Customers want to be in a relationship
What do you* offer him?
* = your company
Pain & InflexibilityIt is our way or the highway
We* embrace a solutionWhich adds more complexity to this relationship
* = your company
Instead of solving the true problem!Servicing your customers need
Your values solve your customer needInstead of your solution
Stop wining!Digital is not disrupting your business, you’re just not transforming!
Be inspired!But only watchting Messi won’t make you a great football player
Stop admiring and start doing!Hitting the ball will help making you a good football player!
Stop staring at technology

So how about virtualreality?
Don’t we need amobile app?
Shouldn’t we
invest in drones?
Stop looking for ideas
If your* idea fails!?You* were not solving a large enough customer problem
* = your company
