Performance
With the brand new iPhone line-up and the crazy pricing repositioning, the tech-giant Apple excels once again at extending the life of its product portfolio. They have managed to do so with impressive technical specs, incremental innovation, smart marketing and boosting the performance of its gadgets. I really think other companies and brands should learn from Apple’s incredible marketing strategies. Even their website is incredibly detailed and catchy.
Since I’m looking for an ISP these days, I have yet to see an informative and comprehensive website by an ISP. Apple is an inspiration in that regard. So far, I have found Visioneclick website quite informative. And after a call to Cox Customer Service for the subscription to their best package, I’m all set to experience the brand new iPhone. I have pre-booked my iPhone XR (the budget-friendly one) and I can’t wait to get my hands on it!
