This Week in Business History LIVE with Scott and Kelly
Description
When did the word “robot” enter the English language? When did the famous Sears catalog finally bid us all adieu?
This Week in Business History just made a little bit of history of its own… this week! Scott Luton and Kelly Barner went LIVE to take a journey down memory lane, shining a light on some of the most significant leaders, companies, innovations – and even lessons learned – from the week of June 20-24.
They shared stories about:
• The iconic Jimmy Dean, musician, businessman, and - some might say – philosopher
• The birth of Pizza Hut, which spawned a challenge to list as many famous ‘huts’ as possible
• The backstory on Wheaties cereal and their innovating marketing techniques, including the iconic athlete features on their box and the first-ever jingle featured in a radio commercial
