So how did the extra day in February help you toy retailers? For us, we needed the boost and energy, by offering a once every 4 years special. Customers responded. Our 2024 reflects this pattern: January was down (weaker than forecast) February even (on forecast) March will be up but how much? Then we face a tough April comp. (vs Easter spending). Must be aggressive here. How bout them the LEGO Group ? Up 8% in January commanding 12.5% of the US market (Circana ) Our data has them accelerating and #1 as well. Those coming to ToyFest and perhaps my talk, know your numbers and trends so you can make the most of this important trade show. #toys #toyindustry #toynews #retailindustry #retail #gamesindustry #lego #unstoppableplay #indietoystores #brickandmortar #toyfest tanya margetis

The convergence of technology and sports is an exciting journey, and Augmented Reality (AR) is poised to revolutionize the way we experience our favorite games. 🚀 Imagine watching a match with data-rich overlays, providing real-time player stats and insights on your AR-equipped device. 📊📈 Or even better, visualizing the path of a free-kick as if you were on the field! ⚽🎯 But AR's impact goes beyond the fan experience. It can enhance athlete training with immersive simulations, helping them make split-second decisions under pressure. 🏋️♂️💡 In the sports business, AR opens up new avenues for sponsorship and fan engagement. Think about interactive branded experiences within stadiums or personalized content for fans wherever they are. 🏟️📣 The potential is limitless, and the sports industry is just beginning to scratch the surface of what AR can offer. 🌐🤩 As someone passionate about sports and technology, I'm thrilled to see how AR will shape the future of the games we love. Let's stay tuned for this incredible journey! 🙌🔮 #AugmentedReality #SportsStrategist #SportsTech #Innovation #GameChanger https://lnkd.in/gdp88aez

This has caused major brand disconnect, therefore, it’s crucial for brands to utilise experiences to clearly communicate their purpose.” – Tara Allen M Grey Sounds like something we can definitely get on board with 🙌 Read Tara’s blog, here: https://lnkd.in/ebVQRSvS #experientialmarketing #GFOS24 #Goodwood #automotive #brands #fans
