Shining Jeff Bezos Quotes

  • “We expect all our businesses to have a positive impact on our top and bottom lines. Profitability is very important to us or we wouldn’t be in this business.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The best customer service is if the customer doesn’t need to call you, doesn’t need to talk to you, it just works.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I like treating things as if they’re small, you know Amazon even though it is a large company, I want it to have the heart and spirit of a small one.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “If there’s one reason we have done better than of our peers in the Internet space over the last six years, it is because we have focused like a laser on customer experience, and that really does matter, I think, in any business. It certainly matters online, where word-of-mouth is so very, very powerful.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Friends congratulate me after a quarterly-earnings announcement and say, ‘Good job, great quarter … And I’ll say, ‘Thank you, but that quarter was baked three years ago. I’m working on a quarter that’ll happen in 2021 right now.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “What we need to do is always lean into the future; when the world changes around you and when it changes against you – what used to be a tail wind is now a head wind – you have to lean into that and figure out what to do because complaining isn’t a strategy.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Amazon is not too big to fail … If we start to focus on ourselves, instead of focusing on our customers, that will be the beginning of the end … We have to try and delay that day for as long as possible.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “The common question that gets asked in business is, ‘why?’ That’s a good question, but an equally valid question is, ‘why not?” — Jeff Bezos
jeff-bezos-quotes
  • “If everything you do needs to work on a three-year time horizon, then you’re competing against a lot of people. But if you’re willing to invest on a seven-year time horizon, you’re now competing against a fraction of those people, because very few companies are willing to do that.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “At Amazon we like things to work in five to seven years. We’re willing to plant seeds, let them grow and we’re very stubborn. We say we’re stubborn on vision and flexible on details.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • In some cases, things are inevitable. The hard part is that you don’t know how long it might take, but you know it will happen if you’re patient enough. E-books had to happen. Infrastructure web services had to happen. So you can do these things with conviction if you are long-term-oriented and patient.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “One of the things we don’t do very well at Amazon is a me-too product offering. So when I look at physical retail stores, it’s very well served, the people who operate physical retail stores are very good at it…the question we would always have before we would embark on such a thing is: What’s the idea? What would we do that would be different? How would it be better? We don’t want to just do things because we can do them…we don’t want to be redundant.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Amazon today remains a small player in global retail. We represent a low single-digit percentage of the retail market, and there are much larger retailers in every country where we operate. And that’s largely because nearly 90% of retail remains offline, in brick and mortar stores.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “It’s hard to remember for you guys, but for me it’s like yesterday I was driving the packages to the post office myself, and hoping one day we could afford a forklift.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Focus on cost improvement makes it possible for us to afford lower prices, which drives growth. Growth spreads fixed costs across more sales, reducing cost per unit, which makes possible more price reductions. Customers like this, and it’s good for shareholders. Please expect us to repeat this loop.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Wandering in business is not efficient … but it’s also not random. It’s guided… and powered by a deep conviction that the prize for customers is big enough that it’s worth being a little messy and tangential to find our way there. Wandering is an essential counterbalance to efficiency. You need to employ both. The outsized discoveries – the “non-linear” ones – are highly likely to require wandering.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The balance of power is shifting toward consumers and away from companies… The right way to respond to this if you are a company is to put the vast majority of your energy, attention and dollars into building a great product or service and put a smaller amount into shouting about it, marketing it.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Part of company culture is path-dependent – it’s the lessons you learn along the way.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The killer app that got the world ready for appliances was the light bulb. So the light bulb is what wired the world. And they weren’t thinking about appliances when they wired the world. They were really thinking about – they weren’t putting electricity into the home. They were putting lighting into the home.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “On the Internet, companies are scale businesses, characterized by high fixed costs and relatively low variable costs. You can be two sizes: You can be big, or you can be small. It’s very hard to be medium. A lot of medium-sized companies had the financing rug pulled out from under them before they could get big.” — Jeff Bezos

Jeff Bezos Quotes That Make You Think

  • “If you don’t understand the details of your business you are going to fail.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I’m skeptical of any mission that has advertisers at its centerpiece.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “In the old world, you devoted 30% of your time to building a great service and 70% of your time to shouting about it. In the new world, that inverts.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “A company shouldn’t get addicted to being shiny, because shiny doesn’t last.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Patience, persistence, and obsessive attention to detail.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The human brain is an incredible pattern-matching machine.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of mouth is very powerful.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “A word about corporate cultures: for better or worse, they are enduring, stable, hard to change. They can be a source of advantage or disadvantage. You can write down your corporate culture, but when you do so, you’re discovering it, uncovering it — not creating it…..The reason cultures are so stable in time is because people self-select.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “… seek to build a community–to make better choices in the people with whom you partner–that’s the only way to have greater long-term impact on the world.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “During our hiring meetings, we ask people to consider three questions before making a decision…Will you admire this person?…Will this person raise the average level of effectiveness of the group they’re entering?….Along what dimension might this person be a superstar?” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “It is difficult for us to imagine that ten years from now, customers will want higher prices, less selection, or slower delivery. Our belief in the durability of these pillars gives us the confidence required to invest in strengthening them.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The keys to success are patience, persistence, and obsessive attention to detail.” — Jeff Bezos
jeff-bezos-quotes
  • “Working backwards from customer needs often demands that we acquire new competencies and exercise new muscles, never mind how uncomfortable and awkward-feeling those first steps might be.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “One advantage — perhaps a somewhat subtle one — of a customer-driven focus is that it aids a certain type of proactivity. When we’re at our best, we don’t wait for external pressures. We are internally driven to improve our services, adding benefits and features, before we have to.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It’s our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If your customer base is aging with you, then eventually you are going to become obsolete or irrelevant. You need to be constantly figuring out who are your new customers and what are you doing to stay forever young.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you’re competitor-focused, you have to wait until there is a competitor doing something. Being customer-focused allows you to be more pioneering.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes

