The Invite Only Podcast

Over the past couple of weeks, a friend of mine Nick Walter (CEO of a Mixed Reality Company) and I have been recording a pilot podcast.

This is an invite-only episode – we are not pushing out via the usual channels, we are looking for podcast fans to listen and feedback.

FYI: The sound is not perfect & we are working on the flow, however, we debate the food delivery world.

Important Talking Points

  • The evolution of food delivery
  • The impact of food delivery
  • The cost and business impact
  • How habits have shifted
  • Why you probably will want to be tactical on ordering
  • Food box churn issues
  • And importantly, Why I believe dark stores and dark kitchens are the future for so many QSR businesses and new brands

Listen Here:
