How to bulid rapport easily and naturally.
She was an attractive girl, one who was used to jerks hitting on her.
I was sitting there, I watched her move from across the room, and I knew that I wanted to talk with her. She looked interesting, energetic, alive.
So I walked past her, up to the counter, to get another cup of coffee, I glanced over at her, relaxed, focused my gaze on her, and immediately I noticed her neclace.
“Hi, I’ve been admiring your necklace from across the room, did you make it?”
She looked at me, saw that I was sincere, and then we started talking.
In the next 25 minutes, I learned that she bought it on a trip to Virginia Beach, and that she goes there 2 times a year. Once with her friends, once with her family.
We talked until she had to get back to work, she would have given me her number if I had asked, she hinted several times, and she said she hoped that we would bump into each other again. We did, I introduced her to Carol, and she became a friend of ours.
“All of the good ones are taken.”
So why did she open up like that? I didn’t “NLP” or “seduce” her.
How to easily and naturally get rapport.
“When you meet someone, keep in mind that you meet their heart, their body, their mind.”
I tied all three of those together. I gave her a genuine compliment, asked a question I wanted the answer to, and centered it all around something SPECIFIC about her. This something specific could be about a thing she has or activity she does.
Compliment = heart.
Question = mind.
Necklace = body.
You can use this “method” to meet just about anyone, and if you are genuine with it, you can get invited deep into their world.
Have fun,
