I hypothesize that, then the key thing, this knocks out all the perfectionists in the world, then you put it in the world and you see if it works. Customer experience, you hypothesize the customer experience, you deliver on the customer experience, you analyze the customer experience, and then you re-hypothesize. What's different about this, I think, about the spin I'm going to put it on today, is it's about hypothesizing a customer experience.

High-value, differentiated, and relevant customer experience. That's the hypothesis. I hypothesize that, then the key thing— this knocks out all the perfectionists in the world— Then you put it in the world and you see if it works. And then you get some feedback back and it goes like, ah, 80%, let's tweak it 20%, or 20%, let's tweak it 80%. But that's what the closed-loop marketing is. Make sense for folks?
