like to see WSJ's more balanced investigation into such "successful" business strategies. E.g.: What are the sources of the companies' products (e.g. coffee beans, wood, etc.)? To what extent do they ensure environmental protection and fair trade practices? How do they dispose of unsold product and non-biodegradable waste? What are their policies on unionization? What are their minimum wages? To what extent do they limit work hours to the effect of denying employees the full, boasted benefits?

Yeah big props on making these Himalayan sea salt potato chips , which are practically a Health Food ( only two ingredients in the science of Himalayan sea salt is surprisingly good for your body, combined with a chip that isn't greasy) compared to other potato chips which are generally a deficit in your healthy eating column for the day😂 So huge props for them figuring out such a cost-saving mode of operation, but even more big things to them for developing for demanding products that are considerably more healthy for people. And as always, thank you Costco for those five-dollar hot cooked chickens that have such an amazing seasoning that seems to go with anything we add the chicken to

Love these economics videos. Thanks ❤🇮🇪

I'm always fascinated by the success stories of these companies. Their unique business strategies offer valuable insights for entrepreneurs and business enthusiasts.

Everyone is super genuinely nice at chik -fila. Great service overall . Every store follows the same guidelines

The most important thing that should be on everyone’s mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.

@TandraHeatherton My consultant is Jim Alan Owen, I found him on a CNBC interview where he was featured and reached out to him afterwards. He has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I focus on. I basically follow his trade pattern and haven’t regretted doing so

The secret recipe of Chick fil A is monosodium glutamate(MSG), I am surprised they didn't mention it!

@@d9918 Yes, the foods we tend to like have a lot of natural glutamate in them, such as tomatoes, parm cheese for two examples. I notice that pre-prepared foods have it too, in the form of "yeast extract".

Ive bought chic fila salads about 8 times since the beginning of this month, always quick and fresh, free refills on the lemonade, they will always have my business!

Love Chick-fil-A!

This is some quality corporate schilling! Lol. All half joking aside, quite and interesting expose on some of the fastest growing brand and how or why they would like to be viewed the way they are.

This is a great format,very informative,thanks!😊

Thank you for these insights, what I missed though is some kind of conclusion at the end of each chapter. The endings feel rushed, like there was more to it but it was cut out for some reason

Awesome, Interesting how this big corporations and retailers strategies business work giving us a reasonable and competitive prices to shop around for good affordable and quality products.👍👏✌️🇺🇲💯

their money making strategy is advertising together in wsj in this video that saves their money

I love a "simple" Menu! Chick fil A is quality and service in every step! I respect closed on sundays

In-N-Out burger has been practicing the drive thru/service tablet for a couple of decades now; Chick-fil-A's customer service/food quality practices reminds me of the parallels between the two companies wrt In-N-Out. I wish more fast food/restaurants had the same thought processes. I don't eat fast food very often, however, there are only two fast food places that I would go to 😉

I love the Home Depot jingle

All the reasons listed for Costco success is why I stopped going. I got so tired of trying to find my usual products. I would always have to ask what asle number they moved my stuff to one week from the next. Just wanted to get in and get out but they try to make that as hard a possible. Once Google stopped doing delivery from Costco I cut up my membership.

Chick-fil-A NEED TO BRING BACK THAT WONDERFUL COLESLAW, which is the BEST ever made in a restaurant. I never liked coleslaw until I tasted their FINELY CHOPPED one. The SECOND best is at LONG JOHN SILVER'S, which is the ONLY reason I go to Long John Silver's drive-thru....just to BUY their COLESLAW to eat with OTHER meals LOL. It's just the best VEGETABLE SIDE DISH to eat with chicken, ESPECIALLY a chicken sandwich, or FRIED meats & ANY Barbecue 😍😁

Any company that encourages employees to purchase shares, and financially is willing to help out (like Costco) is always going to do extremely well as the majority of shares are actually owned by the workers and not by billionaire inbred families.

I was so enjoying the chick-fil-A section i was hoping the whole video was about them

This helps explain even more of why I love Chick-fil-A and absolutely hate shopping at Costco.

Thank you to the journalists.

I was born the same year as Chick-fill-A and I’ve never ever eaten there. Guess I’ll put it tentatively on my bucket list.

I've stopped going to Starbucks; it's not a good value. The last time I went, it was $11 bucks for a latte and a re-heated sandwich. Too much for re-heated food.

I almost agree with the Costci segment. Unfortunately they had a CEO change and they have raised their prices like every other retailer. A 4 pack of butter was $8.99 now it's $14.99. I have seen price increases throughout the store.

Crocs were most popular to me around 2011 when I had a pair and everyone else around me seemed to too
