More than one third of U.S. online shoppers will likely buy products on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, per new survey from RTB House


New consumer survey supports forecast that U.S. holiday sales will top $1 trillion for first time

“With so many media stories and a blitz of promotions that put everyone in a buying mood over a longer time period, extending special deals so they’re a week-long event vs. a one-day sale can really boost revenues,” said Gary Burtka, VP of U.S. operations at RTB House.

RTB House, a global company that provides state-of-the-art marketing solutions for top brands worldwide, today announced the results of a fresh consumer survey that support a prediction by eMarketer, who predicted that U.S. holiday sales this season will climb to an all-time high of more than $1 trillion.

The RTB House survey found that 38 percent of American consumers are likely to purchase a product online during Black Friday and/or Cyber Monday. Of that group, 62 percent say they’re most likely to shop on Amazon during Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

The results are based off a consumer survey conducted via Google Surveys the week of Nov. 4th, 2019 of 1,000 U.S. consumers.

Other survey findings include:


  • Everyone is mobile, and brands must reach consumers wherever they are, whenever they are there. Of those likely to buy products online during the two-biggest holiday promotion days, customers are evenly split between purchasing on a smartphone (33%) or laptop (32%+), followed by desktop (20%+) and tablet (14%+).

  • Amazon is the clear winner for expected online purchases this year. More than 62 percent of consumers plan to shop on Amazon during Black Friday/Cyber Monday.

  • More than a quarter of shoppers say they’ll be searching for deals and will be ready to buy during Black Friday/Cyber Monday. Nearly 27 percent of consumers are likely to click on an offer via a digital ad and buy the product.

  • Black Friday and Cyber Monday are no longer confined to just a few days, but instead they’re spreading out research and purchases over a longer period. More than 28 percent of consumers start to research products in early November to buy them during Black Friday/Cyber Monday, more than 25 percent the week of Thanksgiving, eight percent the day before and more than 30 percent are online shopping the day of the two biggest holiday promotion days.

“With so many media stories and a blitz of promotions that put everyone in a buying mood over a longer time period, extending special deals so they’re a week-long event vs. a one-day sale can really boost revenues,” said Gary Burtka, VP of U.S. operations at RTB House. “Brands need to play to deal-minded consumers and consider offering them real-time discounts to spur impulse purchases, and they definitely need to go mobile to capture Millennials, who are big holiday spenders. Gen Y has trended up to purchases of more than $400 each since 2017.”

Overall, holiday sales represent about 20 percent of annual retail sales in the U.S., but that figure can be higher for some retailers, per the National Retail Federation. Hobby, toy and game stores report the highest share at about 30 percent.

According to RTB House’s own global data based on thousands of client campaigns, brands see about a 30 percent boost in new customers during Black Friday/Cyber Monday, and sales volumes during the holiday season increase by about 78 percent. Conversion rates from online ad banners also increase by about 3.5X during November because shoppers are ready to buy.

Bodkin Design Introduces Corning Slit-Scan Hyperspectral Imaging to their line of Snapshot Hyperspectral Imagers


Bodkin Design & Engineering now offers Corning imagers!

Bodkin Design & Engineering now offers Corning imagers!

Bodkin Design is at the forefront of hyperspectral imaging technology and a recognized industry leader for spectral imaging needs.

Bodkin Design & Engineering is proud to become a distributor of Corning hyperspectral imagers. The Corning microHSI™ 410 hyperspectral sensor offers the highest sensitivity of all HSIs in the industry. The patented mono-block design immerses the entire optical path in a high index material, allowing much greater through-put than free-space optical systems. The unparalleled sensitivity is a result of this immersed system, increasing sensitivity by the square of the index of refraction. And the solid block is immune to shock and vibration, making it ideal for airborne mapping and continuous web based process control.

Not only does the Corning microHSI™ 410 offer the highest performance, but costs considerably less than competitive devices.

