| | | This brings a tear to my eye every time...
It was a Wednesday afternoon when my assistant came into my office. She said that one of our customers had been waiting on the phone for a while to talk with me. He said it was important.
I picked up the phone and the gentleman on the other end of the phone said, "My name is Pat Shaughnessy and I love your products, but that's not why I'm calling. I'm calling because I just finished a book by VJ Smith titled: The Richest Man in Town." He then said, "Mac, you've got to read this book. I guarantee you that you're not going to like it...you're going to love it.".
Now, I'd be lying if I told you that this was the first time a customer had called with what they thought was a great book. And truthfully, they aren't always so great! But there was something about this conversation that told me...this could be different. Pat's enthusiasm was unwavering and when we hung up, I couldn't get it out of my head. | | | A few days later I purchased a copy of the book. I shut my office door and read it, non-stop. When I finished I just sat there with tears running down my cheeks. Pat "nailed it"...I didn't like it, I loved it!.
I then picked up the phone to call the author, VJ Smith. If nothing else, I just wanted to thank him for writing a book that made a positive difference in the world. And the rest, as they say....is history! He was a fan of ours and said that he loved our products. VJ, who had self-published the book then said, "You're not going to believe this, Mac, but just recently, I told my wife that someday I'd like to partner with a company like yours who could take my book to the rest of the world.".
I believe that some things are meant to be. The Richest Man in Town is a wonderful book. It's a true story that will grab your heart and not let go! All I can say is that I'm honored to make it a part of our "family" of inspirational gift books..
I'd like to share VJ Smith's brief introduction to one of my all time favorite books The Richest Man in Town. | From The Richest Man in Town by V.J. Smith | I'm so glad I found you.
My friend, Aaron "Marty" Martinson, wrote those words in a note to me. On the pages that follow, you will discover that he didn't find me. I found him. And, thanks to Marty, I remembered a few things about life that I hadn't really thought about for a long time..
For years I had grand visions of writing a book about a leader who changed the course of history. I filled my personal library with biographies of presidents and statesmen. I wanted to understand what made their lives great - and what might be missing from mine..
In looking for answers I turned to books written by people who are successful in business and industry. For a while I searched for excellence, then I compared my habits to those of highly effective people. Like millions of people, I thought success equaled happiness..
The book I've written, though, is about a simple man who ran a cash register. He worked hard and was good to people. That, in turn, made him happy..
Can it be so simple? So free of complications? Marty thought so. He showed me how to be a better person, not one wealthier or more successful or more powerful..
He changed my life - forever. | | | | Today, I'm pleased to offer The Richest Man in Town for only $10. Our regular price is $19.95, a 50% savings. For more information, to look inside this great book or to view the 3 minute inspirational movie, just click here. .
