Having Clients Listening To You In AWE And If Not, An Alternative

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty 0575737

Cat MusicI am a big believer in simplicity, and any time I can throw together an acronym to help me remember something, well there I go. What we want is

Having Clients Listening To You In AWE And If Not, An Alternative.

Communication skills are critical to GREAT relationship development to have clear understanding by everyone. Use the acronym AWE to get good at this.

A- Attention. Eye contact, a statement they pay attention to with interest, raise your voice, vary its pitch.

W- Wavelength. Mirror the personality type of your listener. Get on their wavelength. TUNE INTO THEIR TUNE.

E- Echo. Repeat back to them what they said to you.

Obama Hypnosis

 

The Alternative if this doesn't work??

 

        HYPNOSIS!!!!

Gary, you are an absolute riot. I love your sense of humor. And I'd like to return the favor by giving you a link to a You Tube video my husband made me watch yesterday. It's pretty amusing as well. Hint: It's got a cat in it.

Gary:  If you haven't watched Elizabeth's video yet, you must.  Who says cats are afraid of water?  As for your post, good lesson.  Not sure what you're political statement here is, but the Presdient telling kids to work hard and stay in school doesn't seem nefarious to me at all.
