Last month, the world lost a great man, John Ruhlin. John unexpectedly passed away and for the first time ever, I want to share a replay of an interview I did with John a while back. His message of giftology is so important to us personally and in our businesses and I know John would want us to keep sharing his message with others to make a greater impact on the world. Please feel free to share today's episode with others to help continue John's legacy. In this episode, John tells his fascinating story and talks about how he created Gift.ology. He explained how he developed an understanding of giving personal gifts and shared his best marketing and sales referral tools. He also discusses why you should focus on your inner circle and why he wrote the book Gift.ology. We hope you enjoy listening to today's enlightening conversation with John Ruhlin!

I bring you a special What Drives You episode with renowned author of “The Millennial Whisperer”, Chris Tuff. Chris was one of the first advertisers to work directly with Mark Zuckerberg in 2006 and filmed one of the first ever, “viral” videos, which landed him on the front page of The Wall Street Journal. Tuff's natural ability to connect with his nearly 80% millennial and Gen Z workforce led him to publish the national bestselling The Millennial Whisperer in 2019. A global movement soon followed, as the Atlanta resident shared lessons on empathy and genuine connection at work on some of the largest stages in the world including such Fortune 100 companies as Nike. I of course wanted to dig into Chris's personal drives, and you'll be interested to hear that his initial drive was simply to…beat his older brothers. In anything and everything. While that may not sound dramatic, the thread you'll keep hearing in these shows is how often seemingly innocuous events in our youth direct the trajectory of our lives and we don't even realize it. Chris went on to find himself just 7 years ago, burned out. A wife, two kids, great success in work, and totally spent. He took a month-long sabbatical and reinvented his life. In this episode you'll hear how his story unfolded, and through it I believe you'll find aspects that reveal similar issues in your life, that you can reinvent.

He shares his experience of building a small leadership team, which proved to be an incredible decision for their business's growth. Adam recommends several great books, including "The Millennial Whisperer" by Chris Tuff, which offers insights on effectively leading millennials. Other notable mentions are "E-Myth," "Built to Sell," and "Good to Great" by Jim Collins. He highlights three valuable resources. Firstly, he mentions the Grow A Small Business Podcast. Additionally, he recommends "The How of Business" with Henry Lopez and "Agents of Change," offering practical interviews and insights beneficial for small business owners. While not a physical tool, he emphasizes the importance of having a business mentor. He highlights the value of having someone who can walk alongside you, providing guidance and acting as a sounding board throughout your entrepreneurial journey. Adam's response is simple yet powerful—don't give up. He acknowledges the challenges and tough moments that all small business owners face but encourages perseverance and resilience to overcome obstacles.

Here's a scenario that happens all too often: somebody reaches out to me without doing any prior research, engages with me in a low-intent manner, and then makes a big ask of me. No effort was made to deepen our relationship or make a genuine connection, and I'm instantly turned off. Why do so many people conduct their outreach this way, and how can you ensure you don't fall into this trap? Enter Chris Tuff, Author of “Save Your Asks” and “The Milennial Whisperer.” Chris is an expert in building connections with high-intent, and shares his methodology to help you deliver value and build authentic relationships. Listen in as Chris and I discuss the give and take relationship that you need to master in order to maximize your network's value, and why “saving your asks” is a the cornerstone of activating your network effectively.

Every relationship requires the effort of both parties to work together effectively. While I'm not a big fan of customizing approaches to a particular generation, the reality is often that each generation's set of values (in business and personal life) require professionals of all ages to understand one another and navigate differences.    Enter Chris Tuff, Author of “Save Your Asks” and “The Milennial Whisperer.” Chris and I don't come from the same philosophy, and we have diverging opinions on numerous topics. However, by engaging in this debate, we explore new avenues of thinking that open us up to disagreement, but also allow us to learn from one another.   Listen in as Chris and I discuss millennial and Gen Z perspectives on technology, family, and interpersonal relationships, and share why you need to understand these to be effective in your business.

