Cold Call

Description

Research says that 85% of people will make a purchase after reading online reviews about a product or service.

Harvard Business School professor Thales Teixeira discusses TripAdvisor’s staggering success, how the company has forced an entire industry to change the way it considers (and purposefully influences) the online review process, and how consumers navigate that sea of reviews.
