Description
A brand-new episode of The BedBuzz is live and we’re having a blast talking about the books that built us: the ones that shaped the way we lead, sell, think, and live.
A few highlights from the show:
- “Read 10 pages a day.” Simple challenge, big impact — especially during downtime in the store.
- Sam Walton’s Made in America — merchandising obsession, humility, and the power of “Satisfaction Guaranteed.”
- Steve Rigby’s SMILE — our required read for new sales associates: a people-first philosophy that creates extraordinary sales.
- Gratitude that changes everything: 365 Thank Yous — one note a day can change your mindset and open doors.
- Culture + energy wins: The Fred Factor, Fish!, and Red Shoes Living — bring the vibe, make people feel seen, and watch what happens.
- Habits over hype: Atomic Habits — get 1% better every day with systems that actually stick.
- Jimmy’s all-time favorite: The One Minute Manager — fast, simple, and a leadership game-changer.
- Harry’s “if you’re in sales, you’ve gotta read it” pick: The Greatest Salesman in the World — a book that changed his life at 23.
We wrap with a simple takeaway: Books build people. People build businesses. Pick one book, read 10 pages a day, and put it to work.
