We must think beyond the individual query and
help users accomplish their goals over time,
across space, and with the people they trust.
Companies who help users throughout the entire
learning process are more likely to:
✴ Create passionate, devoted users
✴ Bene!t from the resulting transaction
The end goal is to provide value to our users,
which in turn brings value to the business.
