Episode 232: Is Promo Headed for a Recession? A Chat with Jonathan Isaacson (Gemline) and Jeremy Lott (SanMar)

The economy roars out of the pandemic in a state of uncertainty. And as global inflation rises, talk of a recession looms in many headlines.

The impact of an economic slowdown on the cost of materials, fuel and transportation, jobs, and importing, could potentially affect the promotional products industry which is why, last week, we held a live interview with two of the industry’s leading supplier leaders: Jonathan Isaacson (Chairman & CEO of Gemline) and Jeremy Lott (President & CEO of SanMar). If you didn’t get a chance to listen to that webinar or even if you did, it’s worth listening to or listening again, which is why we decided to publish that conversation here on the skucast. 

Our chat was cautiously optimistic but also very practical, we talked about the impact of inflation, high-interest rates, low unemployment, the potential of a recession, and most importantly, tactical ways we can prepare in a climate of economic uncertainty. 

Join us for an enlightening but encouraging conversation on the state of the economy and its impact on the promotional products industry.
