May 26th, 2008 by Lara Feltin
Day 2:
Thursday, July 10
Presenter:
Howard Howell
Learn secrets of bragging shamelessly but professionally - so you build trust and relationships from your very first meeting.
How come so many indies deliver services so brilliantly but have trouble communicating what they do?
Would you like to learn the secrets of bragging shamelessly (without sounding obnoxious, conceited, or sales-y)?
In this workshop we will share:
- 1. The single most effective thing you can do when you meet someone for the very first time.
- 2. The one action guaranteed to destroy your potential business relationship.
- 3. How to take the first step to building trust before you leave a meeting.
- 4. And a whole lot more…. Including online bragging tips if we have time
Our first 20 minutes or so will allow you to practice your “before” speech through informal networking. After some expert training, you are invited to volunteer to practice your new brag, with feedback from the group.
