Google doesn't understand customer service. They really don't. When speaking to customers, I ask them what is the biggest issue with using a google product.They will most likely say - reaching a human being.

PS: I work for a competitor of one of google's products.

I just got 3 of my groups migrated to Signal. I expect many more to be migrated by the end of the month. While many may still remain lots of people will be off WA by 8th Feb.

Ask HN: Would you like me to write a book on sales?

I was the CTO of an EdTech startup. I joined a leading tech company 5 years ago in a BD/Sales role primarily to learn sales as it always seemed mystic to me. Over the last 5 year I have grown a sub-million business vertical to over $100M/yr. I have learned a lot, failed a lot and succeeded a little. Would you like me to write a book on sales for tech people? Is that something you would pay for?

There is. When you live here it's easy to see it. Tensions have been escalating for last 6 months. Hence many changes in Foreign investments - esp. from China.

for all practical purposes this doesn't exist any more. It's jsut that western media focuses on it a lot.

thanks. this is really helpful.
The toughest thing in Google is getting in touch with a Human there. Its virtually impossible unless you know people working there. And this isn't just about scale. Take cloud services. Getting in touch with GCP customer service is a lot more difficult than other providers.
