DISQUS

Chris Zaharias · 3 years ago

Running an online retail business requires strong execution on a number of fronts (marketing, technology, analytics, etc) and far too few firms get an 'A' grade, but IMO Zappos is one of them. You can fault them for the name of their VC Firm (unless you're French in which case you'll like it) but public firms like BlueNile, RedEnvelope and others would do well to emulate Zappos' day-to-day execution.

I tried to hit the Venture Frogs restaurant last week. Turns out it's been gone two years, but the sign (and some presence in online maps) is still there. Felt like stumbling onto a dead .com site.
