Ask yourself: "What problem does this solve?"

That's the mantra in Seattle, where our corporate overlords have a Venn Diagram, pie chart, flow chart, and process outline for pretty much everything you do. Which at first was kind of a bummer, because they'd be all, "Why exactly do you want to hire a bunch of people to go streaking around the Space Needle?" and we'd be all, "'Cause it's hilarious," and they'd bring out their giant rubber "NO" stamp and mash it on our foreheads again.

But we're getting our act together! Slowly but surely. And we're even using some of the stuff they insist we use! Like with these refurbished Motorola Bluetooth Headphones! See, before someone might ask, "why are you selling these," and we'd say something like, "because this Motorola truck broke down outside our house and while the driver was walking to 7-Eleven we scored a bunch of headphones" or "I don't know. Just buy one, stupid." But NOW we're going to use their own methodology against you:

What problem does this product solve?
Customers are tired of being tied down and wrapped up in their headphone cables.

How does it solve the problem?
It eliminates wires entirely and uses Bluetooth to receive music.

How can we measure the success of this solution?
I don't know just buy one already, jeez stop being so annoying.

Okay, we tried. But hey! That's progress!
