Food retailers should actively engage Amazon Prime members who, according to market research firm GfK research, visit online retail websites more frequently than non-Prime members who use a smartphone, says Christina Pate, senior research director of digital experiences for GfK.
“Prime members are overall heavier online shoppers, so we tracked Prime and non-Prime members over a five-month period and found that Prime members are spending five more hours and visiting 50 more online shopping businesses than non-Prime members, and this extends to grocery categories. For grocery categories, Prime members were more likely to access grocery websites and apps as well.”
Amazon Prime’s subscriber base is estimated to be between 65 million and 80 million, with Amazon generating $6.4 billion in revenue from these shoppers, according to Pate. Fifty-nine percent are female and four in 10 (40%) are ages 55 and older, 36% are 35 to 54 years old and 24% are ages 18 to 34. When it comes to income, 29% of Prime members fall into the more than $100,000 range. Thirty-seven percent fall between $50,000 and $99,000 and 34% earn less than $50,000.
Over the course of the five-month research period, Amazon was the most used shopping touch point with 78% of Prime users visiting the site and/or app versus 72% of non-Prime members.
Thirty-two percent of Prime users visited grocery websites and/or apps compared to 25% of non-Prime members. One-third of Prime users (33%) visited wholesale club sites and/or apps compared to 26% of non-Prime users. When it came to visits to mass merchant sites and apps, 63% of Prime members made visits versus 68% of non-Prime members. Prime members showed a preference for mass merchant apps as opposed to mobile websites, with visit frequency being three times higher for apps.
Pate noted that given the online presence of Prime users, food retailers should enhance their apps and target these shoppers in other ways.
“Prime membership will continue to grow as Amazon keeps adding more benefits,” she said. “There are opportunities for other retailers to engage these online shoppers into their own programs and apps regardless of Prime membership. Prime members still use mass retailer apps so they’re not necessarily just dedicated [exclusively to Amazon]. They’re also more likely to visit apps and sites of club stores who require membership, so those who participate in Prime may be more inclined to also take part in clubs.”

For 3 years Jack Sandeen has worked for Crate Builders, an industrial plant that manufactures and sells high-tech packing containers in an employment-at-will state within the eastern United States. When he was hired, he believed he would receive training that would enable him to move from the factory floor into the supervisor’s role. The company experienced a downturn in revenue, however; and, along with 50 hourly workers, several managerial positions were eliminated. During restructuring, the boss’s son, Darrell Shelton, was appointed head of Jack’s department. There has been friction between Darrell and the rest of the staff. They don’t like the new scheduling and work quotas he has implemented. When Jack complained to Darrell that the required quota was too high, in front of the other workers, Darrell snidely reminded him that he was the supervisor, times were tough, and more people could be let go.
That evening, Jack went with a few of the guys to the local pub. A union organizer was at the bar and overheard the group complaining about Darrell. The organizer told them about their right to representation. He gave them his business card along with a few brochures to take home. The next week, Darrell found one of the brochures on the floor by the locked company bulletin board. The staff saw him crumple it and spike it into the trash can. He turned and glared at Jack. “You think you’re so smart. We’re watching you. We know about your little chat.” He bit back more words then walked into his office and slammed the door.
Several weeks later, Jack was called into the Human Resource Management office. He was informed that his production numbers were low and they needed to cut more staff so he was being let go. Jack asked to see the statistics for the department, but HR said that was proprietary information. When he asked who else was being fired, HR told him that was also private information. The guys at the bar told Jack later that they could not find anyone else who was terminated when he was.
1. True or False: Promoting Jack to supervisor in the last restructuring would have been a legal way to avoid his union participation.
2. True or False: The company can terminate a supervisor at any time for any reason if it does not have other policies or contracts that contradict that flexibility.
3. True or False: Terminating others who were not involved with the union at the same time Jack was let go would support the company’s position in an unfair labor practice charge.
4. True or False: Section 7 rights require the company to terminate those with less than the 3 years seniority Jack has before letting him go.
5. True or False: Darrell’s comments represent Budd’s concept of voice.
For 2011, Bargain Basement Stores reported $11,500 of sales and $5,000 of operating costs (including depreciation). The company has $20,500 of investor-supplied operating assets (or capital), the weighted average cost of that capital (the WACC) was 10%, and the federal-plus-state income tax rate was 40%. What was the firm’s Economic Value Added (EVA), i.e., how much value did management add to stockholders’ wealth during 201
