The P.t. Entrepreneur Podcast

Ever feel like you're trying to connect with people, especially for your business, and it's just not clicking? Maybe you're going about it the wrong way. Today, I'm talking about a simple, but super powerful, idea: start by being genuinely interested in other people. It’s not about you, at least not at first. I learned this (again) talking to a wine distributor. I don't even drink much wine! But by just asking him questions and listening, he thought I was interesting. The same goes for building those crucial local business relationships. Forget the pitch about how awesome you are; find out what makes them tick.
