About the Author

Mike Veeck is a nationally renowned speaker, entrepreneur, college professor, marketing, promotions and advertising expert as well as an owner of six successful minor league baseball teams. His name is synonymous with fun and creativity and he continues to blaze new trails each year. Who else would train a pig to deliver baseballs to the umpire, hire mimes to perform instant replays or lock fans out of the stadium to set an all-time attendance record for fewest people at a game? This business philosophy has garnered national attention, with Mike being featured on NBC Nightly News, 60 Minutes, HBO Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, ESPN Sports Center, The Late Show with David Letterman and many other national media outlets. With his teams practicing all this fun and passion in the workplace, providing great customer care, exceeding aggressive sales goals and gaining national attention for his creative promotions and partnerships, Mike decided to highlight his coworkers and tell these stories in his book – Fun Is Good! Mike is a highly sought after speaker, allowing him the privilege of working with many companies each year, including 3M, The NBA, Deluxe Corporation, General Mills and NASCAR, to name just a few. Mike and his wife, Libby, reside in Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina. He is the father or two children, William “Night Train” and Rebecca.


Just on the strength and uniqueness of his ideas, Allen Fahden has gotten the attention of people in groups of up to 50 million. His One-Book Book Store, ReadDundant, appeared in People Magazine, on ABC News, the BBC, National Public Radio and in major city newspapers. The store featured only Fahden’s book in 13 different departments. His promotion for the Portland Beavers, during the Enron scandal (Arthur Andersen Appreciation Night) got him on CNN and ESPN. “It costs $5 to get into the ball game, but we give you a receipt for $10 for tax purposes.” Fahden has worked with clients Paul McCartney on his food venture and Bill Murray and Mike Veeck on their professional baseball teams. As a speaker he appeared for 20 of the top 100 companies in the world, ranging from Amazon.com to Coca- Cola, GE and Disney. Shell Oil reported that using Allen’s techniques saved them a million dollars per team. Allen’s systems gave Qwest a 38% sales increase and division sales grew from $20 million to $60 million over the next two years.
