Abstract

The author recounts her contact with Steve Jobs, and the energy that emanated from his innovative spirit, with the same feeling that resurfaced in her from a meeting with the technology company FieldStack, maker of software and systems that can help retailers improve their product flow. The software was developed by Brett Wickard, founder of the first Bull Moose store in Brunswick and FieldStack’s predecessor company ten years ago, and tested in Bull Moose stores. Bull Moose stands out in the inventory metrics of competitors in that product returns for other customers was in the 14%- 20% range, but for Bull Moose the range was in the single digits.
