Book Synopsis
The Savannah Bananas should not exist.
You can't name any of their players. They play in a 1920s-era ballpark with no ads or billboards. They play in kilts, stilts, and stilettos. They even have an all-grandma dance team: the Banana Nanas.
Everything the Bananas do is unconventional. It shouldn't work.
And yet they sell out every game, have a waitlist in the thousands, ship merchandise around the globe, and entertain millions of followers on social media.
ESPN calls the Bananas "the greatest show in baseball."
How is this even possible?
Two words: Fans First.
Packed with behind-the-peel stories, hard-earned lessons, and a few other surprises, Fans First teaches you how to stand out in your marketplace, drive explosive growth, and inspire fanatical loyalty.
If this all sounds bananas, that's the point. Normal leaders read normal books and get normal results. But if you're ready to change the game, break the rules, and create your own unforgettable team, then it's time to go Fans First.
