After the First Bell: Capturing the Next Wave of Back-to-School Spending | Reimagining Retail

On today’s podcast, we discuss how to make the most of the back-to-school season, including where post–first-day spending is happening, how less obvious back-to-school brands can capitalize on the season, and whether to double down, scale back, or simply adjust classic back-to-school tactics. Tune in for a discussion featuring Vice President of Content and host Suzy Davidkhanian, along with Analysts Arielle Feger and Rachel Wolff. Subscribe to EMARKETER's newsletters.
