But Gratitude is more than simply saying \u201cthank you.\u201d Gratitude has the power & ability to move us from focusing on the negative to recognizing and cherishing what is positive in our lives. <\/em><\/p>

In business, gratitude gives us a competitive edge- FOR REAL! Just imagine if your company employed gratitude as a strategic weapon in the following areas:<\/em><\/p>

STAFFING:<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0You can always tell when a team of individuals FEELS appreciated.<\/em><\/p>

  1. They show up on time<\/em><\/li>
  2. They give their best effort<\/em><\/li>
  3. They do not waste as much company time<\/em><\/li>
  4. They work better with their team<\/em><\/li>
  5. They deliver a better service experience<\/em><\/li><\/ol>

    A grateful employer soon finds themselves surrounded by people who bring their heart and talents to work every day and that yields a definite competitive edge!<\/em><\/p>

    VENDORS:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Vendors who feel appreciated ACT differently!<\/em><\/p>

    1. They fill your orders first<\/em><\/li>
    2. They pay closer attention to accuracy<\/em><\/li>
    3. They work harder to resolve differences<\/em><\/li>
    4. They alert you to sales in a more timely manner<\/em><\/li><\/ol>

        Expressing gratitude for your\u00a0referral\u00a0partners can IGNITE your business!<\/em><\/p>

        CUSTOMERS:\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Customers who feel appreciated are game changers!<\/em><\/p>
