The 800lb Gorilla & Main Street
Get ready because it's coming to a station near you. Our friends at Walmart are going to "double down" on local television advertising switching dollars from national to local. The "largest retail chain in the world" is going to create 1,500 localized television ads in 2013 and pepper them in 60 markets across the US. While their aim is grocery items you can bet this new strategy will also help bleed "Mom & Pop" on Main Street. Before you hang up the "Out of Business" sign we've got some things you need to do, starting today, to succeed in spite of what the gorilla does.
