It’s always been critical that we recognize what we can and cannot control

SUCCEEDING VIA AN EVOLVED STRATEGY

But what we can control is the strategy we operate the business by:

- The biggest shift in our corporate strategy took place in 2011

- It will play out in 2012 and beyond...

- The economy

- China partners

- Licensors

We’re asking that these products count for more by:- Selling them more smartly- Making an investment in some inventory- Only making the products we believe make market sense

We’re aiming to make fewer products...

The Marco Mattiacci story: “We always make less cars than the market demands”“Volume is vanity...profit is sanity”

Technology- Creating processing efficiencies

- FlexPay- Newly received items- FlexPay calendar

Product Sales- The positive effects of NRDs- The ‘scrubbing’ of our website inventory

Operations | Brant- Team building with Kyle & Aimee

The Environment- Personal office changes- Conference room changes- Pending lobby renovation

Marketing- Marissa’s support with Social Media- Target emails- The evolution of our logo...and global brand
