The dark days of winter are upon us. Though we’ve passed the Winter Solstice (which means the days are technically getting longer) it’s still far too cold and far too dark for our liking. The limited sun can make anyone blue, a feeling only exasperated by the after-Christmas and after-after Christmas sales. If your team is in a rut because of low sales and poor weather, don’t just look forward through the calendar and wish for spring. Take a proactive approach and hire a motivational speaker.

Whether you operate a product- or service-based company, you need to understand who your customers are in order to be successful. We’re not talking about knowing each individual customer on a first-name basis (although that is a nice touch); we, like thousands of business experts before us, suggest a less individual approach. Rather than the distinct name of each customer, you should have an understanding of what features make up your average shopper.

Take a look at Fortune’s list of the 100 Best Companies to Work For, and you’ll see a long, disparate collection of businesses that span several industries. In the top ten placements alone, there are tech companies, financial and insurance services, a grocery store, a real estate investment trust, and a consulting firm. Though their focuses of expertise vary wildly, they all share one thing in common: their respective employees enjoy a superior sense of job satisfaction. It’s no coincidence that those enterprises with the happiest employees are also known for their supportive corporate cultures.
