The Power of The Slow Smile

April 20, 2010

happy ball Here’s something small you can try today that will  elevate your sales and persuasion skills.

The next time you smile at someone, smile slowly.

When you smile fast it comes across as forced and artificial, but if you slowly let the smile spread across your face, it will come across as friendly and sincere.

I think you’ll agree that one of the biggest problems with people these days is insincerity. Taking a full second or so to smile at someone won’t add any time to your day, but it’ll give your clients one more reason to remember you, and more importantly, to tell others how great you are.

I bet you’ll feel different too. When you smile, you can’t help but feel good. Give it a try!
