"I think as an industry, we're getting smarter as a collective, you know, marketers and analysts are getting smarter, but maybe budgets haven't improved as much to have a data science team or a data engineer, for example, to manage all these pipelines." - Dan
"But there's something deep down inside me that believes that they're probably going after the Amazon market share." - Bhav
"I was always told that there's no such thing as a funnel, it's a pretzel, users don't act in straight lines. But the funnels are still really useful" - Dan
"Sankey diagrams are horrible because they look horrible, they're not very actionable" - Bhav
