Not good news here.
I'd love to see any evidence that you are more intelligent than the average Apple Store employee.

You said it yourself. Apple needs help and they know it. Desperately.
There is a difference between a revolutionary and evolutionary idea. All those features (horizontal keyboard, web apps, modified notification center) are all evolutionary, and yes 'market research' works for that.
But for example, the iPhone itself was revolutionary, people couldn't see beyond a touchscreen with a stylus. RETINA is revolutionary, no one complained the resolution on their phone was too low
.
And for the record, web apps are the future; Steve's vision was way ahead of its time.
This isn't a customer survey. It's asking employees to provide feedback on how to generate more iPhone sales at Apple stores.
Desperately?![]()
Lost without Steve...
Please for the love of all that is holy allow me to attach a photo to an email that I have already starting writing!
I don't get this, when would retail employees have time to do this since they have to sell current products. Lunch breaks?
Can this crap please stop now? Please explain to us all how getting ideas from people closer to the customer is being "lost"? Steve wasn't a god. There's always those few users here who seem to think that he was never wrong.
Well coming from the sales side, apple pays out less than all of our other devices. We try to drive other products to drive our gross profit. Start by offering the same credits and we will be less opt to try and get customers into different devices that do a lot of the same if not more functionality wise.
Haha I wondered how long it would take for someone to spin it this way. Why would getting input from retail employees be a bad thing?Leaders aren't the only ones who have good ideas in a company.
I remember a guy that used to be CEO saying we don't do market research, focus groups, we just design stuff that we (ourselves) would love to use.
