More quotes by Jeff Bezos
You know, if you make a customer unhappy they won't tell five friends, they'll tell 5,000 friends. So, we are at a point now where we have all of the things we need to build an important and lasting company, and if we don't, it will be shame on us.
Jeff Bezos
Feel free to cover Amazon any way you want. Feel free to cover Jeff Bezos any way you want.
Jeff Bezos
We innovate by starting with the customer and working backwards. That becomes the touchstone for how we invent.
Jeff Bezos
When you are eighty years old, and in a quiet moment of reflection narrating for only yourself the most personal version of your life story, the telling that will be most compact and meaningful will be the series of choices you have made. In the end, we are our choices.
Jeff Bezos
Good ideas will always get funded, so that's not going to be a problem. But you will see that it will be harder and harder for bad ideas to get funded.
Jeff Bezos
I think there are going to be a bunch of tablet-like devices. It's really a different product category.
Jeff Bezos
Because, you know, resilience - if you think of it in terms of the Gold Rush, then you'd be pretty depressed right now because the last nugget of gold would be gone. But the good thing is, with innovation, there isn't a last nugget. Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.
Jeff Bezos
We watch our competitors, learn from them, see the things that they were doing for customers and copy those things as much as we can.
Jeff Bezos
People who are right most of the time are people who change their minds often
Jeff Bezos
I love my life. I love being an inventor.
Jeff Bezos
The Net is pretty cool, but the physical world is the best medium ever.
Jeff Bezos
But there's so much kludge, so much terrible stuff, we are at the 1908 Hurley washing machine stage with the Internet. That's where we are. We don't get our hair caught in it, but that's the level of primitiveness of where we are. We're in 1908.
Jeff Bezos
I'm not saying that advertising is going away. But the balance is shifting. If today the successful recipe is to put 70 percent of your energy into shouting about your service and 30 percent into making it great, over the next 20 years I think that's going to invert.
Jeff Bezos
Do something you're very passionate about, and don't try to chase what is kind of the hot passion of the day.
Jeff Bezos
If you build a great product or service, people will talk about it. But it starts with having something that's worth talking about.
Jeff Bezos
We like to pioneer, we like to explore, we like to go down dark alleys and see what's on the other side.
Jeff Bezos
Percentage margins are not one of the things we are seeking to optimize. It’s the absolute dollar free cash flow per share that you want to maximize, and if you can do that by lowering margins, we would do that. So if you could take the free cash flow, that’s something that investors can spend. Investors can’t spend percentage margins.
Jeff Bezos
The book is not really the container for the book. The book itself is the narrative. It's the thing that people create.
Jeff Bezos
I don't think that you can invent on behalf of customers unless you're willing to think long-term, because a lot of invention doesn't work. If you're going to invent, it means you're going to experiment, and if you're going to experiment, you're going to fail, and if you're going to fail, you have to think long term.
