The Dealey Group

Not all prices are created equal anymore. We've been tracking a quiet but fundamental shift in how consumers measure value, and it's changing everything from how people shop to how they search.

Our latest Substack breaks it down, including what it means for retailers and CRE professionals who want to stay ahead of shifting consumer expectations.

So much to celebrate this month! Congratulations to this trio on their workiversaries: Mariah and Kamryn are celebrating 3 years, and Ashley is celebrating 2! We couldn’t do it without your contributions to our team ♥️

Details matter.

From layout to typography, our menu design for Meridian at The Village Dallas was rooted in the restaurant’s defining element: smoke and flame. Hand-etched smoke illustrations and a palette of soft, muted neutrals create a sense of moody depth, while keeping the overall feel crafted, cohesive, and intentional.

The result is a menu that sets the tone for an approachable yet elevated dining experience.

A well-deserved recognition 👏
Congrats to Abby Foley on being named a 2026 32 Under 32 honoree by Ad 2 Dallas. We appreciate her strategic thinking so much, and know she always has our clients' best interests at heart ❤️

Consumer behavior isn’t shifting in one direction. It’s fragmenting, polarizing, and redefining value in real time.

What we’re seeing now are new rules for how people decide what matters, how they spend, and where they show up.

On our Substack, we go deeper, breaking down each trend and what it means for retail, brands, and physical spaces.

Another incredible experience at the JLL Management U Conference in Nashville! We loved reconnecting with so many familiar faces, including our amazing partners at JLL, Imaginuity, Pocketstop, and so many others.

Our girl is getting married! We had a wonderful time celebrating Kamryn and her big day. Cheers to the future Mrs. Hill!
