“I never go to clinics because comments can be brutal and not enjoyable. I wait for the final global evaluation on feedback - and we do it with social media. We look and analyse the data, where does it come from? Is it loved? Which market did it come from? Social media is analysed as well, but we don't know if there are real customers behind those comments but we know they are real voices so we listen.”
They are contradicting each other, insulting their customers, and making no sense all at the same time...kind of like their new design language. Elitist Karen's they are indeed.
