They have a decision process they're going through and you are not meeting their needs." (8:23) - Howard Tiersky   "Whether it's a website or an app or any kind of touch point with the customer, I think the first thing you want to ask is 'What's our definition of success?'"  (12:33) - Howard Tiersky   "The three things that make brands that are really loved is one, meeting customer's needs, two, occasionally doing something extra that delights the customer, and the third is to stand for something that the customer really cares about."
