The best customer service is no customer service
—because the best experience happens when the
customer never has to ask for help at all.
Jeff Bezos, Founder & CEO, Amazon.com paraphrased by John Rossman in The Amazon Way

There’s so much new that’s going to happen.
People don’t have any idea how impactful the Internet is going to
