In This Economy ...


In this present day economy, we need a competitive edge. And that edge can come through what I call "committed speaking and listening".
In brief, what I share are some tools of language that bring about different ways of being, acting, and producing. For example: If I say "let's get together over lunch and discuss the possibilities for our working together on a project that may benefit both of us", and your listener says, perhaps, "Yeah that sounds good", and that is ALL that gets said, then while we have invented some possibility in that speaking, there is something missing. What is missing is ACTION.
What is present is a conversation that may or may not lead to the future action of actually sitting down at a lunch table and getting into a conversation for that possibility, but there is no actual commitment to DO that anytime soon. So what happens? We have no clue. Whether or not a meeting takes place seems left to chance or fate somehow.
What shifts this conversation from possibility to action? Consider this: After your listener has said, "Yeah, that sounds good," YOU say, "Good. How about tomorrow at 1 PM at The Four Seasons?" That is a clear REQUEST for the creation of a future that was not going to happen anyway. And the response comes, "Cannot do it tomorrow, but Friday will work" and you say (if your calendar is clear), "Done". See you there at 1 PM Friday. Now you have a designed future that you are both committed to. That ... requesting, and promising, is ACTION (language or speech acts) that creates a future ... and the promises made are in fact ACTIONS, and NOT merely "talking about", or speculations leading nowhere, or mere opinions.
This simple example may give you a taste of what our executive coaching is about. If you want to know more or schedule a trial session, contact Charlie Hayes by e-mail: Charliehayes36@yahoo.com ... or call +1 580 701-4793 between 10 AM and 6 PM Monday thru Friday.
The invitation is in your hands. I invite you to call or e-mail within 24 hours to explore what might be possible if YOU could gain a fresh perspective ... and a true "Competitive Edge".
Thank you for your time and attention.
Respectfully,
Charlie Hayes

Get more sales & profits, with less effort & struggle: Free intro Session!

Learn the language of results - Requests, Promises, Declarations, and Assertions. If there is one thing I can isolate that makes the most difference in the success or lack of success closing deals, it is knowing how to make things happen. In language. When you don't settle for "I'll get back to you,” but rather insist politely but firmly, "OK, let's set a time - how's Thursday afternoon for you?" - where you create the next committed action by requesting a promise for a specific action at a specified time. This, my friends, IS the "heart of the matter."

Knowing how to produce commitment, and being willing to ask for commitment from others, is the one essential skill for negotiation, marketing and sales. If you are not a master in this area, get someone to teach you. (Yes, I do teach this stuff... plug fully intended with an absolute absence of false humility!)
