"The Secret Art of Building Rapport"

Rapport can be described as being connected with either one or more individuals.

Some people are naturally astute at this while others can develop the skill.

Let’s take a look at one of the easiest methods of gaining consecutiveness.

The quickest way to build connection is by a having an outward pleasant demeanor.

You may be asking; “Do you mean smiling?”

Yes, Smile

Surprisingly, smiling almost always triggers a likewise response from those who are the recipients.

Now by smiling, I do not mean portraying the look of the stereotypical sales person who flashes those freshly capped white teeth at a moments notice.

This type of façade is often seen for what it is and resented by those who you are attempting to make a sale.

However, a genuine smile with not hidden attachments to it other than:

I see you and wish Allah’s (God’s) peace upon your life.

Can you recall the feeling you have when an enfant smiles at you? This is the type of smile we should freely give others.

Let’s be honest!

Will there be those who will still find suspicion behind your smiles?

Perhaps, but if they see you do it regularly with those you come into contact; they will on a deeper level appreciate your sharing it (your smile) with them.

You will find eve in an ever callus world...

People still value sincerity. Therefore, the next time you want to connect with someone:

”Just Smile”