Learn more about Chris at the website www.ChrisTuff.me Books by Chris Tuff       ----- Excerpts from this conversation with Chris Tuff ----- There is nothing worse in life than complacency. ----- So 70%, generally speaking, of your job should actually fire you up and actually put this into tactics where on the first week that someone joins my team, I will have them take their job description and figure out what's in your 70% zone of excellence and fire you up. And then what's in your 30% zone of suck, right? Because the harsh reality, and I tell this to anyone willing to listen is that 30% of all of our jobs are gonna suck. ----- I went into an organization that had, okay, so they have 100,000 employees, but 2500 HR leaders, all right, which will give you perspective to just how much they put in their people and culture 2500 people. And so I dissected their data we did, we spent two months prepping for this meeting. And it all came down to just one big takeaway, which is just make it easy, everyone loves it here. But you make it so hard for people to actually move laterally to other parts of that organization. The simplest thing you can do is allow people to make those lateral job moves, because people are not leaving, because you make it so difficult, because you end up prioritizing those, those jobs for people from the outside. ----- Effective, authentic connection. How do you how do you know if it feels right? So authenticity is one of the things that's so few and far between in this world and my whole platform is around authentic connection. And, you know, one of the things that I emphasize is what I call the art of the fly by. And the art of the fly by is simply going by anyone on your team's desk and just saying, or, you know, in a hybrid workforce, texting them a video text message and say, George, that vacation you took last weekend look, epic. Tell me more about it. Like, I saw that you hung out at the beach and tried out surfing, that's awesome. Props to you. How did it go? Right? It's just taking a little bit of that vested interest in their daily lives, ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by improving your communication skills. We'll examine the aspects of how we communicate one-to-one, one to few and one to many – plus that important conversation, one to self.

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Jeff Bezos, “A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn a reputation by trying to do hard things well.”   YouTube: https://youtu.be/eHEaznMBZKQ   Check Out These Highlights:      After COVID I thought I had to reinvent my entire business and how I approached business.  It was all about learning and using technology to stay connected with my clients as well as continuing to build my community and connections.    Two years later I have realized that pre or post-pandemic, building real business relationships has not changed.  Yes, we need technology, and we need to continue to build our skills by connecting deeply with new prospects and clients using technology as a tool.    Whether it's Zoom, LinkedIn, Instagram, or another platform, today's technology ensures we're always connected. And yet sometimes I can feel more alone than ever.  Have we lost the art of developing genuine kinships with each other?   About Chris Tuff:  Chris was one of the first advertisers to work directly with Mark Zuckerberg in 2006 and filmed one of the first “viral” videos, which landed him on the front page of The Wall Street Journal. Tuff's natural ability to connect with his nearly 80% millennial and Gen Z workforce led him to publish the national bestselling The Millennial Whisperer in 2019.  Chris is on a mission to help business leaders create connections that make work cultures thrive, improve retention rates, and multiply sales.   How to Get in Touch With Chris Tuff:  Email:  chris@christuff.me Website:  http://www.christuff.me/   Stalk me online!

Despite being more connected than ever before, many are also more isolated. The tools and technology available today have pushed business owners, entrepreneurs, and motivated professionals toward shallow, surface-level engagement, robbing them of connections, opportunities, profits, and fulfillment. Bestselling author Chris Tuff shares his transformative approach to building genuine, productive business relationships. No more stale bagels or […] The post Save Your Asks, With Chris Tuff first appeared on Business Creators Radio Show with Adam Hommey.

Chris Tuff is the partner of the advertising firm 22squared where he has helped them grow into a 400-plus employee digital powerhouse, over 90% millennials and Gen Z. He's also the author of the best-selling book The Millennial Whisperer where he shares lessons on empathy and genuine connection. In his newest book, Save Your Asks, he talks about becoming a better networker and salesperson using the same principles set up in The Millennial Whisperer. One of his favorite tips for making an ask that's impossible to ignore is called “masking your ask in your dream.” If you share your dream with someone, whatever it is, they are almost guaranteed to do anything within their power to help you achieve it. Building a new relationship is easy, but sustaining one is hard. And making too many asks is one easy way to drive a relationship into the ground. So save your asks, and start building up genuine connections with people.   The Biggest Helping: Today's Most Important Takeaway “Start saving your asks. Curiosity is the difference between connecting and networking. If you take a genuine curiosity to the person sitting next to you and stop selling to them and start asking them some of these important questions of what drives them as humans, you're going to find not only more successful in your job. It's going to make your connections a lot more fulfilling. And so I encourage everyone to start saving their asks and take action towards more genuine connection.” -- Thank you for joining us on The Daily Helping with Dr. Shuster.

