Ruhlin started his career early, working as a telemarketer in the late nineties. At his sales job, he quickly realized that the key to success was making people feel special and appreciated. Thus, he learned the importance of building relationships from an early age. This proved to be a foundation for his eventual success, whether it be in his corporate sales career or his subsequent entrepreneurial ventures.

Ruhlin’s first book, “Giftology,” was released in 2015, followed by the subsequent success of “The Art of the Relationship.” In “Giftology,” Ruhlin outlines how to cultivate meaningful, lasting relationships with clients, colleagues, and customers. The book truly emphasizes the importance of appreciation, going beyond conventional gift-giving to explain how to show people that they really matter. This involves using tangible gift-giving to express appreciation, as well as non-tangible, yet equally meaningful, actions and words.

In 2018, Ruhlin released “Kiss, Bow, or Shake Hands?," which detailed the importance of adapting to cultural nuances and cross-cultural communication. The book outlines the intricate nuances of cultural behavior, corporate etiquette, and the importance of comprehending one’s own cultural and social backgrounds. Ruhlin further explains how to bridge the gap between cultures in order to foster successful business relationships.

Ruhlin has spoken at many events, including TEDx and the World Investor Summit, which showcases the success that has come with his career. He has worked for companies such as Microsoft and HP, and currently consults for multiple firms, making sure to bring his signature style of relationship-building to the table.

Ruhlin is currently working on his fourth book, “Giftology 2.0,” which is expected to be released later this year. Throughout all of his work, Ruhlin emphasizes the importance of relationships and understanding the needs of those around you. His books are filled with effective strategies for creating trust and understanding in our lives, while ultimately helping to build a better world.
