Friends, remember how much I wanted those Camper Leia sandals in turquoise? These little guys:
But they were $140, plus shipping, boo. However! Weirdly, Gap to the rescue! The mega corp that is Gap/Old Navy/Banana Republic/Athleta now has a website called Piperlime that looks like an attempt to give Zappos a run for its money. And the Leia is on sale for $89.50, with free shipping.
Who has a new pair of kicks? That’s right.
They’re having a 30% off sale this week, and it looks like sales are frequent. Piperlime, check it out. Guys and kids, too.
Somewhat related: The CEO of Zappos has a really good blog. He nails why Twitter is good for business and people, and many of the comments are from presidents/founders/CEOs etc. of companies you’ll recognize. Friendly, enjoyable business blogs are hard to find. Well done, Tony Hsieh. I learned from it that all Zappos employees are given the same 4 week culture training, offered 2k to leave in those first 4 weeks (1% do), and are made to answer the customer service phones for 2 weeks. Every single employee, regardless of position, goes through that. Wow.