Ultimate Jeff Bezos Quotes

  • “You don’t want to negotiate the price of simple things you buy every day.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The one thing that offends me the most is when I walk by a bank and see ads trying to convince people to take out second mortgages on their home so they can go on vacation. That’s approaching evil.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “If you’re good at course correcting, being wrong may be less costly than you think. Whereas being slow is going to be expensive for sure.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you can make a decision with analysis, you should do so. But it turns out in life that your most important decisions are always made with instinct and intuition, taste, heart.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “As a company grows, everything needs to scale, including the size of your failed experiments. If the size of your failures isn’t growing, you’re not going to be inventing at a size that can actually move the needle. Amazon will be experimenting at the right scale for a company of our size if we occasionally have multibillion-dollar failures.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “It’ so ambitious to take something as highly evolved as the book and improve on it.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “Because, you know, resilience – if you think of it in terms of the Gold Rush, then you’d be pretty depressed right now because the last nugget of gold would be gone. But the good thing is, with innovation, there isn’t a last nugget. Every new thing creates two new questions and two new opportunities.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you’re not stubborn, you’ll give up on experiments too soon. And if you’re not flexible, you’ll pound your head against the wall and you won’t see a different solution to a problem you’re trying to solve.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The thing about inventing is you have to be both stubborn and flexible. The hard part is figuring out when to be which.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a tight box is to invent your way out.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “There are two ways to extend a business. Take inventory of what you’re good at and extend out from your skills. Or determine what your customers need and work backward, even if it requires learning new skills. Kindle is an example of working backward.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you decide that you’re going to do only the things you know are going to work, you’re going to leave a lot of opportunity on the table.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I don’t want to use my creative energy on somebody else’s user interface.” — Jeff Bezos
jeff-bezos-quotes
  • “The framework I found which made the decision incredibly easy was what I called – which only a nerd would call – a ‘regret minimization framework’.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “So I wanted to project myself forward to age 80 and say, ‘Okay, now I’m looking back on my life. I want to have minimized the number of regrets I have.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “You have to be willing to be misunderstood if you’re going to innovate.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “Profitability is very important to us or we wouldn’t be in this business.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It;s our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Your brand is what other people say about you when you’re not in the room.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I don’t think that you can invent on behalf of customers unless you’re willing to think long-term, because a lot of invention doesn’t work. If you’re going to invent, it means you’re going to experiment, and if you’re going to experiment, you’re going to fail, and if you’re going to fail, you have to think long term.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “We want to make money when people use our devices, not when they buy our devices.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “You can do the math 15 different ways, and every time the math tells you that you shouldn’t lower prices because you’re going to make less money. That’s undoubtedly true in the current quarter, in the current year.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “One of the huge mistakes people make is that they try to force an interest on themselves. You don’t choose your passions. Your passions choose you.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “When the world changes around you and when it changes against you, what used to be a tail wind is now a head wind, you have to lean into that and figure out what to do because complaining isn’t a strategy.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “The thing that motivates me is a very common form of motivation. And that is, with other folks counting on me, it’s so easy to be motivated.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “Keep our competitors focused on us, while we stay focused on the customer.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “But it’s probably not true over a 10-year period, when the benefit is going to increase the frequency with which your customers shop with you, the fraction of their purchases they do with you as opposed to other places. Their overall satisfaction is going to go up.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “We have focused like a laser on customer experience, and that really does matter.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “Another thing that I would recommend to people is that they always take a long-term point of view. I think this is something about which there’s a lot of controversy. A lot of people — and I’m just not one of them — believe that you should live for the now.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you never want to be criticized, for goodness sake don’t do anything new.” — Jeff Bezos

Jeff Bezos Quotes You Will Love

  • “I think what you do is think about the great expanse of time ahead of you and try to make sure that you’re planning for that in a way that’s going to leave you ultimately satisfied. This is the way it works for me. There are a lot of paths to satisfaction and you need to find one that works for you.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “You need a culture that high-fives small and innovative ideas and senior executives [that] encourage ideas. In order for innovative ideas to bear fruit, companies need to be willing to “wait for 5-7 years, and most companies don’t take that time horizon.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “I strongly believe that missionaries make better products. They care more. For a missionary, it’s not just about the business. There has to be a business, and the business has to make sense, but that’s not why you do it. You do it because you have something meaningful that motivates you.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “This has the potential to be bigger than anything we’ve ever done.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “There are two kinds of companies – those that work to raise process and those that work to lower them.” — Jeff Bezos
jeff-bezos-quotes
  • “I think one thing I find very motivating — and I think this is probably a very common form of motivation or cause of motivation — is… I love people counting on me, and so, you know, today it’s so easy to be motivated, because we have millions of customers counting on us at Amazon.com. We’ve got thousands of investors counting on us. And we’re a team of thousands of employees all counting on each other. That’s fun.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “I want to see good financial returns, but also to me there’s the extra psychic return of having my creativity and technological vision bear fruit and change the world in a positive way.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes
  • “If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word-of-mouth is very powerful.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “You know if you make a customer unhappy, they won’t tell five friends, they’ll tell 5,000 friends. So we are at a point now where we have all of the things we need to build an important and lasting company, and if we don’t, it will be shame on us.” — Jeff Bezos
  • “If you make customers unhappy in the physical world, they might each tell 6 friends. If you make customers unhappy on the internet, they can each tell 6,000 friends.” — Jeff Bezos Quotes

Quotes About Jeff Bezos by Others

  • “Perhaps it is his goofy laugh and silly grin that made people underestimate him; certainly his playfulness contributed to that perception.
