In this episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast, I interview Joey Coleman. He is the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Never Lose a Customer Again, an award-winning speaker, and works with organizations around the world ranging from small startups to major brands. His new book, Never Lose an Employee Again: The Simple Path to Remarkable Retention, offers a proven framework for increasing employees retention, engagement, and in the process, profits. Joey explains how companies should focus on the employee journey from the first day on the job. A new employee's first-day experience should be welcoming and inclusive, and companies should assign someone to be responsible for the entire journey from the first time the employee hears about the business until they're up and running a hundred days later. By doing so, retention numbers can significantly improve. It’s important to understand that we have humans who work at our company and celebrate them for their humanity, not only of their product.   More About Joey Coleman: Website: joeycoleman.com Get your copy of Never Lose an Employee Again More About The Agency Certification Intensive Training: Learn more Take The Marketing Assessment: Marketingassessment.co  This episode of the Duct Tape Marketing Podcast is brought to you by the HubSpot Podcast Network.
