Episode description
Ever notice how a wobbly shopping cart can ruin your entire store experience? In this episode, I reveal how my contrasting shopping experiences—battling a squeaky cart versus gliding one with ease—perfectly illustrate a powerful business principle.

Consider how small fixes to your "wobbly wheels" can transform your client experience and dramatically increase retention, referrals, and revenue. Is your business a frustrating cart or a pleasant glide?
