Prima carte din Rom?nia despre p?strarea clien?ilor Aceasta nu este o biblie ?n domeniu, dar este un must read pentru oricine vrea s? p?streze un client. ?Cred ?n Customer Retention. Cred ?n Lovemarks. Cred ?n Customer Experience ca form? evoluat? a loialit??ii. Cred ?n cei mai buni. Cred ?n exper?i, ?n cei care nu se vor mul?umi cu a fi exper?i din titulatur?, ci din convingeri ?i idei proprii.” Acesta este manifestul cu care ??i ?ncepe Mihai Dragnea pledoaria pentru autenticitate, responsabilitate ?i creativitate ?n rela?ia cu clien?ii. ?n goana dup? market share ?i profit se investesc foarte multe resurse ?n atragerea clien?ilor noi, iar rela?ia cu clien?ii existen?i este adeseori neglijat?. Foarte important: Customer Retention nu se refer? la loializarea clien?ilor, ci la p?strarea celor care inten?ioneaz? s? renun?e. Customer Loyalty este pentru cei pe care vrei s? ?i r?spl?te?ti c? ??i sunt clien?i. Este vorba despre dou? segmente diferite c?rora trebuie s? le corespund? abord?ri de business distincte. Clien?ii ??i exprim? opiniile oriunde, online mai ales, ?i au o mare putere de decizie, inclusiv pe aceea de a schimba valorile ?i credin?ele unei companii. A-i trata nediferen?iat pe cei care vor s? renun?e la produsele ?i serviciile tale ?i pe cei care ??i sunt fideli este ca ?i cum ai trage cu tunul la un concurs de tir cu arcul. ?A? recomanda aceast? carte ca lectur? obligatorie pentru toate persoanele dintr-o companie, de la front office p?n? la management. ?n orice moment ?i la orice palier ierarhic, pot fi luate decizii care s? ajute compania s? ??i p?streze clien?ii mul?umi?i ?i aceast? mul?umire s? fie tradus? ?n fidelitate. Mihai ne arat? exact cum trebuie tratat? problema reten?iei ?i reu?e?te s? explice importan?a unor decizii potrivite luate ?n deplin? cuno?tin?? de cauz?, at?t business, c?t ?i customer oriented.” - Andrei Cismaru, Social Media Manager at Bitdefender ?Mihai este un artist des?v?r?it. Iar arta sa st? ?n m?iestria cu care reu?e?te s? pun? ?n practic? una dintre cele mai frumoase discipline de business, rela?ia cu clien?ii.” - M?d?lina Vil?u, Managing Director, Marketing Insiders Group ?This is retention vine cu informa?ii foarte bine documentate despre loializare ?i reten?ie, dou? instrumente de marketing despre care nu mul?i ?tiu c? sunt diferite. Cu un stil diplomatic ?i pe alocuri umoristic, Mihai ne vorbe?te despre provenien?a acestor instrumente ?i ne ajut? s? le diferen?iem prin simpla aprofundare a istoriei lor. Speciali?tii ?n marketing vor ?n?elege, dup? citirea acestei c?r?i, c? uneori ?i-au targetat gre?it clien?ii, dar vor ?ti ce ?i cum s? ?mbun?t??easc? pe viitor.”- Gabriela Udeanu, Founder, Buzzle.ro

Many inspired people miss the opportunities of being gifted the way they are because they don't have the will or the discipline to move the inspiration from their soul to their hands. If you are the kind of person that is full of inspiration, loads of ideas, and have plenty knocking around in your head, but none of that has materialized, then there is a good chance what you need is more discipline.?In most circles among adults, suggesting discipline is problematic because it feels like that word is reserved for kids. Yes, there is one kind of discipline that is reserved for kids. But the kind of discipline that you need to attain the kind of success you are thinking of is very different than the picture that emerges at the invocation of the word. The discipline you need is the kind that will allow you to take control over your thoughts and actions.?We may have all the other attributes that are required to be successful, but if we lack the discipline then all bets are off. That's usually where the problem is when you've gone through tons of books, tons of seminars, and you still can't translate inspiration into action.?This book will show you the reason discipline is elusive to many people and why the lack of success becomes the norm. You can't just turn on discipline in many cases, you need to understand yourself and understand the reason your greatness is stuck within you struggling to come out.?? Don't wait any longer! Scroll up and click the 'Buy Now' button and start instilling more discipline in your life to help achieve your dreams!

