How does the Anonymous Tagging Program work?

 Harry Paul and I have written a new book called, Instant Turnaround! Getting People Excited About Coming to Work and Working Hard. This book will show any Bad Boss what they need to do in order to become a Great Boss.  To Tag your Bad Boss, all you have to do is visit our BossTrenz website (click here to go), and purchasing a copy of Instant Turnaround! The book will be anonymously sent to the Bad Boss of your choice.  To make sure your boss understands why he or she is receiving it, the book comes with a special yellow tag that says, “Bad Boss Tag.  You’ve just been tagged as a Bad Boss by someone you know.  You need to read this book and make some changes.” (pictured below)

 How do I purchase the book and how much does it cost?
Simply go to the BossTrenz.com website and follow the instructions on how to purchase the book anonymously. It’s simple.  The book is available for $29.99.  A small price to pay for such a risk-free way to inflict some real pain on your Bad Boss.

A number of Bad Bosses have already been Tagged.  One Bad Boss who was Tagged has already stepped down from his managerial position and has accepted a non-supervisory position where he is much happier.  In his old department everyone is relieved and extremely happy.  One of the Bad Boss’s former employees remarked on the day after the Bad Boss stepped down, ”I can’t believe it !?!  Things  already are different-I’ve actually heard laughter around the department for the first time in ages.”  Another employee remarked, “I am so-o-o-o-o happy!”

If you know of a Bad Boss that you’d like to see Tagged, go to www.bosstrenz.com.
