Plenty of businesses exist, but only some get lifelong customers. So how do you create something genuine that’s built to last? Emily Frisella, a multi-passionate entrepreneur, knows that authentic connections are the answer a lot of businesses are missing.

With her “no woo-woo” approach, Emily shows why genuine relationships are the secret ingredient to success in every area of business and life. Inside this book, Emily shares practical advice on how to use her key tenets, including:
Respect the potential and significance of every person. Show appreciation and gratitude. Demonstrate personal accountability. Make it your best work. Create a culture of improvement. Have fun, act with integrity, and think big.
This business leadership book combines personal development with strategic relations principles.
Level up your business and learn why a relationships-first mentality is a mindset for success.
I’m a big fan of the Frisella family (husband Andy created the 75 HARD)!! This book was straight to the point and a quick read. Some new info given but most things are items I am already working on in my business/life
This was a quick read with lots of good info. It’s nothing ground breaking but I felt it was relatable and laid in a way that makes sense. I enjoyed learning more about Emily’s experiences with business and it was written in a manner that felt like having a conversation. The “workbook” section in the back was a pleasant surprise and makes total sense after learning more about her attention to detail and always anticipating her customers needs.
There's nothing earth-shattering new in this book, but I think it has a lot of really great advice and reminders to help build, maintain, and create a great business. All while keeping in mind a key component to have a successful in your business by creating and maintaining positive relationships.
I highly recommend this book for anyone starting a business, owns a business or leads a team.