The Corning microHSI™ 410 is available as a standalone sensor, with a scanning platen for laboratory use and as a turn-key package for airborne reconnaissance with software and built-in GPS/INS.

Snapshot HSI is ideal for capturing high speed events or producing video rate data-cubes; by contrast, Slit-Scan HSI produces high resolution maps through airborne platform motion or a scanning mirror or moving conveyer belt.

Visit Bodkin Design.com for more details on these exciting technologies or contact us for help in choosing the perfect sensor for your application.

Molecular Therapy Family of Journals Welcomes Roland W. Herzog and Gerhard Bauer as Editors-in-Chief


News Image

“It is important to understand that the Molecular Therapy family of journals offers unprecedented opportunities to publish high-quality articles in gene and cell therapy,” Herzog says.

The American Society of Gene & Cell Therapy (ASGCT) announced today the appointment of Roland W. Herzog, Ph.D. and Gerhard Bauer as editors-in-chief of the Society’s field-leading journals, Molecular Therapy and Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development, respectively. Both editors will begin their positions effective January 1, 2020.

Herzog, currently the editor-in-chief of Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development, will assume the same role for a five-year term at Molecular Therapy from Seppo Ylä-Herttuala, M.D., Ph.D. at the conclusion of Ylä-Herttuala’s term. Herzog is also a professor of pediatrics, Riley Children’s Foundation Professor of Immunology, and director of the gene and cell therapy program at Indiana University.

“It is important to understand that the Molecular Therapy family of journals offers unprecedented opportunities to publish high-quality articles in gene and cell therapy,” Herzog says. “My vision has continued and even further strengthened close coordination and collaboration between the journal editors and partnership with Cell Press and ASGCT.”

Bauer replaces Herzog at the helm of Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development after serving as an associate editor of the same journal for more than four years. Bauer is an assistant professor of hematology and oncology and director of the Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) laboratory at the UC Davis Institute for Regenerative Cures.

“Over the years that I have been looking at manuscripts submitted to the journal, I have always loved the articles dealing with translational research, getting the products ready for clinical applications, improving their utility and solving problems in the manufacturing of these products,” Bauer says. “Now, at a time where we have clinical efficacy and also commercially approved cell and gene therapy products that save lives, it is even more important to strengthen the translational research field.”

ASGCT’s official journal, Molecular Therapy is the leading journal for research in the areas of gene transfer, vector development and design, stem cell manipulation, development of gene-, peptide-, protein-, oligonucleotide-, and cell-based therapeutics to correct genetic and acquired diseases, vaccine development, pre-clinical target validation, safety/efficacy studies, and clinical trials. Molecular Therapy is dedicated to promoting the sciences in genetics, medicine, and biotechnology. Publishing important peer-reviewed research and cutting-edge reviews and commentaries, the journal continues to attract the best material in the field. Molecular Therapy’s 2018 impact factor is 8.402.

The aim of Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development is to build upon the success of Molecular Therapy in publishing important peer-reviewed methods and procedures, as well as translational advances in the broad array of fields under the molecular therapy umbrella. Molecular Therapy—Methods & Clinical Development’s 2018 impact factor is 4.875.

In addition to Molecular Therapy and Molecular Therapy Methods & Clinical Development, ASGCT also owns and operates two other sibling journals, Molecular Therapy—Nucleic Acids (2018 impact factor 5.919) and Molecular Therapy—Oncolytics (2018 impact factor 5.710).

Josh Willey Stanford

“I am so proud of Josh for completing Stanford University’s Executive COO Program. Josh’s ability to complete this program while balancing his responsibilities at Green Lawn & Green Pest and his family speaks to his great leadership abilities” says President/Owner Matt Jesson.

Joshua Willey, Sr. VP of Operations at Green Lawn Fertilizing / Green Pest Solutions completed a 3 month COO program from Stanford Business School.

To complete the executive education program at Stanford University, Josh had to go through twelve intense weeks of learning. This program included time on Stanford Business School campus and in-home learning including reading over 47 individual business case studies. The Stanford curriculum’s goal is to train executives in the latest thinking on business excellence and modern leadership; then turn new insights into action.

