Stop asking ‘how are you doing?’
How often do you start a conversation with "How are you doing?" without truly caring about the answer? What if there were better ways to start a conversation that would lead to more meaningful interactions? In this episode, I delve into why this question often falls flat and suggest alternative approaches to improve your engagement with clients. Discover how asking more thoughtful questions can enhance your connections and improve your business interactions.
Listen to this new 6-minute episode for tips on asking better questions that truly matter and create meaningful conversations.
Episode Summary:
In this episode of the Wedding Business Solutions podcast, I delve into why the common question, "How are you doing?" often falls flat in professional interactions. Drawing inspiration from telemarketer calls and Chris Voss's book "Never Split the Difference," I explain how this question usually lacks genuine care and serves no purpose. Instead, I suggest more meaningful alternatives like asking, "What's new and exciting for you?" or "What do you love about what you do?" These questions can foster deeper connections and more productive conversations. Join me as I share practical tips to improve your communication skills and make your interactions more impactful.
