[QUOTE=RemoveB4flght;3001215]Email has been around since the 90’s but we still have meetings. Skype at least 15 years and we still send people to close a deal. Online retail is a part of everyday life, but the dot com fiasco showed that the world wasn’t ready to move all business entirely online. Sure I can get groceries delivered, but I want to choose my cut of meat and select my produce. I can finance and purchase a car online, but I still want to sit behind the wheel. The reason have size 34-36 pants and M-XL shirts in my closet is not due to holiday weight gain, but the fact that not all clothes were made to suit me. Anything a salesman can tell you can be read on a website, you can ask a candidate any questions over the phone that you can in person, but we still do live interviews. And is there a single person on the planet who doesn’t know what Coke is? Still they spend untold billions on advertising.

The answer is human psychology. Businesses race to streamline and cut costs, but that freight train slams into the side of a mountain when the average person isn’t ready to adapt to what is most efficient or cost effective. Business is still done in person, and I don’t see that changing fundamentally from this virus driven economic slowdown.[/QUOTE=

I couldn’t of said it better myself!
