How to keep people coming back to your business, and what could be making them leave for good. Dodge gets into what it really takes to make people return, again and again, whether you're running a festival, a podcast, or a local restaurant. Experience beats everything, the night he realised cold pints and a warm welcome matter more than the headline act, why standards are the bar you set for yourself, and why in a world full of AI and fake everything, keeping it real is your biggest edge. Why showing up for independent founders, even with a tag or a good review, costs you nothing but means everything.
