Learn more Market Leader Winter 2007, Issue 39 www.warc.com Somewhere West of Laramie Jeremy Bullmore I've never forgotten the trailer for Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. If you've never seen it, go to www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzAnE4zuYuA. Why don't they make trailers like that any more? All modern trailers seem to come out of a computerised trailer-maker that's been programmed not by a human being but by the last 1000 trailers to emerge from that very same trailer-maker. They use sound to indicate not the distinctive characteristic of any film but to bludgeon the senses as if in a disco. They use special effects indiscriminately. The pace of the editing is frenetic, irrespective of the pace of the film itself. Lines of dialogue are selected not to hint at the storyline – the film's premise, its narrative hook – but for their ability to shock. Sometimes the nature of that shock is totally out of sympathy with the mood of the movie. These trailers could be for any one of 50 quite different feature films. The Psycho trailer could be for no film other than Psycho. Hitchcock himself takes us on a guided tour of the scene of the crimes. At one point he opens a cupboard, the door swinging towards the camera so that we can't see inside. He looks in: then closes it again with just a flick of an expression in our direction.

  • Scalable Bundling Via Dense Product Embeddings
    Scalable bundling via dense product embeddings Madhav Kumar,* Dean Eckles, Sinan Aral Massachusetts Institute of Technology September 26, 2021 Abstract Bundling, the practice of jointly selling two or more products at a discount, is a widely used strategy in industry and a well-examined concept in academia. Scholars have largely focused on theoretical studies in the context of monopolistic firms and assumed product relationships (e.g., complementarity in usage). There is, however, little empirical guidance on how to actually create bundles, especially at the scale of thousands of products. We use a machine-learning-driven ap- proach for designing bundles in a large-scale, cross-category retail setting. We leverage historical purchases and consideration sets determined from clickstream data to generate dense represen- tations (embeddings) of products. We put minimal structure on these embeddings and develop heuristics for complementarity and substitutability among products. Subsequently, we use the heuristics to create multiple bundles for each of 4,500 focal products and test their performance using a field experiment with a large retailer. We use the experimental data to optimize the bun- dle design policy with offline policy learning. Our optimized policy is robust across product categories, generalizes well to the retailer’s entire assortment, and provides expected improve- ment of 35% (∼$5 per 100 visits) in revenue from bundles over a baseline policy using product co-purchase rates. *Corresponding author: [email protected] 1 1 Introduction Bundling is a widespread product and promotion strategy used in a variety of industries such as fast food (meal + drinks), telecommunications (voice + data plan), cable (TV + broadband), and insurance (car + home insurance).

  • Shaving Made Easy; What the Man Who Shaves Ought to Know
    SHAVING MADE EASY What the Man Who Shaves Ought to Know ILLUSTRATED PUBLISHED BY THE 20th CENTURY CORRESPONDENCE SCHOOL NEW YORK THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO THOSE MEN WHO HAVE DIFFICULTIES IN SHAVING, IN HOPE THAT ITS CONTENTS WII.L BE OF ASSISTANCE IN REMEDY- ING THEIR TROUBLES. PREFACE. THE object of this little book is to furnish clear and full information about the art of shaving. There are few men who do not experience more or less dif- ficulty in shaving themselves, and many who, after a few unsuccessful attempts, give it up in dispair and go to the barber shop. We believe most of these would much prefer to shave themselves if only they could do as well as a barber. The advantages, indeed, seem to be wholly with the man who shaves him- self. In the first place the shaving is done in the privacy if his own room. He has his own razor, cup, soap, brush and towels, which can be kept scrupulously clean and sanitarv. thus avoidinsf the PREFACE. constant danger of infection. There is no long wait for the call of "next.'' After the first cost of the outfit there is noth- ing- to pay, either for services or "tips." Thus in point of time, money and health,, the man who shaves himself is a decided gainer. There are few things in life that are really difficult to perform when one thor- oughly knows how to do them. Shaving is no exception. The art of shaving can be easily acquired if one only has the will, and the necessary practical infor- mation.
