Turn yourself into a prospect magnet

By Jerry Bellune

All of us have gone to events and left, feeling like we wasted our time.
It wasn’t the fault of the event, the hosts or the guests. It was ours.
When we make a meeting “all about me” we miss an opportunity.

I learned not to give 50-word elevator speeches. No one wants to hear them.
They would rather talk about – guess what? – themselves. All of them have had fascinating events in their lives. But they’re frustrated. No one listens to them at home or at work.
Along comes someone with an attentive ear who wants to hear their story and voila! They’re ready to talk.

At business and social events, my introduction is short but intriguing.
I simply extend my hand to a stranger and say, “Hi, (whatever is on their name tag), I’m Jerry. I make people famous. What do you do?”
They happily tell me and want to know if I can make them famous, too.

Think about it. How could you revise those 4 small words, “I make people famous,” into something that you do?
“I show people how to …” or “I can teach you how to …”
Then try it out with the next stranger you meet, anywhere at any time.
You’ll be surprised at how well it works.
