The Impact on Investing Through Consumer Activity With Kristen Gall

Description

Given the recent rates of inflation, it makes sense to think that consumer spending is down. However, in many ways it’s quite the opposite. Kristen Gall, president of Rakuten (formerly Ebates), sits down with Liz to talk about what's she seen in consumer trends in the first few months of the year, what sectors in retail could see a downturn, and what "the great trade down" has to do with consumer spending. Lix offers her take on why “revenge spending” is still relevant, how choices about spending will change, and why the middle is what gets squeezed.

The platform also allows you to read other people's experiences, which can be helpful in determining whether or not to do business with a particular company and you can also read more at https://customerthink.com/5-lessons-from-reviews-to-craft-customer-service/ . The only downside I experienced was the lack of response from the company I complained about, but that's not PissedConsumer's fault. My advice to anyone using this platform is to be as detailed as possible in your complaint and to follow up with the company directly if possible.
