“Well, this one time I had a not-for- profit organization call me and ask for a donation in exchange for a certificate package worth over $3,500 in free offers and buy-one-get-one-free offers. So next time whenever I walked inside the store and saw that the employee had done a good job of making sure that the store was clean, well kept and everything stocked up, I would go ahead and give them a gift certificate so that they feel their hard work is appreciated since that ultimately would translate into sales because only if your employees are happy that they will make sure that your customers are happy and vice-versa. I would also reward them if they recommended an item that we didn't carry but the customer requested we did.”
- Samir Shah, Warren Travel Plaza
