THE AUTHENTIC SMILE DEFINED : “It’s all in the eyes I was once told. A smile isn’t genuine, unless the eyes smile too. Words mean nothing, unless the eyes speak them too.”-Author Unknown
Smiles are a transfer of energy.
They generate a genuine encouraging and upbeat frame of mind to the sales/client/customer interplay.
It creates an atmosphere of trust, rapport, and likability, enhancing your ability to influence and persuade others.
An Authentic Smile fosters mind blowing achievement levels for sales/business developers.
The masterstrokes that flow from an authentic smile are compelling first impressions, the creation of a unified and empathetic shared arena of respect and trust, and a direct line of mutual confidence for all involved in the transactional experience:
First impression: A smile is a big part of how a customer perceives a salesperson.
Atmosphere: Smiling can help break the ice and make the customer feel more comfortable.
Confidence: A smile reinforces that a salesperson is confident about themselves and their job.
Belief: A smile can show that a salesperson believes in what they’re selling.
⚡⚡⚡ BE FOREWARNED: “I was glad my father was an eye-smiler. It meant he never gave me a fake smile because it’s impossible to make your eyes twinkle if you aren’t feeling twinkly yourself. A mouth-smile is different. You can fake a mouth-smile any time you want, simply by moving your lips. I’ve also learned that a real mouth-smile always has an eye-smile to go with it. So watch out, I say, when someone smiles at you but his eyes stay the same. It’s sure to be a phony.” ~Roald Dahl
⚡Sarner B’s Crossroads of Foretaste & Query:
👉NEXT UP: DIAL & SMILE- Smiling changes the tone of your voice, making it sound warmer, more inviting, and enthusiastic. This can put the caller at ease and set the tone for the rest of the call.
👉CORNER JUNCTION OF PONDER & WONDERINGS:
1-Are you a SMILE-STUDIER? If not, why not? If so, how do you monitor and critique your smile?
2-Do you study the smiles and eyes of others? If not, why not? (Books, Videos, People Watching etc.)
3-Whats the first thing you look for when meeting clients for the first time?
4- For males: When meeting a female client are you careful not to smile and stare or glare? Hint: Why does he keep staring at me and smiling? He’s attracted to you.
Let’s Make This A Great Day!
