The Black Tie Experience is what each of us seeks every day in our personal and professional relationships. Bob provided valuable guidance on how we can all do better by being better! From the planning side of things, he is also great and not demanding – something we all seek in keynote presenters." President & CEO

The “Big 4” to creating more storytellers for your organization!

Are you eager to break free from blending in as just another organization in your community? Want to stand out and be truly loved by your customers and employees? In this seminar, we'll explore the power of hospitality and service excellence to transform your organization into a customer favorite. Bob, with over 30 years of entrepreneurial experience in providing top-notch hospitality, will share his proven "Big 4" framework for delivering a Black Tie (or first-class) customer service experience.

The Five Essential Laws of Hospitality (to build Loyalty, Retention, and Revenue)

How often does your brand get talked about? When people talk about your organization to others, do they become passionate storytellers, sharing their positive experiences? Customer service is undoubtedly important, but it's not enough. To truly captivate customers and turn them into brand ambassadors, you need to master the art of hospitality. While customer service brings people in, hospitality is essential as it keeps them coming back. By focusing on the emotional connection and personalized experiences that hospitality offers, you'll create a lasting impression and foster customer loyalty, retention, and revenue growth. And you'll discover these 5 Laws of Hospitality and how to apply them to your business and transform your customers from a “state of satisfaction” to a “state of loyalty”.

Becoming REMEMORABLE!

Why do some organizations effortlessly capture the hearts and minds of their customers, while others struggle to stand out in the crowd? What sets these exceptional organizations apart? In today's competitive landscape, it's no longer enough to simply provide good service. To thrive, organizations must create rememorable experiences that leave a lasting impression. This seminar will equip you with the strategies and tools to elevate your hospitality and service excellence, transforming your organization into a customer-centric powerhouse. In this seminar, Bob will share his research as he has talked to organizations like yours to learn about their efforts to boost loyalty, engagement, retention, and revenue, and to cultivate more storytellers for their organization.

Would YOU do business with YOU? (Becoming your customer- what do you see?)

Have you ever put yourself in your customer's shoes? When was the last time you experienced your business from their perspective? This interactive seminar will transform you into a customer, guiding you through the customer journey and highlighting the critical "Impact Points" that shape their experience, which may now be one of the most important elements in creating this first-class (or Black Tie) experience. By understanding the little details that can make a big difference, you'll gain valuable insights into how your customers perceive your organization. From the moment they first interact with your brand to the after-sales service they receive; we'll explore how every Impact Point can influence their decision to do business with you.

Busting Myths on Employee Recruitment and Retention

Are you ready to move beyond the same old excuses about employee shortages and high turnover rates? It’s time to debunk the myths and uncover real strategies for attracting and retaining top talent. In this interactive seminar, we’ll dive deep into the common misconceptions surrounding employee recruitment and retention. Just like the popular TV show “MythBusters,” we’ll put these myths to the test and reveal the truth about:

  • Employee Experience
  • Workplace Culture
  • Hiring, Onboarding, and Training
  • Soft Skills
  • Leadership

Shifting Your Mindset from Fear to Fortitude

What if you were given the opportunity to do the one thing you fear the most? Would you do it? For many of us, the answer is a resounding “heck no!” We all have fears, some larger than others. Managing these fears is critical for our physical and mental well-being.

Imagine looking fear in the face and saying, “Nope, I’ve got this.” Is it easy? No. Can it be done? Absolutely. And I am living proof. I conquered my greatest fear and turned it into my livelihood. Initially, I never intended to present on this topic. It was easier to hide my fear from myself and others. But life forced me to make a choice, and I chose Fortitude. I realized that it’s okay to have fears, but even better to have the fortitude to face them and manage them. This presentation isn’t just a feel-good, inspirational story. It’s an uplifting and powerful narrative that provides actionable steps your audience can implement in their own journeys, whatever they may be.
