Janice Jokkel can pivot. When she needed a different way to earn a living, she found the Family Entertainment Center business was just the ticket. Starting small, she grew her business by focussing on the details of training and culture. During our conversation, we get to hear her story and also touch on the importance of core values, why e-learning is not the panacea we think it is, and the two things people will generally not skimp on.

This episode is brought to you by BackLooper.  Have you ever gotten a negative review online?  Better yet, have you ever gotten a negative review online that you actually found to be useful?  Wouldn't you have preferred that that guest contacted you directly?  Every organization has its flaws, and you shouldn't be learning about yours through social media.  BackLooper was created to solve this problem directly, by collecting better feedback data from more guests, especially compared to online review sites and many other feedback collection methods.  By using BackLooper's intuitive reporting, you can better understand what your guests are saying in masses, and make quick decisions from the results.  To learn how you can substantially increase the amount feedback you receive from your guests, and get started with a no-risk plan, visit www.amusementadvantage.com/backlooper, and contact Josh directly at josh@amusementadvantage.com​.  It's time to spend less time wondering what your guests are thinking, and more time connecting with them on a personal level.
