Conscious listening

CONSCIOUS LISTENING

Conscious listening is necessary to sell well it is necessary to communicate well. To communicate well, the basics are listening skills. We have been taught to talk, but we have not been taught to listen. Today we are going to learn how to listen, and how this "new way of listening" will make you make a quantum leap in your sales. Will you join me?

"We have two ears and one mouth: to hear twice as much as we speak." -Epictetus, Greek philosopher, 55 A.D.

Listen to NOT ES...

Remaining silent while the other person is talking, and at the same time, you are thinking about something else (a customer you forgot to call, a bill you forgot to pay or a personal matter such as buying milk for breakfast).

Listening requires your full attention to:

Firstly, what the other says, and what he or she does not say.
On the other hand, how you say it (high/low voice, fast/slow speed, tone of voice).
And finally, how your body is (open/closed; tense/relaxed).

Listening IS NOT either...

Remaining silent while the other person speaks, but be thinking about your response and what you are going to say.

Listening requires silencing our internal dialogue

Therefore, just as a full glass cannot hold any more water, our brain, if it is occupied with our own words and thoughts, leaves no room for what the other person is telling us. It is about "EMPTYING" YOUR MIND in order to "FILL IT" WITH WHAT THE OTHER PERSON is telling you.

ABOVE ALL, CONSCIOUS LISTENING INVOLVES TWO THINGS:

MINDFULNESS + MENTAL SILENCE.

ONLY THROUGH CONSCIOUS LISTENING CAN WE:

Understand what is wrong with the other person, what they need (is it my customer profile?): we cannot sell "to everyone".
On the other hand, you will find the right questions for the person to see the value of your service/product for what they need (This is what I want/need!!!): people like to buy, not be sold to.

Corollary: tell you that listening applied in any type of communication will make you see things differently. I encourage you to practice it with your family, partner, friends... and see the difference.
