Long, long time ago, I had a job in a
call center.
One of those aggressive, call-a-million-
people-a-day places.
They were selling some kind of long
distance service.
The training was one day, with the
guru firing everybody up.
They had a new training class once a
week.
Maybe 50 new people.
After one week, about 40 would quit.
And within a month, half of those who
were left would quit.
They paid ten bucks an hour, plus
commissions.
So they were willing to pay 45 people
(those that quit) for up to a month,
without much return.
The idea was that the remaining five
people that would stay would make up
the difference.
Meaning the income generated by
those five sellers, calling people over
and over and over would MORE than
pay for what it costs to pay the other
45 who never made a nickel.
I'm sure you've heard of the 80/20
rule? Twenty percent of the people
make eighty percent of the profits?
It's the same from the sellers point of
view.
Sure, 9 out of 10 people would hang
up. But that tenth person was where
the money was.
So long as they kept calling, they kept
making money.
As you can see, having awesome sales
skills wasn't required.
Only the ability to memorize a short
script, and a VERY thick skin.
Same goes with meeting people for
romantic reasons.
At least according to the theory.
Come up with an easy to spit out pick
up line, say to enough people, and
you'll collect some numbers.
Call enough numbers, and you'll get
some dates.
After all, it's just a number's game,
right?
Well, it is to most. But it doesn't HAVE
to be.
Because most communication models
don't teach people HOW to be
persuasive.
At the heart of most strategies is the
"numbers game" theory.
But in reality, there is a much, much
better way.
A way that doesn't require massive
rejection.
Or the stigma of being pushy or
creepy.
A much more respectful
communication model.
That is based on the OTHER PERSON
first, not your wants or needs.
A way to get them to WILLING open up
to you, and tell you things they've
never told anybody before.
A way to make them GLAD they
interacted with you, even if you don't
exchange contact information or
contracts or even agree on anything
you've discussed.
In truth, most communication
strategies only teach two quadrants,
when in reality there are four.
When you respect ALL FOUR, you'll
speak to people in a way they've never
heard before.
Making YOU stand out in their
memory for the rest of their lives.
In a very, very good way.
