Friday I sent out an email titled "I Can Make You Successful In Two Sentences" and it got a lot of positive responses.  Basically, I said that the only two things you need to focus on for business success are:

1. Doing an extraordinary job.
2. Making sure a lot of people know about it.

I think it’s really odd that none of the marketing ‘gurus’ pay much attention to #1.

Actually – until I really brought some attention to it they didn’t mention it at all.

But think about it – could all the marketing in the world get you to go back to a restaurant that served you an awful meal?

Zappos is one of the most prominent online retailers in the world – do you know how much of their business comes from repeat buyers?

Over 74%.

And they’ve become the gold standard for doing an extraordinary job.

It’s not a coincidence.

So I’m going to keep sharing a ton of ways you ‘make sure a lot of people know about you’ – but this week I’m going to have three of the indsutry’s most respected pros – Bill Hartman, Mike Robertson and Eric Cressey do a couple of guest posts to help insure that you’re doing an extraordinary job.

I’d love to hear your thoughts on the role doing an extraordinary job plays in your success below.

Dedicated to your success,
