My favorite business books are not just about sales and marketing. They're about leading, about teaming, about design, about writing, about blogging, about creativity, ...

To be remembered and called by name. To feel special. To be treated with respect. To know they can trust you. Customers want it. We all want it. When you run into someone you haven't seen for awhile and they genuinely smile, shake your hand or touch your arm, call you by name, remember you love to fish or work out, paint or write or cook or ...
