If you’re aspiring to satisfy your customers, then you’re aspiring to mediocrity.

That’s the fascinating premise of “From Impressed to Obsessed:  12 Principles for Turning Customers and Employees into Lifelong Fans” – a new book by Jon Picoult, who argues that to gain strategic advantage, companies must do more than just satisfy customers – they must impress them.

Picoult explains why building customer loyalty requires leaving indelible positive impressions on everyone you work with – not just shaping their experiences, but also shaping their memories.  He explores the cognitive science of customer experience, pinpointing the psychology-based strategies that beloved companies use to turn more sales prospects into customers, more customers into raving fans, and more employees into engaged brand ambassadors.

Join us for this special event where Jon will share insights from his book and take questions from the audience.
