Re: [iPad] iOS 10 & more

 

I have a friend who was using an original iPad. She said she didn't need a new one. The one she had worked for her and did everything she wanted it to do. February of this year she went to the Apple Store to "look" at the iPad 2. After seeing it and playing with it, she bought it. She's now saying she loves how much faster it is and loves the features on it she couldn't get on her original. So, it's exactly right to say you don't know you need something until you see it and/or use it.

No, it is far more than that.
Henry Ford is claimed to have said, "If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses."
Meaning that until they had SEEN "automobiles" they couldn't know they would want one (or 2 or 3, …).

All the "persuading" here is simply showing possible customers the thing you're selling.

A beautiful example of a market not knowing what it wants until it actually sees it (you being the exception).

> We know what we want. We are individuals.

Yes, we are.
Each of us is unique.
Just like everyone else.
