One’s a numbers buyer. It’s how cheap can I get a burger because it’s a survival tool and I’m going to feed the energy level. And then you have the other ones that need the personal care, the personal service.” - Jim Robinson, (2:54)“Scrutinize the tech, but don’t spend too much time on this. Scrutinize but excel your decision making because you’re going to be a dinosaur and antiquated as soon as you start because it’s moving at breakneck speed. And the key in tech today is how do we speed up everything…but there’s so much technology out there and the key is to decide what has to be sped up, what do you need faster, and then use technology to do that.” - Jim Robinson, (10:55)“[Customer service] has to be personable. So delivery of content, that’s great. Use automation, accelerate the delivery of content, but it isn’t going to change the way you see a brand. It’s with the people that you see the brand.” - Jim Robinson, (17:31)“Your people that are delivering the customer service are conveying your [company] values. So whatever that company value is, it’s when they get off of the value that you’re delivering that the brand gets skewed.” - Jim Robinson, (19:43)“Collect the data that’s pertinent so that you can serve them better. Meet needs and wants. Needs are simple, but wants are more complex because those are very individualistic…[needs] set a standard and then how do they want you to deliver that need. So meet needs and wants better than anyone else and you’ll have a client forever.” - Jim Robinson, (30:00)
