The simplicity that Jetblack provides with its text message interface could encourage loyalty and boost competitive positioning. An easy, responsive interface style like Jetblack's can go a long way toward helping Walmart compete with other subscription services like Amazon Prime, especially among busy moms, which are Jetblack's primary target demographic.
