It forces us to focus on the <em>people<\/em> that allow our company to flourish, rather than our products. As amazing as your product may be, your company wouldn&#8217;t grow without loyal customers or employees. So how do we let them know we&#8217;re FOR them? We care about them as customers\/employees, but as people too? How do we become our customers\/employees&#8217; biggest fans? Once you&#8217;ve mastered this, you&#8217;ll have long-lasting customer relationships + loyal employees that will revolutionize your business!<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>What did you learn from this book?<\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udcda <\/span>There are brands actively focusing on their PEOPLE over their product, right now. Some of them are brands I&#8217;m a huge fan of and never noticed just how they were making me FEEL when I interacted with them on social media.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in the book Jeff outlines how the company Chubbies is thriving by showing their customers they are FOR them. My husband and I love the beach so everything about their brand and fun swimsuit prints speaks to us!<\/p>\n<p>When you go to the chubbies, you&#8217;re going to see\u00a0<em>some<\/em>\u00a0fancy-pants-styled-shoot photos. But what you&#8217;re\u00a0<em>mostly<\/em>\u00a0going to see is REAL customer photos they use to sell their products. AND they even TAG them! Think about how\u00a0<em>special<\/em>\u00a0that makes these customers feel. But also, think about how relatable that makes their company to prospective customers.<\/p>\n<p>Being\u00a0<em>genuinely<\/em>\u00a0FOR your people pays!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>What kind of reader would like this?<\/b><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udcda <\/span>Someone who is interested in the people-side of marketing and running a biz.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>What is your favorite quote from the book?<\/b><\/div>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\ud83d\udcda <\/span>&#8220;What do we want to be known FOR?\u00a0 What are we known FOR?..
