Personalizatio n wasn't supposed to be a cleverly veiled way to chase prospects around the web, showing them the same spammy ad for the same lame stuff as everyone else sees. No, it is a chance to differentiate at a human scale, to use behavior as the most important clue about what people want and more important, what they need.

If the journey you started was worth doing, then quitting when you hit the Dip just wastes the time youโve already invested. Quit in the Dip often enough and youโll find yourself becoming a serial quitter, starting many things but accomplishing little. Simple: If you canโt make it through the Dip, donโt start. If you can embrace that simple rule, youโll be a lot choosier about which journeys you start.
