Everything we see, everything we feel, everything we do is based on supply and demand. Period. We're living in a 24-7, 365 world. We're just too busy and our time is way too limited.
While we're getting smarter about our targeting efforts based on this smart data that we're collecting, sometimes we get way too focused on the hunting rather than the farming. Some times, we need to pay more attention to retention, as opposed to acquisition. In this fast paced, on-the-go world that we're living in, we tend to forget about the importance of taking care of those around us. We tend to forget about the importance of EQ rather than all these smart tactics that we're employing around the numbers we gather. At the end of the day, human-to-human engagement still matters. Although our world may seem to be getting bigger and bigger because we're so much more connected, if you take a step back and look around, you'll see that we're actually as intimate as we've ever been. You just need to start looking at the right things.
