Model Disney’s “What to Expect” System

As we book our second family trip to Disney, I am delighted to observe the additional services they have put into place over the past decade.

The customer service system prior to the visit is incredible.  They have sent us both email and fun print information about what to expect and how to improve upon our experience before we arrive.   They make it look like so much fun and they build excitement.  This is an excellent model to follow.

What kind of “What to Expect” documents can you create that you can deliver to customers and clients?   How can you generate excitement about your business to new customers?  Many of my clients include a special offer or a time sensitive offer in their “What to Expect” information and they get good results.  People actually read the “What to Expect” information because, well, they want to know what to expect!

I hope this tip helps you add some good value to your business.  Get creative and have some fun with it!

When We Lose Someone We Love

My heart goes out to the local family who lost their son this week in a tragic accident.  Makes us all think about the people we love in this world and how much we want to appreciate all the time we have with them.  Life is fleeting.  It’s so important that we do our best to spend our time wisely and with the people we care about.

Sending warmest wishes and condolences to the family and all of you who have lost someone you love.

Our Family Skiing in Colorado

Not much we love more than skiing as a family.  Even little Jaden rocks it down black slopes, cruising around moguls as big as she is, because she wants to keep up with everyone!  It’s such a fun family adventure.  We are fortunate to be able to do it (helps that my parents have a house in Colorado).

Hope that you are creating some fun time with your family- whether it’s with your children, parents, siblings, or friends that have become “family”.  Life is too short not to have fun with people you love!

Fun in New York City

Can you tell Mark and I had fun in NYC last weekend?  After walking all over the city, one of my greatest joys, we met up with Katie and Linda in the picture- two of my closest friends.   Prior to meeting them, we had dinner at Il Buco- a fabulous, cozy Italian restaurant (highly recommend it) with Cathy and Pat- a couple we love.   Fun night and yes, a slight headache the next day.  Sometimes those kind of days, vacillating between “real talk” and silly laughter, are just what we need to re-energize our lives and our businesses.
