“The face of marketing and customer service may have
changed dramatically during the past decade, but some
things remain consistent—such as the heart of the consumer.
Real people are still the end users, not programs or bots…
That’s why effective marketing requires the human touch.
We are wired to crave relationships: real connections with
fellow human beings. But so far, there isn’t an intelligent,
automated tool that’s been invented to provide all the flexibility,
sincerity, warmth and genuine care consumers relate to.”
