Today, host John Laurito talks about a mistake that business owners often overlook in decision-making. As a leader, you need to ensure that there is a good return to an investment your company just made. If you are a business owner, all the more that you need to figure out how to turn a profit and give your clients or customers the best experience. Start thinking about the system and processes you have in place that may be a blunder, and if you are having a hard time doing so, get perspective from the outside AKA hire a coach.

In this episode, host John Laurito talks about the importance of consistently asking your clients for feedback. It's human nature for most customers to walk away and not come back instead of telling that company how they really feel. Especially for industries with a lot of competition, it's easier for customers to switch than to go through the pain of giving feedback. So as a leader, learn to ASK for feedback and not wait for it.

Show notes:
[1:58] Why do we not tell people how we feel?
