Greg Buzek, Founder and President of IHL Group and one of the Founders of the Retail Orphan Initiative (www.retailROI.org) joins me to discuss the job of an analyst and how are the best ways for Founders to better engage with analysts at any conference.

Greg was noted by RIS News as one of the Top 10 Influentials in Retail and the National Retail Federation as one of "The List of People Shaping Retail's Future", he has a Masters Degree in Business Administration (MBA) from The Ohio State University, and 25 years of experience in retail market analysis, business planning, product development, and consulting with Fortune 500 companies. Together we have well over 40 years of analyst experience.

Here's a link to Retail Orphan initiative Super Saturday at #NRF. I agree with Greg that’s it’s the best event at NRF and an excellent opportunity for Founders to easily increase their engagement with influencers while helps needy kids around the world.
