An offer so good (dangerous, yes) that took a shitty pizza place to a current 16B-ish valuation is a failure?

This is actually a good example of a mediocre product growing due to an incredible offer. Something that most business don’t event bother to consider. Your offer is definitely more important than even features in most cases.

In fairness to Domino's, they did also increase the quality of the pizza. It is at least no longer terrible.

I read about that back then, thought "oh I should give Domino's another try", and it was still terrible. If it was even worse before, I can't imagine how that is possible.
I actually like it a lot
