"[The Fred Factor] delivers a potent motivational message that will super-charge your attitude toward work and life. . . . You will never view yourself, your value to others, and your importance in the world in the same way again."--John Maxwell, from the foreword
Meet Fred. No average USPS carrier, Fred seized the chance to find meaning in the mundane and endeavored to make his customers smile every day. After moving to Denver, Speaker Hall of Fame member Mark Sanborn got to know this kindhearted man and realized that Fred's outlook on life can be distilled into four basic principles that anyone can use to bring fresh energy and creativity to our work and life:
- Everyone makes a difference
- Success is built on relationships
- You must continually create value for others, and it doesn't have to cost a penny
- You can reinvent yourself regularly
In this updated edition, Sanborn speaks to the seismic changes that have transformed the world of work in recent years--with employees increasingly hungry for purpose in their jobs--and outlines the book's fresh applications.
Perfect for graduates, community leaders, or anyone looking to bring more kindness into the world, The Fred Factor is an inspiring guide to becoming your best self.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Your Online Bookstore, Houston, Texas, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
Shipping terms
Orders usually ship same or next business day. If you place an expedited order for a heavy or over-sized book, we may contact you to request that you cover the extra shipping cost.
