Chapter One: You have the power to change stuff by Daniel Flynn
5.0
Anyone in business and the not-for-profit sector, as well as anyone interested in storytelling, should know what [a:Daniel Flynn|3060790|Daniel Flynn|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] and the Thankyou team are doing.
Thankyou is a social enterprise based in Melbourne. They are not like any other social enterprise you have come across.
They are the definition of disruptors. And unlike many about which that term is used, this team has a consistent track record. They are challenging the way things have always been done in multiple industries at the same: publishing; food, beverage and grocery; international development; transport and logistics; and marketing and advertising.
Take publishing, for example.
At a time when traditional publishing and profits from books (for both author and publisher alike) are less assured than ever, they had the vision (and the temerity) to publish a book with no recommended retail price (an industry first) and with a side orientation (a rarity). Customers simply walk to to the counter and tell the sales assistant what they are willing to pay.
Thankyou is a story of what can be done. Read it, and do you part.
And here is to publishing Chapter Two.
