Thoughts on His Best-Selling Book

“this book will become a “must read” for my management team, and, by having this timely refresher, we will “live it”

Hal Turner, CEO, Pareteum

“Ping-Pong is not a Strategy is the book for the owners and managers on Main Street–where the rubber meets the road. Matt has taken the high-level big-company concepts I was taught in business school and applied them to the types of circumstances a small business owner or budding entrepreneur is more likely to encounter.”

Trevor Crandall, CFO

“This book gets to the heart of what really matters in a corporate culture–trust and relationships (among others). The ripple effect that happens when one company builds a thriving, supportive culture is enormous. Read this book and refer back to it over time to step up your company’s culture on every front.”

Rosemary O’Neill, CEO, Narrative

I have worked with guHRoo (formerly ERG) for almost 3 years and they have been very responsive as well as diligent in taking care of our payroll and HR needs. I would highly recommend them!
Dr. Travis Mize, Sunset Periodontics
The team are responsive and engaged as the payroll and HR support team for our company.
Ken Tamsin, CEO, Southern Community Services
I have trusted guHRoo (formerly ERG) with my business for over 3 plus years and have been very pleased. Our previous big company had issue after issue that they would then charge us to fix their problems. They are always quick to respond, willing to get the job done right how you want it and as quickly as possible. We were lucky to find guHRoo (formerly ERG)!
