Publisher's summary

If you accidentally try to order the same song twice from iTunes, you’ll be warned that you already own it. Not because it would be illegal or unethical for Apple to profit from your forgetfulness. There’s a clear business reason: the leaders of iTunes realize there’s no better way to make you trust them than to be totally honest when you least expect it.

In the age of the Web, smartphones, and social networks, every action an organization takes can be exposed and critiqued in real time. Nothing is local or secret anymore. If you treat one customer unfairly, produce one shoddy product, or try to gouge one price, the whole world may find out in hours, if not minutes. The users of Twitter, Yelp, Epinions, and similar outlets show little mercy for bad behavior. The bar for trust­worthiness is higher than ever and continuing to rise.

Don Peppers and Martha Rogers argue that the only sane response to these rising levels of transpar­ency is to protect the interests of customers proac­tively, before they have a chance to spread negative buzz - even if that requires spending extra money in the short run to preserve your reputation and cus­tomer relationships in the long run.

The payoff of gen­erating extreme trust will be worth it. The companies that Peppers and Rogers call "trustable" remember what they learn from each inter­action, and they use these insights to create better and better customer experiences. They focus on win­ning the long-term battle for trust and loyalty, even if the dollar value of that trust is hard to quantify.

With a wealth of fascinating research as well as practical applications, this book will show you how to earn - and keep - the extreme trust of everyone your company interacts with.

Critic reviews

"Trust is the new black. We all rely on those we trust, and that’s particularly true when it comes to business. Extreme Trust talks about how trust is increasingly critical in business, and how trustworthiness, or its absence, has become increasingly visible. It discusses what trustworthy behavior means in business, and how to change corporate culture to make it more genuinely trustable." (Craig Newmark, founder of craigslist.com)

Must listen

I would highly recommend this book to mid and senior level executives. They often are so disconnected from the customer experience and this gives them ways to get data and open their eyes and turnaround their business.
