How Apple Learned to Beat the Retail System From the Best

Too Long; Didn't Read

In the United States, electronics and appliance stores have lost nearly 5% of their sales in the last five years, with other retailers gained 15%. At the same time, technology retailers have lost employees and had more private stores close over the past ten years than retailers as a whole. In the midst of falling sales, Apple Stores sell nearly $36 million each year, from only 270 stores. That’s 5 times the sales with one-fifth the stores when compared to Best Buy.
