Quotes:

(11:03-11:16) “You have to start with one-size-fits-most, one-size-fits-some, one-size-fits-you, and taking that mentality. Because at the end of the day, it’s really important when you’re thinking about lifecycle to make sure you don’t have holes in your lifecycle.”

(16:32-16:47) “So some customers really respond to push, others really respond to email, others will ignore everything you send unless they see it in the product. It doesn’t change the fact that they still need to be communicated with. So what I like to do is, that instead of starting with the channel, start with what it is that you want to communicate.”
