From the Editor

Welcome to the summer edition of Alert. In this issue, we’ve got some great advice from our friends at Quick Brown Fox PR on how you can make the most of the weather hotting up and add some sizzle to your sales by looking at holding outdoor events and offering summer promotions. Outdoor entertainment – English weather permitting – is definitely something to look at over the next few months and it came up in discussion when I was talking to Sony UK marketing director, Jonathan Wild, for this issue’s Editor’s Interview. We also chatted about the current state of the CE market, innovative new tech and the hot topic of selling direct-to-consumer.
