"Creating a WOW experience for customers starts with creating a WOW experience for employees and both need to be based on your purpose. This book can show you how." (Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos.com, Inc. and New York Times bestselling author of Delivering Happiness 2015-09-09)

"With their latest book, Shaun Smith and Andy Milligan delve even further into the fabric of customer-focused companies, exploring the very purpose of these brands, and making a convincing correlation between customer advocacy and a strong sense of company purpose.... But On Purpose isn't just thought-provoking - it is also action-provoking. It will surely generate an urgent sense of soul-searching amongst those whose brands are built as money-making machines. But it will also encourage those brands built on more purposeful foundations to revisit their philosophies and ensure that these are being clearly communicated both to employees and customers. The key message of this terrific book is that brands need to be engaging and inspiring to stand out from the crowd. And without a clear sense of purpose - within the company, its leaders, its staff and its communications - brands will struggle to be distinctive."
