Quotes:
(11:07-11:14) “The best marketing automations are the ones that can scale quickly, meaning it doesn’t require a lot of manual maintenance.”
(12:24-12:48) “A good way to think about what consumers are doing on your app or website is the working backwards methodology. In my case, for example, I look at when a user makes a purchase. With data that I get or with analysts I can see what’s the thing they do right before that, what’s the thing they do right before that, and etcetera.”
