I highly recommend this book to anyone that owns a business or is president of their company. It's really sage advice from a guy who's working vehemently to improve the customer buying experience everywhere. The Hug your customer and Hug your people philosophy is the kind of world I want to live, work and shop in. There are some wonderful anecdotes, stories and methods to motivating, retaining and celebrating your people in this book. I highly recommend it as one to have in your business library and collection. Jack Mitchell has delivered once again. David Cohen Host Small Business Big Ideas Show 107.7 FM and 1580 CKDO
