Hot Off the Press: Customer Experience Secrets and Tips Revealed in New Business Book "720 Haircuts - Creating Customer Loyalty That Lasts a Lifetime"

Available Now via Amazon, Customer Experience Guru Gary Magenta Shares Unfiltered Insight, Humor and Real-World Revelations to Help Brands Conquer the CX Challenge


SYLVANIA, OH--(Marketwired - June 15, 2016) - Root Inc. today announced the availability of a new type of business book, 720 Haircuts - Creating Customer Loyalty that Lasts a Lifetime, on Amazon. Written by its customer experience (CX) expert Gary Magenta, 720 Haircuts forgoes traditional business jargon and complex formulas for storytelling and practical methods that will help leaders establish and deliver strong, differentiated customer experiences.

Magenta grew up in the retail and hospitality industries, and has spent his career helping leaders build their business by creating emotional connections with buyers. In 720 Haircuts, Magenta shares his learnings and reveals a proven, simple formula for building customers for life.

"720 Haircuts features the true story of my Uncle Mel who has driven almost 100 miles roundtrip to the same barbershop every month for six decades to have his hair cut. Talk about customer loyalty!" said Gary Magenta. "My roots in customer experience run deep. My family owned a small business; I got my first job there at an early age and a second job as a restaurant server afterwards. These experiences laid a strong foundation and unique viewpoint on how to make people feel like valued customers, along with the nuances of bad, good and great customer experiences."

This book empowers business leaders -- whether helming an international empire, managing a 30-person team, or striving to be the most successful mom-and-pop shop on the block -- to develop a loyal base of customers nurtured by authentic, emotional connections.

Added Magenta, "My goal with 720 Haircuts was to go beyond the hundreds of other customer service books and create a plain-speak, no-nonsense resource focused on the benefits of forging a strong emotional connection between a business and its customer."
