The Thimbles Summary

Amaze Every Customer Every Time

The book in one sentence

Customers are amazed by businesses whose own people are looked after first, so outstanding service is built from the inside out, through leadership, culture and many small, consistent habits.

Who it's for

Owners of service and retail businesses, customer service managers, team leaders on the front line, and anyone who wants loyal customers rather than one-off sales.

The big idea

Hyken has spent decades speaking and consulting on customer service, and calls himself his company’s Chief Amazement Officer. His argument is that amazing service doesn’t mean grand gestures. It means being consistently better than average, every time, so that customers know they can rely on you. That consistency can’t be bolted on by a customer service department. It comes from how a business treats its own staff, because employees who feel valued pass that experience on to customers.
