How to Talk to People
Copyright 2005 Ron LeBlanc
One of the greatest things about the current home based business
industry is that people from all walks of life are having
success with it. Isn't it nice that you don't have to go to
medical school or get a Harvard MBA to be able to retire early
and be financially free.
I am convinced that there would be lots more people involved if
they only knew that it wasn't that hard to do. One of the
biggest fears most no-sales and marketing people have is talking
to people, and specifically selling. Go ahead and admit it - you
don't have the skills that car salesmen have - well that's
excellent! That type of thing doesn't work well in other
industries and even car salesmen are becoming a thing of the
past as the internet brokers and eBay grow in popularity.
Most home based businesses have a system in place for you. I can
assure you that when people start these companies they don't
neglect to think long and hard about how to make doing their
business easier for people who get started. They have you in
mind.
Always look for a company that has lots of training on how to
talk to people and minimizes the amount of presenting that you
have to do. Some have it so you bring a more experienced person
with you. Some have online presentations and some have live
conference call presentations.
Let's assume that you really don't need to do the selling - it's
done for you by the company leadership. You will have to bring
people into that system, so you will have to talk to people!
Those companies that rely on a completely "automated" system
have a hard time getting people to give money to a website,
hoping it's not in Russia or Turkey.
So how do you talk to people? You've probably heard the
numbers
before that only about 5% of how you communicate is by the words
you use. The other 95% is split between body language and tone.
If you are not meeting someone in person, then tone is even more
critical!
A better way to say tone would be energy or vibe. Have you ever
talked to someone who sounded like they just got out of bed or
their dog just got run over? I don't talk with people like that
for long because unless I find out there was some reason for
their low energy, I just don't want to pursue it.
You have to be in the right vibe as well. Your best bet is to
have a relaxed confidence. No matter what is going on in your
life, you must never sound needy. When they say that they work
until 3AM and you bend over backwards and offer to call them
when they come home, why would they want to work with you?
Your best bet is that of relaxed confidence. You know what your
goals are and you know where you're going. If they want to get
on board fine - if they don't - hey, you'll find lots of others.
Verbally wrapping your arms around their leg as they try and
walk away would be the opposite. Even if you have no real
results yet, you should at least be excited about the
opportunity that you have your hands on and transmit that to
people you talk to. That kind of vibe is picked up by people you
meet and will go much further at making you attractive to people
than a desperate one.
