Interviewing a mystery shopper - "Just give 'em the pickle!"
Feb 06, 2023 Season 1 Episode 2
Les Tsui

This week, we talk about what it means to make the guest experience a happy one. Sometimes you need to give the guest an extra pickle with their lunch order... or maybe even a free refill of a Coke.

Les references the term "Give 'em the pickle!" A term coined by Bob Ferrell (who started Ferrell's franchise.)  Les spent many birthdays at Ferrell's in Hawaii growing up. Les also gets a first-hand account of how this lesson in guest service could have been applied in an encounter that our good friend Sarah experienced.  

Greg (Les' husband and partner)interviews Sarah and then asks for Les' reactions to the situation Sarah endures at a local Crêpe restaurant.
