Sales Talk: How to Nail Your First Impression in 7 Seconds
In today's rapidly changing sales environment, you have just seven seconds to make a lasting impression.
Whether you're quoting Jordan Belfort’s four seconds or Harvard’s five seconds, I firmly believe in the power of seven seconds to connect with potential clients.
### First Impressions Matter
In sales, your first approach sets the tone. Your words, tone, and appearance matter, so avoid virtual backgrounds on Zoom to build trust.
Sales is about trust. Blurry backgrounds or distractions can trigger doubt, but being transparent about your environment, even in a busy coffee shop, can boost authenticity and trust.
Start building rapport with a smile and a casual, non-sales comment to create warmth and reduce resistance.
Control the conversation from the start by clearly outlining the call's purpose and offering alternatives if you can't help. This shows confidence and a commitment to providing value.
Set aside some time to practice these techniques. The more natural and confident you become, the higher your chances of success.
