“Become a communicator and you become an entrepreneur. There is no stopping the ideas that flow when we think about what we say – before we speak.” ~ Debra Arko

Every day we communicate with others both verbally and non-verbally. Every time we smile at another person, say “Hello” to someone, carry on a conversation or even purposely ignore someone, we are communicating. To become an entrepreneur you must learn to effectively communicate verbally

When verbally communicating there are questions, commentary, editorials and more happening at lightning speed. What we don’t see is our body language or non-verbal cues. All of this together tells our listener what we really want to say.

This is why learning to speak intentionally can have a huge impact on your success as an entrepreneur.

Stepping back before we answer is a good motto to hold onto. It doesn’t mean waiting so long the other party thinks we don’t understand; it’s thinking BEFORE answering.

How do we do this?

Simply Practice

Take one breath in and out slowing

while thinking first about the question and then what you want to say before saying it. With practice you’ll become a natural.

Tools: I use a set of question cards I made for my clients. They select one a day

and read the question using this practice step. Then I have them write out a dozen for me!

Learning how to formulate the question helps you better communicate answers to questions.

This communication practice and tool can be used to become a better communicator in most any verbal communication style.

Effective Verbal Communication For Entrepreneurs is truly easy. It allows you to make your future as successful as you desire and improves all areas of life.
