Show Notes: 11 Things Great Speakers Do Differently #6 - Serve Before Selling

Decision-Makers buy from people they:

  • Know
  • Like (aka—respect)
  • Trust

However, most speakers have the attitude of Always Be Selling, so they come out of the gate selling.

Great speakers, on the other hand, do things differently.

Great speakers serve before trying to sell:

  • They serve first, second, third, fourth, fifth, etc.
  • They "court" before asking for a "commitment"
