SHOW NOTES

In this week’s episode I’m speaking about the one single action could dramatically convert strangers into potential clients.

I'll explain why ‘small talk’ is not the conversation in its self and why it's the opener for a  better conversation.

We will explore the best way to discover that interesting stuff from your conversation by “breaking the script.” and changing the social norm. I'll take you through the sequence of why Pre-framing,  using Opening statements are critical, the 3 levels of listening and exploratory questions will enable you to open the door in a way that gives you the opportunity to convert strangers into potential clients.

When you start a good conversation with a stranger, it’s like you’re giving them an uncommon gift.  And more often than not, they want to give you something in return, it could be advice, a gift or future business. You never know until you actually strike up  the courage to have that conversation through 20 seconds of  insane, embarrassing bravery.  And learn the simple exercise of ‘warm ups’ to get you to build your confidence for talking to strangers.

I hope that you manage to get some real value and insight from this week’s show.
