Has one beautiful sentence

The idea is amazing and the anecdotes are somewhat inspiring, but sadly, there isn't that much that goes into the concept. The whole book can be comprehensively summarized in pretty much two or three sentences.

Great concept but left me wanting more

This book helped me to think harder about gifting and the positive byproducts associated with giving a quality gift, but it felt like mostly a promotion for his company.

I would have liked to have seen different and more gift examples... in the whole book he only mentions about 10 gifts that he and his partners have used. Also, the continual mention of bonus info if I go to his site and download the resources felt manipulative.... i bought the damn book so give me the info without jumping through hoops.

I like the idea, but overall it was lacking actionable steps and resources to make the process of "giftology" easy to implement.

I do not recommend this book.

Too promotional

The book keeps referencing his online website for content that should have been included in the audiobook

No bonus but an okay story of gift experiences

I found it to be a somewhat interesting story, but nothing overly exciting. There is value in the content but the author is short on details and rather sends you to his website for "bonus information" about 10 times throughout the book. I actually went looking for this promised bonus information, and after having to register for the newsletter, unfortunately couldn't find it. I feel a bit cheated.

This book was a very long advertisement for the office Co.

As a sales person of over 20 years I was hoping to glean valuable information from this book about giftgiving to clients. I was disappointed. It seems to have very little valuable information and be mostly a book pointing to the author’s Co. that is a gift service company that companies can hire. I found that it did not answer some very basic questions like, “what if your company does not want to pay for gifts? Should the sales rep? Would that make them personal rather than business gifts? Could they be a tax write-off?”, Or “What if you are in a regulated industry that does not allow gifts? Are there ways around it?“, I have run into both of these scenarios over the years and this book provided no valuable information for some of those basic questions. I think this information could have been compiled into a small pamphlet. It’s not really worth the read. I like the concept of giftgiving and the author is creative. However, I did not find his book to be useful, and the sales pitch for his company at the conclusion let me know the underlying purpose of the book.

Not what I expected but still liked it

This is more of a guided manual for what to do to impress your clients if you are a large corporation or dealing with clients that spend an absorbent about of money with your brand. But the message was still good and I still liked the book

Intentionally accurate

Realty good stuff and easy to listen and relate to my business. Thank you very much

Great strategy

I loved learning the impact of giving. Probably one of the most well presented writings I’ve listened to in a while.

getting back to the basics!

Really appreciated the insight and recommendations. Look forward to implementing this in both my personal and professional life.
