The Economy of the Next Fifty Years will be run by Customer Service

The days of begging for likes are over. The customer economy is all about doing likeable things. As the network gets smarter and smarter, it'll know your favorite places before you do, and share those with the world - when the world is looking. So if your friends are looking for a doctor in New York City, and you live there, it'll show them who you use, automatically, because logic suggests that if you go there a lot, you like the place, and your friends usually like what you like. It's not private if you're already posting from there, remember. What does this mean for your business? It means that it's time to start focusing on the customer experience - Without that, no amount of advertising, marketing, or SEO will save you. Your audience will learn: • The five rules of the customer economy • Why speed matters • How to stay "top-of-mind" in every customer's mind, from beginning to end • How millennials, as well as Generations Z and Alpha are consuming content, and how you can get in front of them

How the Travel, Tourism, and Hospitality Industry Can Win the Customer Economy Wars

Other than a marriage, there is nothing that is shared more throughout the social landscape than a vacation. Whether it's an Instagram of your plane's wing in the air to announce that you're going somewhere and your friends aren't, to a sad face as you're leaving the beach for the last time before you go home, vacations are made for sharing, sharing, oversharing, and sharing some more. But... This also leaves you wide open for any negative experiences, as well. The key is NOT to ask for a review, or beg for a like. The key is to refocus your energy not on chasing the likes, but on doing more likable things. In the end, the days of Yelp are numbered. Instead, the network will know what we do as we're doing it, and will gauge our happiness or dissatisfaction based on the sentiment of our shares. When people in our network start looking for vacation or travel ideas, they won't have to look for reviews - their friend's vacations will simply appear in front of them. In other words, the network will know what they want, and only show them recommendations from people they trust, who have already had good experiences. (Hint: Google is already doing this.) What does that mean for the travel, tourism, and hospitality industry? It means you need to start thinking about how you're treating your customers offline, long before they go online. Your audience will learn: • The five rules of the new customer economy • Why "nice" matters • How to stay "top-of-mind" in every customer's brain, from before they plan their trip until long after the return home • How millenia travel, and how generations Z and Alpha are plotting to take their travel to the next level over the next fifty years.

Catering to the ADHD Economy

In addition to being a bestselling customer service and marketing author, Peter also hosts the award-winning podcast Faster Than Normal, where he discusses the benefits of ADD and ADHD. Put the two together, and Peter will offer your audience unique and proven techniques to reach your audience in the 2.7 seconds of attention span they first offer to you. Your audience will learn: • What five keywords will hold a consumer's attention • How Peter's first company went from 0 to 250,000 users with a 79% daily engagement rate. • How to create content that your audience simply must share • How to get your audience to do your PR, sales, and marketing for you!

Putting on your own oxygen mask first: Entrepreneur Self-Care

Designed for today's startup culture, Peter leads an engaging and truly needed conversation on the world of the startup-entrepreneur, and how it could secretly be killing you. Entrepreneurship is an exciting road, but a lonely one, as well. In this honest and open talk, Peter shares his successes, his failures, and what he needs to do every day to make sure he stays on track, and doesn't wind up imploded on the side of the road. Your entrepreneurial audience will learn: • Five "must dos" each morning that equate to success • The top ten habits of repeatedly successful entrepreneurs • How to take care of your brain and body in eight minutes per day • Why being open about what you do is actually more beneficial than not sharing • How to build your trusted support system
