Vacation snaps, family pictures, close-ups of your pet—they’re probably all trapped on your phone’s camera roll. After all, when was the last time you made a print let alone framed it? Digital picture frames allow you to copy images from your smartphone, computer, or digital camera and display them as a slideshow in your living room or anywhere else you want to show off your memories to family and friends. They’re also a popular gift for college students, newlyweds, and older relatives.

Your company is swimming — nay, drowning — in consumer data. Thanks to new and emerging digital and data-collecting technologies, each of your divisions, brands, and product units is being inundated with consumer data sources from advertising, promotions, outside agencies, loyalty programs, focus groups — and from physical retail and online selling partner and platforms.
Much of a company’s data inundation is often siloed within divisions, marketing, branding, and product units. These business units either consider the data they generate and collect proprietary or, because there is no overall corporate data policy, lack the wherewithal or methodology to effectively share their data or act on it successfully as a unit or company. Executives not inculcated in consumer data analysis are often frozen by the sheer volume of it or frustrated by conflicting data interpretations and conclusions.
So how can a company leverage the flood of new consumer data generated throughout an organization?

Granted, as far as diversifying your retail product mix, outdoor/patio furniture is not as sexy as, say, mattresses. But a convergence of somewhat otherwise disassociated conditions – the “end” of the pandemic, the coming barbeque season, and a heightened recognition of single-use plastic’s increasingly dangerous environmental impact – makes the outdoor furniture sold by Unwasted a potential new retail basket expander.
Long-story short, Unwasted designs and manufacturers premium, non-traditional, high design “mid-century” modern outdoor furniture with a more indoor aesthetic from recycled lastic. But Unwasted’s wares don’t look or feel like plastic.
