Winning Hearts In A Season Of Social Distancing 

How do you show up in a powerful way when everyone is in panic and pulling back? 

Fact: times of uncertainty turn up the volume of your relationships. Clients, suppliers, and employees will always remember who had their backs in times of crisis.

John’s “against the grain” message teaches how to build out a relationship and loyalty action plan to survive a downturn.

But more importantly? How to position your company to rebound, recover, and thrive in “the new normal.” A virtual founder of a decade old, multimillion dollar company, John is well-positioned to help other business leaders in a time of lockdown. 

The Gift•ology Marketing System will leave your recipients speechless. Gain access, close new deals, and retain VIPs forever. No more strings-attached, tone deaf, ABC (Anniversaries, Birthday, Christmas) gifting. 

In this season of physical separation,bring people closer to you than ever before. As “experts” prognosticate about the future, here’s a prediction you can bet on – relationships matter now more than ever.
