Nick mentioned some episode which stand out based on our flow:

Episode 23 with Jesse Cole – Owner of Savanah Bananas. He found out that he we not in baseball business but in delivering experiences
-
Episode 16 with John DiJulius, President DiJulius Group. Use FORD (Family, Occupation, Recreation and Dreams) on your employees and when you interact with customers. By writing a short note in your CRM you gain insights on your customers.
-
There are quite a lot of learning: Reducing effort, breaking silos, making it as easy as possible for customer to interact with a company.
