Delivering Happiness Bus Tour
Published in Business, Cool Stuff, Design by Wünderwoman / 0 Comments
What do you do when you’ve written a book that champions a momentum shift?
You get a bus, load it up with Red Bull and head across the United States!
That’s what Tony Hsieh and his “Happy Bus Team” is doing. He is promoting his New York Times #1 Best Seller: Delivering Happiness: The Path to Profits, Passion and Purpose. This killer book changes our perceptions of what business is and how it should operate.
There are many companies who follow this belief system on a small scale, but none have truly followed through with as much gusto (and success) as Zappos has. Tony is a Fuelhaus favorite because he makes his brand a central part of the business each and every day.
The book is a must read for anyone interested in creating a purposeful life. It takes you through the journey of Tony and his amazing team of dedicated employees as they “go for broke” and make it…then it breaks down the concept of Delivering Happiness in business and life.
My favorite part of this book is the basic concept that happiness and profits aren’t opposing forces. You can have a team of employees working together with their CEO to create a strong brand from the inside out. It cements the concept that Fuelhaus believes in about brand building: If it’s not authentic on the inside, a brand will fail on the outside.
Fuelhaus isn’t the only convert… serious people are listening, too. NPR’s Marketplace just did an interview of Tony to learn more about the magic of Zappos, their stellar customer service and thriving employee culture. You can listen to the MarketPlace Interview (or read it) here!
Now…back to the bus…
From now until November 22nd, Tony and his “Happiness Crew” are touring the country trying to start and spread the happiness movement. They are stopping at locations all along the route to spread happiness, inspiration and information on a movement we hope will change perceptions about our purpose. It’s a tall order, but it starts with just one smile. 
Check out the Tour Map on the website and stop buy and see them when they are in your neighborhood.
Fuelhaus designed web design for the Delivering Happiness Bus Tour and is currently redesigning the website for the book. We’re not only believers…we’re getting a rare chance to help ignite the movement as well! Come back soon and see how we do it!
