Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition textured gold boards, forest green spine, and gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication; Acknowledgments; Introduction; and A History of Leigh Perkins at Orvis: A Parody of the Time Line of the History of Orvis Since it was Acquired by Leigh, Created in Honor of His Retirement. Illustrated with a section of black-and-white photographic plates. A small remainder mark at the lower page edge. "A marvelous book . Anyone who has ever owned an Orvis fly rod (and even those who haven't) should be fascinated by this picture of how a down-to-earth guy who loves fishing and hunting built one of the most successful businesses of our time." -- John G. Smale, retired Chairman of the Procter and Gamble Company and General Motors. "A Sportsman's Life is the remarkable story of a man whose passion for the outdoors has been surpassed only by his passion for life itself. An avid fly fisherman, hunter, and conservationist, Leigh Perkins combined his love of the outdoors with exceptional business skills . Few have done so well in business -- and even fewer can say they enjoyed it as much." -- William E. Simon, former Secretary of the Treasury. "Leigh Perkins has combined a life of hunting and fishing with a notable career as CEO of Orvis. How he did this is a remarkable tale." -- Jimmy Carter. "A Sportsman's Life is inspirational reading . It is the story of one of the greatest characters ever in the sport of fishing and one of the greatest conservationists of our time." -- John Morris, Principal Owner and CEO, Bass Pro Shops. "The best career advice for anyone is to do what you love. There is no better example than Leigh Perkins. This is a clever, poignant, and funny story of how Leigh Perkins go rich by doing what he loved -- hinting and fishing -- and by helping others to enjoy hunting and fishing. It is also the story of how his love for the outdoors made him one of America's leading conservationists . What a life!" -- John Flicker, President, National Audubon Society. "A Different Kind of Business Book, by a Different Kind of Businessman. When Leigh Perkins bought the Orvis Company in 1965, the fly-fishing and bird-hunting outfitter was a sleepy business with annual sales that had leveled off at $500,000. But Orvis was a treasured brand that had pioneered the mail-order business more than one hundred years before, and Perkins believed he could make it grow. Over the next thirty years Perkins built Orvis's annual sales to $100 million by revolutionizing the catalog retail industry and reshaping the company's tradition-bound culture. He achieved this by blending his love of nature with his business acumen and bringing the common-sense approach he learned in the streams and on his hunts to his board-room decision making. The basic principles he used to run his business include: The Customer Is Always Right . Even When You Know Damned Well He's Wrong: Throughout his career with Orvis, Perkins put superior customer service at the top of his golas -- even personally manning the phone lines at the height of the holiday season each year to keep in touch with his customers. Product Excellence: Perkins made sure that everything Orvis sold was of the highest quality -- even if that meant he had to fight the U.S. government to get access to embargoed Chinese bamboo for fishing rods. He constantly looked for ways to improve products and for new inventions that his customers would want, such as the Orvis zinger, a tool for anglers that he was inspired to invent one day at lunch. Empower Your Employees: Perkins made sure that each employee of Orvis could solve any customer's problem without needing to involve a manager. He also encouraged his employees to let him know how Orvis could improve the company or its products -- and rewarded them by having a policy of promoting from within. ." - excerpt from jacket flaps.
