A Million Dollar Business Lesson...
By Petey Parker

A THREAD...

👇👇👇👇👇👇👇
A cab driver taught me a million dollar lesson in customer satisfaction and expectation. Motivational speakers charge thousands of dollars to impart
his kind of training to corporate executives and staff. It cost me a $12 taxi ride.

I had flown into Dallas for the sole .....
purpose of calling on a client.

Time was of the essence and my plan included a quick turnaround trip from and back to the airport. A spotless cab pulled up.

The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door.
As he got in the driver’s seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me for my use.

He then showed me several tapes and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.

Well! I looked around for a “Candid Camera!” Wouldn’t you? I could not believe the...
service i was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, “Obviously you take great pride in your work. You must have a story to tell.”

“You bet,” he replied, “I used to be in Corporate America. But I got tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to find...
my niche in life where I could feel proud of being the best I could be.

I knew I would never be a rocket scientist, but I love driving cars, being of service and feeling like I have done a full day’s work and done it well. I evaluate my personal assets and…
wham! I became a..
cab driver.
One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I could simply just meet the expectations of my passengers.

But, to be GREAT in my business, I have to EXCEED the customer’s expectations!

I like both the sound and the return of being ‘great’ better than just..
getting by on ‘average’”.

Did I tip him big time? You bet! Corporate America’s loss is the traveling folk’s friend!

Lesson: To be GREAT in business,strive to EXCEED your customer expectations.

Go and OVER DELIVER your promise and smile to the bank

Happy sunday

So finally,i now have the change to offload some stuffs in my brains.
Here is the promised ecommerce thread.

I will explain as much as i can here.But if you want to still get a hold me by than hand guide,you may then need to get my video course.

Basically,the ecommerce system..
in Nigeria is a localized form of droppings business.
Here it is all about importing products from China and reselling them using platforms and systems for a huge profit.

This ecom thread will open your eyes to the huge opportunity in importation without necessarily travelling..
out of the country or using millions of naira to bring in containers of goods. Here you can actually start from the comfort of your home and grow it from there.

Nigeria is an import dependent nation,so this business will not stop for a very long time to come.

So lets go there

#thread de bon aloi sur une idée très communément admise sur les #fakemed qui feraient mieux que la médecine conventionnelle ( je déteste ce terme)
"les médecines douces elles prennent en compte le patient dans son ensemble, alors que sinon on s’intéresse qu'à un organe"
Sous entendu les médecins ils sont tout sclérosés dans leur tête ils ne voient qu'un organe et en dehors de leur spécialité ils sont incapables de prendre l'individus dans son ensemble.
A contrario, les tenants des PNC (pratiques non conventionnelles, je n'appellerai pas ça de la médecine Déso pas déso) eux ils sont tout choupis ils s’intéressent au malade tout entier : est ce qu'il applaudit d'une certaine façon ou s'il aime les cornichons au clair de lune

Today Pink Legacy diamond from platinum necklace donated by Maharaja of Mysore to Tirumala Tirupati Temples known as 'Leonardo da Vinci of Diamonds' was auctioned by Christie's at Geneva despite our letter to PMO & temple mahant's warnings. But how did it reach there?
In its 251 years in business, Christie's sold only 4 such diamonds weighing more than 10 carats, this #TTD diamond was almost 20 carats and sold for a record $70 million to Harry Winston. But no one has bothered to ask still how did this diamond get there? abc.net.au/news/2018-11-1…
According to British auction house Christie's this Tirumala Tirupati temples diamond once belonged to the Oppenheimer diamond family. But how did this diamond reach there from #TTD? And what is this Oppenheimer family? We warned about this in detail to our PMO early this year.

💪A thread on amazing Twitter threads 😍👇
In the process of revamping my #Twitter profile (dormant earlier), I have come to appreciate the wonderful underutilized platform it is!
Some threads contain crisp knowledge capsules that can help many. Starting 1 on such curated content
1. I largely rely on this: threadreaderapp.com to find content
2. What I wish to share is what coincides largely with my interests- #Learning, #Investing, #Behavioralpsychology (#mentalmodels, #bias, etc), #Businessbooks, Industry insights/case studies, Life experiences, etc
3/n
 While it will be difficult to structure the order of content here, I will try to block threads by category (as noted above & more). Feel free to comment with any good thread that you would have come across. Cumulative learning always helps.