“I am so proud of Josh for completing Stanford University’s Executive COO Program. I believe strongly in continuing the education of my management team and sending executive leaders like Josh Willey to the very best business schools in the country. Josh’s ability to complete this program while balancing his responsibilities at Green Lawn & Green Pest and his family speaks to his great leadership abilities” says President/Owner Matt Jesson.

Willey has been with Green Lawn Fertilizing / Green Pest Solutions since June of 2017. During his tenure he has helped take the company from just over $11.5M to over $19M in annual revenue. As Sr. VP of Operations, Josh oversees our customer service and production departments along with our Lawn & Pest outside sales program. Josh came into the business with 16 years leadership experience in the green industry including operations, sales, customer service, HR, finance, and technical services in the Northeast and Midwest. Josh recently moved to Malvern, PA where he lives with his wife Tracey and five sons.

Green Lawn Fertilizing / Green Pest Solutions’ President and Owner Matt Jesson is someone who passionately believes in continuing education. Last year he completed a three year executive leadership program at Harvard Business School. The incredible value that Matt saw in that program for himself was a catalyst for wanting to send Josh to Stanford as well as other company leaders participating in top business school programs. VP of Lawn, John Guth is currently participating in a program at Cornell University and VP of Sales, Alex Wolfington is enrolled for December at Harvard Business School. Additionally several other members from the company leadership team are participating in a six part learning cohorts at the Midatlantic Employers’ Association. Jesson deserves a ton of credit for the people investment the company has made in the education space.

Silony Medical Announces First Robotic Assisted Surgery in the UK


News Image

“Silony’s German-engineered products provide surgeons with the precision and flexibility on a consistent basis, while their local representation provides first class service.” – Dr. Syed Aftab

Silony Medical, a medical technology company producing meticulously thoughtful spine solutions, has announced the company’s first robotic-assisted and navigated surgery in the UK. The procedure was performed in the UK’s largest trauma center, the Royal London Hospital (NHS) by acclaimed spine surgeons, Dr. Syed Aftab and Dr. Alexander Montgomery. The surgery, which took place on July 22, 2019, was undertaken using the Verticale MIS Posterior Spinal Fixation System.

Due to the increasing pressure to reduce costs in the healthcare systems in general, many hospitals are faced with the challenge of creating ever more efficient procedures in the area of surgery. This is why Silony develops its products specifically with cost and time pressures in mind. An extensive assessment by the Institute for Health Economics Munich in November 2016 confirmed that Silony products offer considerable potential for saving costs, time and resources in hospitals. Using the example of a hospital specialized in spinal surgery, a significant cost advantage was calculated for the VERTICALE system when compared with two competitors’ products. These savings involved a number of factors, including the needs-based supply and easy and practical handling of the Silony products which led to considerable cost reductions. Annual savings of over 200 working hours were calculated for processing and cleaning preparation, while maintenance and function testing work was reduced by more than 270 hours over the same period.

Dr. Aftab, a Consultant Spinal Orthopaedic Surgeon at the Royal London (Barts Health NHS Trust), stated, “Silony’s German-engineered products provide surgeons with the precision and flexibility on a consistent basis, while their local representation provides first class service.”

Dr. Montgomery said, “I’m pleased to say that the Verticale MIS system is intuitive and given the complexity of the case, performed exceptionally well. The patient is recovering well and continues to make steady progress.”

With the insight and guidance of more than 30 of world’s leading surgeons behind their products, Silony is able to deliver medical devices that meet the exacting needs of surgeons and their patients.

About Silony Medical

Founded in 2012, Silony Medical drives innovation by optimizing and streamlining instrument system size and multi-functionality. Coupled with superior implant variety, Silony Medical’s clinical driven approach to spine surgery has created a modular portfolio of posterior and interbody systems that are unrivaled in their ease-of-use in complex MIS degenerative fusion cases.
