About the book:
Currently worth more than $4.2 billion, Bruce Halle, the founder of the nation’s largest independent tire chain, was unemployed and nearly $20,000 in debt when he started with just six tires and no plan. But Halle transformed his first small store in Ann Arbor into Discount Tire, now with over 800 stores across the country—and it wasn’t magic that got him there.
Michael says that not only can Halle’s success be duplicated, but his story should actually serve as a basis for today’s young grads facing the cold reality of unemployment. Michael will explain Halle’s winning strategies to wealth and how anyone today can apply them too, such as:
1. Building a business around a service rather than a product.
2. Making sure customer service REALLY is the most important factor.
3. Doing one thing better than anyone else.
4. Building an employee-centric management style that promotes from within, “hitting the reset button” for employee mistakes, and paying success forward.
5. Expanding your business at a smart, patient pace.
These steps allowed Discount Tire to increase its revenue every single year since its inception in 1960, and are the reason that the chain has never once had layoffs. This is just the kind of straight forward wisdom young entrepreneurs need today.
