Why am I talking about Selling?
Since we make emotional decisions 3000 times faster than rational decisions, it is important that what you are
“selling” is emotionally anchored
A powerful Message
In 50 years, when they look back at this moment, they will talk about the war against terror, they will talk about the Internet, and they will talk about what we did or didn't do in Africa, about this continent bursting into flames.
It is the most extraordinary thing to watch people dying three in a bed, two on top and one underneath, as I have seen in Malawi. It's an astonishing thing and it is an avoidable catastrophe. BONO
Powerful Introductions
When you clearly communicate who you are, and what you do, people are in a much better position to assist you in your networking efforts. They are more likely to remember you when the opportunity for them to help you shows up.
Who you are
What you do
Put them in better position to help you
They will remember you when opportunity comes
Your Message Clarity
Grant G. Gard says, "If it's fuzzy in the pulpit, it's cloudy in the pew!"
Learning to speak clearly teaches us to say good-bye to confusion. Crystal clear communication allows us to make the connections that enable ideas to flourish and positive actions to occur.
