SUMMARY:

I found a great resource that fills in the blanks on Circuit City’s demise from a person I follow on twitter, @DonEames . He is a former Senior VP of Best Buy, and now has his own management consulting company. Even though he was inside the key rival of Circuit City, I believe he had front row seats to the demise. His analysis would be politically tough for a Circuit City insider to provide, especially given the it was just a year ago that the final stores shuttered.

Check it out – it is called “CIRCUIT CITY SIX: Six Fatal Mistakes of a Once “Good to Great” Company”. It is a quick and to the point read. I found it to provide valuable insight to both retailers and brands alike, and for that matter, consumers who used to shop there (or avoid it).