Today, we are happy to be speaking with the legendary John Ruhlin! John is the founder of Giftology, and he is full of energy and great ideas! In this episode, John tells his fascinating story and talks about how he created Giftology. He explains how he developed the understanding of giving personal gifts and shares his best marketing and sales referral tool. He also discusses why you should focus on your inner circle and why he wrote the book Giftology. We hope you enjoy listening to today's enlightening conversation with John Ruhlin! JOHN RUHLIN BIO:  John Ruhlin is the world's leading authority in maximizing customer loyalty through radical generosity. He is the founder and author of Gift·ology and has been featured in Fox News, Forbes, Fast Company, Inc, and the New York Times. While becoming the #1 performer out of 1.5 million sales reps for one of the world's most recognizable brands, John developed a system of using generosity to gain access to elite clients and generate thousands of referrals. He and his firm now help automate this process for individuals and organizations like UBS, Raymond James, DR Horton, Keller Williams, the Chicago Cubs, and Caesar's Palace. John and the Gift·ology team can help any individual turn their clients into their own personal sales force to drive exponential growth. John's story John grew up in a modest family on a farm in a small town in Ohio. He learned, early on, that if he wanted something, he had to work for it. John did very well at school and wanted to become a doctor or a chiropractor. But his life and plans changed after he started dating a girl whose father, Paul, was a generous rain-making attorney. Mentorship Paul showed up in unusual ways for his relationships. That inspired John to want to be just like him at sixty. John was interning with Cutco, selling knives to pay for med school. He was not good at selling, and after he pitched to Paul, Paul offered to help him hit his goals.  Relationships Paul taught John that everything boiled down to relationships. Paul explained that if you take care of the family in business, everything else takes care of itself. That struck a chord with John. He started to mimic Paul in his relationships and sent some expensive knives to some CEOs he wanted to meet with as gifts. After pitching the CEO of a large insurance company, John walked out with an order for 1,000 knife sets! Number 1 distributer Cutco has worked with about 2,000,000 sales reps over 70 years. John became their number one distributor in the entire global history of the company by using the idea of giftology!  Giftology Giftology is about building relationships. If you want referrals, deal flow, or employee retention, you need to inspire people to want to advocate on your behalf. The best marketing sales referral tool  John learned early on that if you go all-in and show something in your relationships, it will come back to you a hundred-fold. He found it one of the best marketing sales referral tools on the planet!  All over the world John now owns a consulting agency that teaches people how to do giftology. He also writes books and speaks about it all over the world.  The core of his business The core of John's business is teaching people how to love relationships thoughtfully and at scale, while moving people emotionally. What John discovered about gifts  John discovered that it does not help to send people a gift with your logo on it. It is better to send them something personal with their name on it.  A recipe for building relationships John noticed that there was a recipe for building relationships with giftology. For it to work, you have to follow the recipe to the letter because every tiny detail and every intention counts. We were designed to want to reciprocate and do nice things for people who do things for us with no strings attached. Kindness, generosity, and love Everyone wants to be appreciated, acknowledged, and loved. The companies crushing it all lead with kindness, generosity, and love. They care for their employees and clients and invest in them. The inner-circle John believes that the inner circle matters just as much as the person writing the checks because those people influence the decisions. A six-figure deal John closed a six-figure deal with a basketball team because he treated the inner circle the same as he treated the CEO.  Event planners John treats event planners like gold because they have gone out of their way at times to become sales reps for his brand.  Show up repetitively and consistently When you move from being passively loyal to being actively loyal and show up repetitively and consistently for a relationship because you want to, not because you have to, the relationship will flourish. John's book, Giftology John wrote the book to spread the idea of giftology to others. He also wanted to drive credibility, have a global impact, and be the first one in the leadership space to talk about using gratitude and generosity to grow relationships and revenue. He has sold 110,000 copies in the last six years, and it changed everything for him! Covid Covid has shifted the priorities of many, but humans still need to connect. So although Covid made John realize that he can have an impact from afar, he still enjoys appearing on a big stage once or twice a month, shaking hands with people, and signing books.   Connect with Eric On LinkedIn On Facebook On Instagram On Website   Connect with John Ruhlin On LinkedIn Books mentioned: Giftology: The Art and Science of Using Gifts to Cut Through the Noise, Increase Referrals, and Strengthen Client Retention, by John Ruhlin Jab, Jab, Jab, Right Hook, by Gary Vaynerchuk Save Your Asks: Evolve Your Networking Currencies.

My guest today is Chris Tuff, Best selling author of the book, "The Millennial Whisperer."Every generation believes they are the best. You can often hear rumbling in a workspace about what “the kids these day” are doing wrong, or differently than the previous generation. This is no different as millennial have taken over the workspace.Millennials are the generation that grew up in the technology boom when personal computers and the internet changed the landscape of the world forever.

Here it is 2020, and a good part of the population scratches their head when the subject of Millennials and Gen Z comes up. With the pandemic completely changing how things are done in the working world for the foreseeable future, it would seem that these generations are going to be the ones left picking up the pieces and reassembling the economy in their own way.So what exactly does that look like? For the most part, we know what it looks like for entrepreneurs. But the usual 9 to 5 world is going to change drastically in the next 5 to 10 years. Like after 9/11, when we were all about ramping up security, are we going to now see a continued uptick in technology use specifically geared towards maintaining healthy workplaces? How will this change the workplace overall?
