First Impressions
| |
| Picking up from my recent posting We'll meet again... I thought it would be worth looking at how First Impressions can impact our opinions of other people and their opinions of us. In turn first impressions can affect the desire to work together or not. Have you ever regretted a time when you didn’t make a favourable first impression? Did you wish you could have your time over again to make a more positive impression? I am sure you are not alone. We can all think of a time when we messed up. As the old saying goes: ‘You don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression’. |

The Four Agreements at Work: An Inside Job
| |
|
In his book The Four Agreements, Don Miguel Ruiz distills the essence of Toltec wisdom into four principles for living a life of value:
1. Be impeccable with your word.
2. Don’t take anything personally.
3. Don’t make assumptions.
4. Always do your best.
How elegantly simple and, as some might say, a “no brainer!” But simple wisdom isn’t common practice. While most of us believe we are impeccable with our word, we know others who are not. And most likely, others, from time to time, consider us far less than impeccable. |

How to Be Different in a Homogeneous Business World
| |
| It's hard, isn't it? Making your service business stand out from the rest is a challenging task. When it comes down to it, every realtor helps people buy or sell property. That's it.

Every salesperson offers a product that is strikingly similar to the competition's offering. What do you need to do to stand out? |

The Question of Trust -- How much business is done without it? None!
| |
| Before any business activity will commence, there must be an acceptable level of Trust in the outcome.
No Trust means no progress -- No exceptions!
Trust is dissected into two distinct components -- Character and Competence.
People in all facets of life assess the trustworthiness of themselves , and the business they represent, by their intentions, but they assess the trustworthiness of others by their actions, and even more harshly, by their results.
All businesses need to refine their ability to appropriately communicate the results they have achieved for all stakeholders. It is vital they are seen to take responsibility for their results -- not their intentions, and not just their actions.
Taking responsibility for results will build trust with stakeholders -- even if the results were not what was planned or hoped for.

| |
| From time to time, I enjoy engaging practiced salespeople and sales managers in conversation about selling on a deeper level. One such conversation that happened this week centered around the question, “what is the most valuable quality salespeople can bring to the table?” Answers ranged from “product knowledge” to “likeability” to “good communication,” and on into “expert questioning” before one of the salespeople hit the correct answer – the answer that trumps all of the above.
That answer is trustworthiness. |
