The Power of Word of Mouth

by Kabir Kasargod
A few years ago on a business trip, I had a chance to meet with my good friend Monique to catch up. After sharing our updates over dinner, Monique excitedly asked me, “Have you heard of Redbox? It’s like Blockbuster Video, but it’s a vending machine, and you can rent new movies for just a dollar a day. How cool is that!“
