Bought never used/opened Fitbit on eBay to replace out of warranty Fitbit that was NOT water resistant. Apparently not like really old stock at a retailer and is considered out of warranty after ANOTHER water incident. Done w @fitbit for poor #custserv. Why trust #Pixel watch?

@latimes @msuster Congrats @msuster for the recognition for the hard work you've put in to championing and growing the community for at least 2 decades from my count

Only reason for me to be here is a big thank you to the @Delta Crew that reunited me with the sweater I dropped in LA when we landed

@pt Yes

“Would Lightning McQueen buy car insurance or life insurance?” I’m not sure what it says about me, but my 10yo just blew my mind.

Amazing conversations at @TransUnion's #BraveNewWorlds today, not surprisingly, a lot from @LouPas. His final plea "Stop targeting customers, start cultivating them"

As I keep saying, it’s not about spending! Never has been! It’s 100% about imposing a kind of pain and dominance.

Why am I waking up every day at 3 am? Wrong answers only.

You can't build anything bigger than you are inside - @llcoolj @ #POSSIBLE2023 Super zen and incisive. Grow yourself to grow your world.

The last morning of a conference often doesn't get the attention it deserves. The @ANAmarketers #ANADataMasters delivered with two great talks from @turbotax and @JNJGlobalHealth on measurement and data ethics. Practical, applied, accessible, inspiring (in a getting it done way)

@Delta What a great surprise today. Thanks for the upgrade, whomever applied their magic.

@mvermut Thanks for being the best part of Delta. We appreciate and thank you for recognizing the Delta difference. We will see you again soon.

I really like @Delta #custserv. Always friendly, responsive and considerate. Flying is generally not fun, it's much easier when the people you deal with are doing their best to be helpful

@L_willen @hechingerreport So glad to know you're out there!

@mvermut Yes, but it doesn't have to: @hechingerreport works with news outlets throughout the U.S, both local and national, covering inequality and innovation in education. We turn 14 soon!

This is the local reporting that disappears if papers go away: in-depth investigation into involuntary school transfers that disproportionately impact specifics populations, to avoid the expulsion process that likely wouldn't succeed latimes.com/california/sto…

@arrington Did the article provide the per capita income and tax amounts? Might tell a different story. And maybe the multiple of income between groups. Oh, and does the income include non-taxed sources of income and value growth? (paywall)

On taxing the rich.

and in case you missed this gem from Aaron, (paid) marketing DOES drive repeat purchases from your customers #movablemiddles #eTailWest

Aaron Sanandres of @UNTUCKit on avoiding LT brand erosion from too much price promotion. Won't consider loyalty program unless no discounting (e.g. % off, value for free). 2022 AOR increased for the full price retailer. Retention focus is in-store experience + engagement. #eTail

"Learn to earn" for dynamic pricing as a real-time alternative to experimentation to avoid loss from learning during listening period from @Astrochieh of @BoxedWholesale. Running at scale alternatives to site visitors and responding to market signals #eTailPalmSprings

In a tossaway, Ashley Kick of @shopdoen drops the most critical component of effective marketing: consistent taxonomy. It's the unlock to the #analytics and #insights that enable #measurement and #optimization. And the hardest to achieve across your ecosystem #eTailPalmSprings
