@Delta My 3/31 flight (DL2458) was delayed & canceled due to decisions within Delta’s control. I was promised reimbursement, now denied. I’m out $520+ & chat support has been no help. As a loyal customer, I expect better. Please fix this otherwise I’ll need to escalate to @USDOT

@gregisenberg @elonmusk did something similar with the flamethrower

This is probably the best business idea of the day. The playbook: 1. Build audience (650k YouTube subs). Prioritize platforms that you're a natural at 2. Earn trust over a long period of time. Ask only after you've given so much. 3. Make a product no one asks for that everyone wants. Zag when others zig. 4. Build a killer brand. I use meetdispatch.com for brand/design on retainer for my ideas. 5. Incentivize referrals. Well-known college ambassadors get $10 for each ball sold. I use Lumanu to manage creator payments and UpPromote if I'm using Shopify. 6. Now, you have a pretty perfect flywheel. These are constantly going viral on TikTok. No wonder they sold 15,000 basketballs in 6 months. h/t @ColinandSamir

@Delta your boarding process is a mess. Backpacks shouldn’t be going in the overhead and people shouldn’t have to go 20 rows toward the back of the plane just to put their carry-on away. Also the wifi is horrible and it’s criminal to charge $40…
