  • Is Your Listening Ability Where It Should Be?  By : Will Smith
    Great listening skills is one the list of essential qualities in terms of personal life and working life too. Your ability to listen to others has a large impact upon your relationships with others, both in your personal and professional life. Learning and understanding what other people are talking about, comprehending new ideas, enjoying other people are part of why we listen to other people every day.

    The statistics around the amount of information we listen to everyday are amazing. you would believe that you are an excellent viewers in music, internet, TV, etc Although, unfortunately, that's not so. Actually, we just recall 1/4 to 1/2 of anything that we listen to daily.

    Typically, even when you are having an important discussion with your manager or your spouse, you will remember only 25-50% of what is being said. With any luck, the tiny fraction you do recall includes the most significant part of the discussion!
    Obviously, improving your listening skills can be a great personal benefit. Listening more clearly will help you do better and influence others. Conflict and misunderstandings can be avoided if you have great listening skills.

    To do this, you need to pay attention to the other person. Make the effort to notice what they say and what they don't say.

    Listening skills include using your eyes as well to study the body language of the individual talking. Body language is often a better indicator of understanding than actual spoken words. Proper listening ability is more that what the ear hears, it also relates to the context of the words being spoken. Keep your focus on what the other person is saying to you, not what you will respond with or what is happening around you.
    And you also can't let yourself lose your concentration on what the other individual is talking about. All such difficulties add on to a less listening and understanding.

    Many hospitals are now hiring at top dollar for spanish speaking employees. They are taking notice that both speaking spanish and having great listening skills are key to properly treat their spanish speaking patients. You can show your focus by nodding or stating "uh huh".

    Proper listening skills are made up of five components. They provide assistance in making certain that you are getting the other persons message correctly.

    1) Focus on the content of the conversation.
    2)Display as if you were listening to whatver was being said.
    3. Respond to what the other person is saying to you.
    Four, you can hold off from being critical of information until you fully understand it.
    5-Use particular language and body expression when responding.

    Your listening ability will be significantly better after taking note of these steps. Make it your mission to elevate the level of your listening skills right now. Successful listening skills contribute greater value to you personally and as a worker too.

  • LEAVE A MESSAGE  By : mimi A
    No matter how your potential clients come to you--referrals, ads, ServiceMagic leads, phonebook--they have value. For example, a fence builder might build one $1000 fence for every 10 clients he talks to, meets, or gets a phone call from. At that rate, each name, each phone number, each potential client is worth $100 of business. The game for you, of course, is to convince more clients to hire you and to build more expensive fences.

    While we can't help what type of fence your clients prefer, we can offer some internal advice that has bubbled to the top in terms of best practices.

    "If you don't get them on the phone. Leave a message anyway," says Dave Lupberger, long-time remodeler from the DC area. "Sure, maybe they're screening, maybe they hired somebody else. But maybe that contractor doesn't work out. Maybe they need other work." And maybe they don't yet realize that they need you.

    What You Should Do
    If you get their voice mail, here is your chance to leave an impression. Give them your name, the company name, phone #, email or website, and tell them that you are available if they need an estimate, some advice, or to relieve them from another contractor's mistakes.

    Practice this. Write it down so that it is short and sweet and delivers a compact message about you and your business. Find what works and stick with it.

    Your Job is Done
    Beyond this, what more can you do? You tried to contact, you made yourself available should the need arise, you left contact information, and you were cordial. But the point is that many service professionals waste this opportunity. They hang up and move onto the next client. Yet if you take 30 seconds to leave an informative message about who you are and why they should care, you can never predict the amount of positive outcome from this little act.

    It's those little extras that make the difference. Hope this helps.
