- keiferski 7y agoMaybe from a marketing perspective, sure. But from a truthfulness perspective, I think you’ll find that most people are annoyed by the fake opinions that come from most businesses. Indeed a number of companies have been successful specifically because they talk like real human beings and readily admit the strengths and weaknesses of their products.

- macintux 7y agoDominos used the lousy quality of their pizzas to market a revamped recipe.
- giarc 7y agoThat's not quite an apples to apples comparison. CEO of the jewelry store was saying that his current products were crap. I'm assuming Dominos was saying "our old recipe was crap, new receipe is good."
- Aperocky 7y agoWhy not, if it is crap, call it so. The only problem is him being in the jewelry business. People buy jewelry for vanity, of course they didn't like that. Sundar Pichai can call youtube $INSERT_SUB_SERVICE crap and discontinue that, you'll still watch youtube. If he's joking, he can call the entire company crap and nobody would stop using Google or Youtube.
