Do you not know how to keep from being one of the faces in the crowd that never gets any attention?
Have you ever met someone and somehow gotten categorized as a “friend” when you wanted to be more?
Have you ever contacted someone and they don’t remember ever talking to you?
Yesterday we went to buy some flooring for one of our properties. Of course, we always look for good deals and this good deal was about an hour away. As we walked up the owner of the property jumps up out of his chair and walking towards us and says “Where have you been?”
We met him twice and have not seen him in over four years. The result of this is that we got a really good deal on the flooring and saved a ton of money.
A few weeks ago we went to our favorite sushi place. We have waited on by someone who was a new waiter that we have not seen before. It turns out that he had waited on us three years ago when the restaurant was owned by someone else and he remembered us. Then he went on to tell the person that we were with what great people we are and how we were great friends. He started talking to us about the old owner (who we have never met) and included us as part of the group.
The result of this is that we get a ton of free sushi 🙂
There we were in the Bloomsbury section of London. We needed a fuse for our sound system since I plugged it in without switching it over to 220 volts from the 110 the US runs on. As you could expect, finding the right kind of store took a few tries. Finally, we found an electronics store on a side street not far from our hotel. So we walk in, get the part we need and walk out.
3 years later…. I did it again. We remembered the little electronics store near the hotel so we walked over to get the fuse. The last guy we talked to was not there and they had to order the part. 2 days later we go to pick up the part and the woman we talked to told us the owner said hello. We were kind of puzzled. We didn’t know the owner. Then she explained that the owner was the guy we had talked to several years earlier. She thought we were friends with him. He had remembered us years later after a very short but fun conversation. In that short period of time, we had become…UNFORGETTABLE.
Did they just have a great memory or was it something else?
What is it that we did that made us stand out?
What did we say that made a difference?
How did we act differently than those who he did not remember?
Can you see how being unforgettable could help you?
The worst thing you can be is one of the invisible people. If you are easy to forget then you are easy to ignore.
-When you go for a job interview do you want to be the person who they forget about?
-When a networking opportunity comes up do you want to be the one they don’t call?
-When someone Is choosing to buy something from you do they remember that they talked to you?
-When someone wants to do something fun do you want to be the one who they forget to invite?
Can you think of one place in your life where everything would change if you were unforgettable?
The most important thing you can do is be remembered.
Even more important is what you are remembered for. Having the right kind of connection and relationship is the most important aspect of getting rapport. So many people make the mistake of thinking that being friendly is rapport. The truth is being the right person at that point with them in just the right way is what truly makes an impact.
There are three things you can do to stand out from everyone else.
Number one, ask questions that generate emotional responses.
Number two, listen when they speak as if what they’re saying is the most important thing in the world.
Number three, do things and say things that other people don’t do or say.
I understand that Is interesting information for most people, but when you add in the skills that we teach it becomes even more powerful and they are the main reason we have the success we do. Let me go through this again with the skills we teach.
Number one, ask questions to generate emotional responses and anchor those emotions so that you can trigger them later.
Number two, listen when they speak and adjust your position of rapport so that they feel what they’re saying is very important to you.
Number three, do and say things that other people don’t do or say. While using anchoring and rapport, you can lead someone into feeling ways that they don’t feel when they talk to other people.
There are two ways that you can get the skills and become UNFORGETTABLE.
