In place of its annual Christmas card, The AAM Group tried something a little different this year: a six-page, full-color booklet called “10 Tips on Excellence.” As told by the AAM Elf, the Christmas-themed book shares essential customer-pleasing, business-building tips such as “Focus on creating a great experience,” “Find out what people need—and deliver it,” “Don’t let a closed door discourage you,” “Always be on time,” “Take pride in your work” and others.

Each tip is accompanied by a piece of original art commissioned just for the project. Conceived by AAM President Tim Odom as a way to offer practical, memorable value to business owners beyond the traditional Christmas card, the book shares nuggets of wisdom wrapped in a warm, fun, and positive package — just like ol’ Saint Nick in his workshop.
