In 30 seconds you can build a relationship on the phone. Positive Talk Radio guest Richard Blank Cos

Oh, exactly. Well at the, at the, at its core. Sure. This is all about relationships has to be, and it is amazing to me. How, in 30 seconds you can build a relationship or begin a relationship with somebody to keep them on the phone. Cuz that, that, how do you teach them? How do you teach your, your, your folks?

To start building that relationship right away. That is why you have the best podcast. You literally are asking me some of my really is this underhand whiffle ball pitches. You're just giving me the best questions I'll give you. I'll give you a wonderful technique that I do. I call it the company name, spike.

This is your first. Not even 30 seconds. It could be the first three seconds of a call. Let me give you an example. You have positive talk radio, right? And I'm calling your company and somebody answers the phone. They're like, hello, it's Kathy positive talk radio. I'm not gonna ask Kathy Al she's doing or even to speak to you yet.

I'm going to utilize anonymity just for my opening, not the whole call cause that's shady, but I will say, Hey, how's positive, tall radio. Doing. So, what I'm doing is I'm saying the name of your company better than your person did and they're gonna realize that I could be a mystery shopper, your best friend or your best client.

So obviously they're gonna answer me. We're doing great. And that's usually when they ask my first buffer boomerang question, who are you? I'm gonna go, Kathy. That's an excellent question. My name is Richard blank, and then we're gonna have a nice conversation. I'm gonna let them know that I'm gonna give them a positive.

When I do get transferred to speak with you, we spoke about that earlier. And so all I'm doing is using my first couple seconds to say something that you are familiar with. I said it better than you cuz you know, I'm gonna say it better than you. And I'm going to use this anonymity cuz most of the time when they start asking how Kathy is doing or being able to speak to you directly, usually they say we're good, thanks.

Or no thank you. Or what he is selling. I'm not doing any of that. I'm immediately showing good faith and I'm taking it from certain percentages of a half point shot to not even a three point shot. Now it's like foul shot percentages. I'm not guaranteeing you a hundred percent, but what I can do is increase your percentages of prolonging a conversation because no one's going to ever give you 10 minutes.

Gavin, you know this? No, you're lucky if you get 30 seconds. So my opinion is to keep buying. And if you're capable of doing that by some due diligence, if you mention pinball machines on my phone call calling me, unless I got something to do, it's really yours to lose. I will literally give you five minutes to pitch me because it showed that you took a couple extra seconds like you did prior to this podcast.
