There’s an old saying “ you have two ears, and one mouth use them in proportion.” Practice an old sales technique called FORD.

Family

Occupation

Recreation

Dreams.

If you start asking questions about someone’s family, eventually, the conversation will turn to their job and what they like to do for fun and they will inevitably start talking about their goals and desires.

Thanks Rickey

‘God gave you two ears, and one mouth, for a reason’ was literally one of my father’s top three sayings, growing up!!!

‘You lay down with dogs, you get fleas’ & ‘trust, but verify’ (I was 30+ when I learned it was a Reagan original) being the other two.

And I run our companies’ sales department.

Set up your wallet, Keith. Wanna zap
