Your Biz: Networking Mistake #4 - must read!

4. Be prepared to speak clearly and concisely about what you do!

People's attention span is short and they get turned off quite easily by those who ramble. You need to be prepared to speak clearly & concisely about what you do.
Make sure the first words you speak are clear and positively phrased.
Saying 'well. . . it's hard to explain' leaves the listener disenchanted with you and your business. No one has patience to listen to negative chatter like that.

Determine in advance of your networking meeting what you can say about what you do and for whom in as few words as possible that are memorable, concise and appealing.

Special note: Using the words "I'll try" in business ventures will be a deal breaker if you're dealing with series professional business people. Their ears are trained to weed out the amateurs from the serious business players.

Why? "Trying" is an excuse to 'fail' - you either will or you won't.

Catch yourself next time and stop saying "I'll try" ~ it's sooo ugly to hear over and over again.

To illustrate how ugly...imagine that you call me to buy a box of pens and I respond like this:

• I'll try to make you I am writing your order down correctly and...
• I'll try to have your order ready on time and...
• I'll try to call the manufacturer and see if they have the color you requested and ...
• I'll try to make sure the package can be shipped on time and ...
• I'll try to be here when UPS arrives and ...
• I'll try to call you when your package arrives...

Well. . . How does all this 'trying' make you feel? Yuk! There is absolutly NO confidence in 'trying' zip!
