🎃 Halloween Week Special: Stop Losing $300K+ in Q4 Cart Abandonment!

Welcome to Week 44 of The Checkout Point! Max and Rachel are back with their caffeinated takes on everything shaking up eCommerce this week—and with Halloween literally around the corner, there's no time to waste on fixing those abandoned carts before the holiday shopping frenzy hits full force.

This episode tackles the massive revenue leak that's costing online retailers a fortune during Q4. We're breaking down Blikket's brand new comprehensive guide on cart abandonment recovery, revealing the exact timing, sequencing, and personalization strategies that turn "maybe later" into "take my money now." Plus, we're exploring how AI is completely transforming the shopping experience (for better or worse), what Target's first major layoffs in a decade mean for retail, and the real story behind that AWS outage that broke half the internet.

🛒 Key Takeaways:

💰 Cart Abandonment Reality Check – How you're hemorrhaging hundreds of thousands during peak season and the proven recovery tactics that actually work

🤖 AI Shopping Assistants Decoded – Amazon and Walmart's new AI tools: genuinely helpful or just really good at upselling?

📈 Shopify's Holiday Dominance – Why their stock is crushing it and what their new report reveals about AI-powered shopping behavior

🎯 Retail Shake-Ups – Target's 1,800 layoffs, eBay's ad algorithm changes, and Amazon's gamified "Seller Challenge"

☁️ The AWS Outage Truth – Everything you read was wrong—here's what really happened and why it matters
