    Zero to 1B Hero: Watch Tony’s Story this Weekend

    Written by Rosalind Gardner

    It’s not often that I blog about a single speaker that I’ve seen at an event, but I did that back in February after attending the Undergound Seminar and hearing Tony Hsieh (sounds like ‘‘Shea’ or ‘Shay’) of Zappos speak.

    I’m not kidding when I say that listening to him talk about how he built his business on a customer-centric model and about the resultant incredible customer feedback that Zappos has received brought a tear to my eye and a seriously big lump in my throat.

    Tony is all heart and that’s how he runs his business.

    By result, Tony’s business went from ZERO in 1999 to a phenomenal $1B in sales just nine years later… and it’s recently been purchased by Amazon.

    Although that may seem somewhat out of our league, it’s a business model we would all do well to learn about and emulate.

    and now YOU can hear Tony speak… for FREE

    Although attendees at the always sold-out Underground Online Seminar paid up to $3,495.00 to hear Tony’s hour+ long presentation, you can watch the entire thing for FREE!

    To get access, all you need to do is supply your email addy.

    You’ll also get more uncensored footage from the Underground® seminar… my favorite of Internet marketing seminars to attend. (BTW, I was talking to Yanik this morning and there WILL be an underground 6.. yeah!)

    I promise you — Tony’s presentation is well worth a watch this weekend. Grab a coffee and make your morning internet marketing research  truly worthwhile. :-)

    Have a great one!!

    Cheers,
    Ros

    P.S.  I’ll be off-grid again this weekend so please be patient with comment moderation.

    P.P.S. BTW, if you sign up to watch Tony’s presentation, the entire series of Underground 5 footage will be made available to you.

    If you do decide to partake — i.e. buy the package (and I suggest you DO), I’ll throw in a 2-hour consultation with yours truly as a Purchase Bonus. I was there, and would love to talk with you about it … or anything else that you need to know about Internet marketing. Just drop me a line with your receipt # and we’ll schedule a time to chat.

      Yes, I remember tweeting Tony about not getting into Zappo’s affiliate program and he personally emailed me back.

      That’s GREAT customer service for a busy CEO of a $1 Billion company.

      Much favor to him.

      I’m fortunate enough to be a stay at home mom of 2 sets of twins. I’ve tried Amway, Melaleuca, Usana, surveys which due to my location I’m excluded from, etc to make additional money to no avail. Needless to say I am not good at cold calls or approaching people and hate it when it’s done to me. I need to make an honest income from home to help support my family and am now very cautious. I’ve been scammed many times and it just seems people want your credit card number. Any advise?

      I heard Tony speak at a business event last March & was blown away by his candor and authenticity. An amazing story & not to be missed. Very inspirational. If I was going to go back to having a regular “job”, I would definitely try to get a spot at Zappos.

      Cheers,
      Kari
