“So first I tracked the source of this story,” Ronaghan said. “Pretty much all of it is coming from search engines.”
Next, Ronaghan figured out the search queries people were using to find the story, things like “cashless bible society” and “what does the Bible say about a cashless society?” He also found that these topics were trending on Google in early July.
“People are searching this like crazy, but again, I’m really not sure why,” Ronaghan said. “So I started looking at the related searches, and that’s where I start to see something pretty interesting.”

Meet The Black Woman Behind This New Online Vintage Marketplace
Kim-Parker’s goal with the innovative marketplace was to show how much diversity there was in vintage shopping despite the limited scope shown by mainstream boutiques and brands. “One of the perceptions I want to change is that this market is niche. Half of US consumers shop secondhand, and 75% of traditional retailers are already or have plans to offer secondhand in-store or online,” explained Kim-Parker.
“This is also an incredibly diverse industry—there are so many amazing Black, brown, and queer stores and sellers on our platform from across the US, as well as stores and sellers who specialize in plus-size vintage. I am very focused on making sure that that beautiful diversity is front and center so that we can change the narrative about vintage fashion as well as making sure that every shopper feels welcome in our community.”

How the pandemic is accelerating e-commerce's shift to the marketplace model – Glossy
The coronavirus pandemic has accelerated a number of trends that were emerging before it began. That includes the increasing shift in e-commerce from a wholesale model, where the seller buys inventory from brands and sells it online, to a marketplace model, where third-party sellers sell directly through the platform.
