1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,520
Speaker 1: No Starbucks. So the return it through the roots. I

2
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 1: guess sale has been down quarter after quarter after quarter. Oh,

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:09,559
Speaker 1: and they're blaming that on something specifically, right, isn'ty?

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it's the little message. It was then like

5
00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 2: writing our name. There are names on the cups when

6
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:17,400
Speaker 2: you would order your drink, and I guess like back

7
00:00:17,440 --> 00:00:19,799
Speaker 2: in the day, like even like when Starbucks first started,

8
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:21,760
Speaker 2: it used to just not be your name.

9
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 3: It would be like a message. Yeah, it would be like.

10
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 2: You know, I always believe in something wonderful, or you

11
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,000
Speaker 2: just like something like words of affirmation.

12
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 1: That they say at the end of our cardioclasses sometimes

13
00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:33,839
Speaker 1: before exactly after a soul cycle class or you know,

14
00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 1: something like that.

15
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 2: So they just want their goal is to humanize the

16
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 2: brand and shift the focus.

17
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:41,640
Speaker 3: From mobile orders.

18
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:43,920
Speaker 2: They're saying that Starbucks is turning into too much of

19
00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: a mobile order like restaurant in restaurant, cafe or whatever

20
00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 2: when you go in. And it's true, I I prefer

21
00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:54,600
Speaker 2: mobile ordering when I because it's just quick for me

22
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,280
Speaker 2: my schedule. I'd go in and it's already there on

23
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 2: the counter and I leave. So they're trying to say

24
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: if this will like maybe help or humanize them a

25
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 2: little bit.

26
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 3: It stopped at the beginning of.

27
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 2: The pandemic or during the pandemic, and I think for

28
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 2: obvious reasons, right, it was like less having to like

29
00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: interact with the cup that you're gonna drink. Yeah, and

30
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 2: they just never brought it back after twenty twenty. So

31
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: people are kind of like, I can't they hate this.

32
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 3: I don't hate this.

33
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 1: I mean, look, if you think about star Works at

34
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: the beginning, it was a place where I wanted to

35
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: go hang. You wanted to go in there. You wanted

36
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,800
Speaker 1: the experience of being in there, and you wanted that

37
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: feeling and that smell and the aroma and all the

38
00:01:31,920 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: stuff that comes along with it. And I did like

39
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: the exchange, and I do like the exchange with the barista.

40
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,040
Speaker 1: I probably talked to them too much. So I don't

41
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 1: mind a message on my cup. Matter of fact, look

42
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 1: forward to a message on my cup, especially if it's

43
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:43,760
Speaker 1: original on my mind.

44
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: And some people don't know about this change though, so

45
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 2: consider this a PSA because they're thinking that the barisas

46
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,840
Speaker 2: are flirting with them, because.

47
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,240
Speaker 3: Think about whenever an amazing day and they're flirting.

48
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 2: I don't know it depends on what they say too.

49
00:01:58,200 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: Fat.

50
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: I get.

51
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,400
Speaker 3: From my from my people, and I think it's so cute.

52
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: We would be, but there's people out there that think

53
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 2: it's flirting.

54
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,400
Speaker 1: It'll be interesting to see if this rebounds their sales,

55
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: because I was reading that quarter after quarter it's gone down, down, down,

56
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: and they think it's because they've lost this human touch,

57
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: which I want it to be true because I like

58
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:22,839
Speaker 1: the human touch.

59
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 2: They're changing their rules about like if you're going to

60
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 2: sit in there all day, you have.

61
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 3: To got to buy something, which is fair. That's fair,

62
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 3: which is fair.