Victor Niederhoffer ve Laurel Kenner'in Pratik Spekülasyon (Practical Speculation) adl? kitab?nda, bal??a ??kma zaman? konusunda ?aka ile kar???k baz? ger?ek?i de?erlendirmeler yap?lm??. Bunlar, yorumlar?mla a?a??da: a) Bal?klar?n yemlenmesi s?ras?nda mutlaka g?lde olun. ?rne?in, para arz? bir nedenle art?yorsa, bundan do?rudan etkilenecek hisse senedi gibi enstrümanlara yat?r?m yap?n. Yabanc?lar girmeye ba?lam??larsa, siz de borsada al?m yapmaya ba?lay?n. b) G?lde gere?inden fazla bal?k?? varsa, siz bal??a ??kmay?n. Bu, kalabal?k bir bi?imde sizin b?lgenizdeki bal?klar? da ürkütecektir. Herkes ayn? hisse senedine veya yat?r?m alan?na yat?r?m yapmaya ba?lam??sa o yat?r?mda iyi k?r kalmam?? demektir. c) Ava iyi haz?rlan?n. Kullanaca??n?z malzemeler iyi haz?rlanm?? ve yeterli olsun. Bal?k tutma i?i, biraz da sab?r i?idir. Bazen k?r, zaman i?inde elde edilir. Ne zaman, hangi enstrümana ve nas?l yat?r?m yapaca??n?z? ?nceden haz?rlay?n. Hislerinize kulak verin. d) Sessiz olun. Gürültü, bal?klar? ka??r?r. Fikirlerinizi ve piyasada mevcut f?rsat olas?l??? konusundaki bilginizi, ba?kalar?yla payla?may?n. e) Bal?k olmad??? bilinen b?lgede avlanmaya kalkmay?n. G?lün altyap?s?n? ve avlayaca??n?z bal???n davran?? bi?imlerini iyi ??renin. Elektronik olarak bal?klar?n yerini g?steren aletler iyidir, ama onlar?n oltalar? yoktur. Hi? kimsenin al?m yapmad??? yerde, sizin al?ma ba?laman?z zamans?z olabilir. ?te yandan, hisselerin veya di?er yat?r?m ara?lar?n?n yükselece?i veya dü?ece?i y?nünde yap?lan matematiksel tahminler, birer bilgidir, ama bal?k yakalama, bilginin, ?ans?n ve hissetmenin bir kar???m?d?r. f) Bütün haz?rl?klar?n?z tamam olsa bile bazen bal?k, zokay? yutmaz. Cesaretinizi k?rmay?n. ?yi zaman ge?irdi?inizi dü?ünün. Bu i?i en iyi bilenlerin bile, istatistiksel olarak sadece % 60 ba?ar?l? olduklar? ger?e?ini unutmay?n. g) Bazen, bal?k tutmak de?il, bal?klar? beslemek zorunda kalabilirsiniz. G?lün avlanmaya haz?r olmas? i?in bu gerekli olabilir. Fiyatlar yükselmeye ba?lay?nca siz de trende uyun. Yükselme trendine giren piyasa, iyi al?m zaman? demektir. h) Bazen büyük bal?klar, oltan?zdaki yemi ?alarlar. Bu durumda oltan?za yeni yem tak?p bal?k vurmas?n? ?ok dikkatle takip edin. Büyük oyunculara ?abuk teslim olmay?n. Büyükler, piyasaya bir ara hakim olsalar da piyasadan ?ekilecekleri bir zaman vard?r. O zaman? kollay?n. i) Karaya ne zaman d?nece?inizi iyi hesaplay?n. G?lde f?rt?naya yakalanmay?n. Piyasan?n dü?me sinyallerini iyi g?rün. Zaman?nda elinizdekileri sat?p nakde d?nün.

Yes - There Is Work-Life Balance! … but it’s probably not what you think. Too many academics and HR departments have defined work-life balance in superficial ways that make it unattainable, undesirable, or both. Common sense dictates that if something you desire is ill-defined or “impossible,” your outcomes will be disappointing and potentially even harmful. ?But sadly, common sense hasn’t been common practice. Redefining Work-Life Balance?is about creating life-altering, positive results. These pages convey a way to deliver powerful results using simple, one-minute tools proven to enhance life balance and enjoyment. The outcome is reduced stress, increased achievement, and more joy every day – for the rest of your life!

Part Three is about achieving the things you want in life. It delivers two tools that supercharge your thinking. You will get more good thinking done with each of these tools in minutes than most people get done in days, weeks, or even a lifetime of typical pondering. You will also discover two balance measurement tools: one gauges your emotional status and reactions, the other illuminates your current emphasis in life and enables you to adjust it easily if it is not where you want it to be. Part Four concludes these pages using your definition of a good work-life balance to clarify your Way of Life goals. These goals are not specific markers to surpass or milestones to accomplish, they are instead way of living goals. What are the most meaningful and important outcomes you want from your life every day? You will be surprised how quickly these meaningful and often life-changing goals become clear with this final tool in the book. My promise to you is that by applying these proven tools, you will create immediate positive outcomes, personally and professionally. More importantly, based on the feedback I have received across demographics, countries, and cultures, I expect that you too will retain and use your favorite tools along with your re-definition of work-life balance to be happier, less stressed, and more fulfilled over your lifetime.

The untold story of the renegade burger chain that evokes a passionate following unlike any other In fast-food corporate America, In-N-Out Burger stands apart. Begun in a tiny shack in the shadow of World War II, this family-owned chain has stead fastly refused to franchise or be sold. It is a testament to old-fashioned values and reminiscent of a simpler time when people, loyalty, and a freshly made, juicy hamburger meant something. Over time, In-N-Out Burger has become nothing less than a cultural institution that can lay claim to an insanely loyal following. Perman uses her investigative skills to uncover the story of a real American success story. It is not only a tale of a unique and profitable business that exceeds all expectations, but of a family's struggle to maintain a sustainable pop empire against the industry it helped pioneer, internal tensions, and a bitter lawsuit that threatened to bring the company to the brink. This is a lesson in a counterintuitive approach to doing business that places quality, customers, and employees over the riches promised by rapid expansion. In-N-Out Burger is a keenly observed narrative that explores the evolution of a California fad that transformed into an enduring cult of popularity; it is also the story of the conflicted, secretive, and ultimately tragic Snyder family who cooked a billion burgers and hooked a zillion fans. As the story of In-N-Out Burger unfolds, so too does the cultural history of America as influenced and shaped by car culture and fast food.
