The Million Dollar Greeting - Today’s Best Practices for Profit Customer Retention and a Happy Workplace

Daniel Sachs

Summary

Interviews and case studies with nine top business leaders reveal how extraordinary customer service brings high profit, brand loyalty, and a vibrant workplace, and show how you can implement their techniques in your own business. For more than twenty years, Dan Sachs has helped established and emerging businesses use hospitality practices to strengthen employee morale, customer retention, and profits. In The Million Dollar Greeting, readers accompany Sachs as he travels across the United States and Canada, interviewing leaders from both large and small companies, including:  Ari Weinzweig (Zingerman’s Delicatessen) Rob Siefker (Zappos) Mike McDerment (FreshBooks) Steve Hindy (Brooklyn Brewery) Richard Coraine (Union Square Hospitality Group) Mark Hoplamazian (Hyatt Hotels) Paul Speigelman (BerylHealth) Jerrod Melman (Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises) Nick Sarillo (Nick’s Pizza & Pub)   
Each of the companies featured is consistently profitable with its success directly tied to its exceptional customer satisfaction and employees who rank their organization in the top places to work in North America. The original words of the business owners, including their practices, are shared and analyzed by Sachs. Instructional takeaways are written for the business world as it exists today and with consideration for expected changes over the coming years. Topics covered include answering the question of what modern-day hospitality is and why it matters in the digital age; what interpersonal practices, such as the use of empathy, lead to brand loyalty, high financial rewards, and the retention of top employees; how to create a dynamic work culture and the best ways to support employees of different age groups, from baby boomers to millennials; and what practices will grow increasingly critical for businesses to implement over the coming years.

Corey Bowen

Join the Revolution with this Bundle!Learn Everything You Need to Know About Blockchain and Cryptocurrency! In the past few years, the world has seen the tendency towards favoring decentralized systems, rather than depending on a central authority. The infrastructure that is allowing this revolution to take place is called Blockchain. What is it? In the words of Don and Alex Tapscott, two of the biggest experts in the cryptocurrency sphere, “The blockchain is an incorruptible digital ledger of economic transactions that can be programmed to record not just financial transactions, but virtually anything of value.” On the blockchain, different cryptocurrencies have been developed. Today, there are more than 1300 cryptos on the market, each one with its own features. The market of cryptocurrencies has now reached over 350 billion dollars in evaluation. It is a remarkable achievement since now this industry is bigger than McDonald's and Pepsi. If this phenomenon could be left outside the media a few years ago, now it is impossible to deny that there is a true revolution in the act.  With his flawless style and his profound knowledge, Corey managed to put together a simple yet efficient approach to introduce people to the world of blockchain and cryptos.

Lead with Love - 10 Principles...

Gerry Czarnecki

“Any manager aspiring to superior leadership would be wise to study Gerry’s advice” (H. Wayne Huizenga).  Lead with Love is like no other leadership book you have read. Arguing that all leaders must begin with love as their first principle, the author integrates this carefully defined concept into each of his remaining nine key leadership principles—ultimately revealing how passion, and an emotional connection with the organization’s mission, vision and values, will drive success.   These ten principles apply to CEOs who lead companies; executive directors who lead nonprofits; chairmen who lead their peers on corporate boards; coaches who lead athletic teams; teachers who lead classes; mothers who lead households; pastors who lead congregations; foremen who get the plant output manufactured every day. If others look to you for leadership, guidance, or inspiration to achieve goals, there’s much to learn in this book that has been praised by tough-minded entrepreneurs and spiritually empowering thought leaders alike.
