client success stories
Great leaders know they need an outside, objective opinion and look to Storyminers to offer them a new, different, or better outcome than they might get on their own. They want expertise, fresh thinking, and to gain advantage from others’ experience. They want results.

RETAIL DESIGN INSTITUTE
As President of RDI, I have to elevate our members’ competitiveness and provide for our sponsors’ needs. It’s always a tricky balance. Mike let me showcase the future for members and set up sales opportunities for our sponsors. At the same time!

COO
PIEDMONT ATLANTA HOSPITAL
We were growing quickly, yet so was our competition. Mike facilitated our board to lead us to the idea that an improved patient experience elective surgery areas could help us improve the experience in other service areas. Could we get one design that delivered both? Yes!

CEO
Jim Ellis Automotive Group
I lead a multi-brand, 20+ location Atlanta-based, family-owned auto dealership founded by my father. I brought Storyminers in for the annual sales meeting. Not only did I get a keynote, I also got insights from undercover shopping, hands-on training with my sales team, and a new perspective we can use to up our customer promise. Now, that’s a great deal!

Executive Director of Events
Chain Store Age
Raising the bar on our own retail executive events to thrill attendees gets harder every year. Putting Customer Experience on stage gave all the attendees and sponsors a way to see how they stop competing with each other and start doing more for their customers. The customer experience way Mike introduced has been almost unanimously adopted by the retail industry.

Evan Toporek
CEO
Hanes/Alternative Apparel
The first time we hired Storyminers was because their approach was tailored just for us. I’m glad we did! Mike and the Storyminers team were there at a critical point in our growth as we began the transformation from being a local t-shirt company into a national brand. Thanks in part to Storyminers’ contribution, we gained a 250% sales increase and earned a $60 million exit.
