Dell's direct model made the brand promise operational: sell direct, build to order, move inventory fast, and let customer configuration become the point.
Southwest made low-cost flying feel more human by turning bags, fare transparency, boarding rituals, route density, no-frills operations, and friendly service into a promise customers could understand before the fare changed.
