Is Customer Loyalty for You?

Customer Loyalty



Close your eyes, play some relaxing music and imagine your employees were like this.
My name is Passion. I used to work for the sake of work – a paycheck, something to do. But these days, work has become an extension of who I am. It's my way of changing the world, to make it the kind of place we want to live in. Its my purpose, it's what I believe in, my passion.
My teammates and I are 100% driven to delight our customers. I get a great deal of pleasure and a sense of accomplishment from moving my department and my company forward.
My company knows I will do the right thing. I feel like a partner.
I have a spirit to serve.
I care about my team, company and customer.
I take the initiative.
I anticipate my customers needs.
I enjoy people.
Learning is important to me.
I'm human and need to feel appreciated. It doesn't take allot. Ask me and I'll tell you.
Say thank you, remember my birthday, make me laugh, feed me occasionally, celebrate success, help me grow, listen to me and most of all trust me.
You can open your eyes now. What do you think of Passion?
Actually, Passion is a reality for companies like the Ritz Carlton, Apple Retail Stores and HubSpot.
They understand employee investments yield an ROI measured by a cult-like customer loyalty and premium pricing that defies logic.
Is a culture change to the Customer Loyalty business model possible or feasible for an existing company?

Trust and Assisted Living

Trust and Assisted Living trust : to believe  that someone or something is reliable, good, honest, effective, etc. : to have confidence in (someone or something) : to believe that something is true or correct : to hope or expect that something is true or will happen You might say entrusting an assisted living community with the care of your parents or loved one is the ultimate act of trust.  It's common for the adult children of assisted living residents to live hundreds or thousands of miles away. It may have taken months or years to convince mother to make the move into an assisted living community. She isn't completely sold on the idea but is willing to give it a chance. It still sounds too good to be true; a community filled with loving people that will meet her every need and always have a smile on their face. It better be, because mom trusted your advice.  The key to building a family "trust account"  Imagine

Life Lessons Worth Sharing

What are your most valuable life lessons? One of the most important things we can do is pass along or share life's most important lessons in hope others will be wiser than we were. These are not in any particular order and I consider this a living blog. I am sure I will add, delete up date portions of this post as I continue to learn and experience. I would love your feedback and or hear about your most important life's lessons. Treat others as you would like to be treated . Its amazing how much this simple philosophy impacts you and others. This will certainly be different for each of us. Always do the rite thing . When faced with a decision just do the rite thing. If there are no guidelines or you must act quickly this a golden rule. It may not be the best decision but doing the rite thing can't be too bad. Gather the facts as best you can . This will normally lead you down the correct path. I use this when conducting investigations, resolving customer and

Are You Killing Success?

Throughout my career as a change agent, this quote by Tony Robbins or Henry Ford has been the simplest way to communicate the need to do things differently in order to achieve a different result. Many of us have had the good fortune to work with organizations that experienced remarkable success. They deservedly take great pride in the results of their blood, sweat and tears. As the years pass sustaining success becomes more challenging, yet some company's continue using the original formula that created their growth. Have you noticed as organizations grow some develop internal mini-organizations (much like our government) where even the smallest change may be dismissed or met with almost hostile resistance. Many times a great idea for improving employee engagement, service delivery or enhancing revenue, are only shared with  closest friends at happy hour for fear they would be flagged as having a negative attitude. They've witnessed other brave souls share new ideas with
