Having recently taught a number of customer service workshops, I thought it would be fun to run a month-long contest to see who can come up with the best ideas for stopping burnout and improving customer service. We all know what we’re supposed to do, but the real challenge is, can you can come with an idea that you yourself would try? One that might motivate others? The reward is a free copy of one of my books (covers shown below).

To give you a heads start, let’s break this down into four categories:

• Exercise
• Nutrition
• Mind health
• Rewards.

I don’t want to win my own contest, so be brave, send your ideas in, and if you’re prefer to do so in private (as I’ll publish the blog comments), you can email your ideas to me at jb@jeanbaur.com. The winner will have his or her suggestion published and will receive a free book. Get thinking! The deadline is the end of February.
