QUOTES
- "The most important step of your first training program should be customer service. Customer service is important, and the incentive of employees going through that program."
- “Most of the time we try humor, of course. But the most important thing is to build your own standard. Build that standard so every time an employee walks in to your establishment, they go through this program before you expose them to the public.”
- “‘Let me see if I can make your experience great.’ You know, that's fundamentally a good approach. And we don't see that every day. But wouldn't we appreciate if somebody gave us a compliment without having to gain anything from it? And you would see, based on that, and I talked about customer loyalty before, customers will see that as a value to come to your store.”
