summary
Concrete cases and numbers drive decisions: m‑Pesa launches in 2007 and fits a market with 70%+ unbanked, payment-method choices and local carriers change adoption, and simple UI details — name order, date formats, chopsticks-in-a-bowl imagery — break trust. Product changes that work are specific: Pixar makes ~20 shot changes across markets, and commercial fixes include mini daily/weekly Spotify plans and a subscription pause feature that materially lift adoption and retention.
