Clear Communication

I want to convey my gratitude. My previous employer provided The Asking Formula to all of us.

While the sales team had interest, the technical staff took the lessons to heart. So many of them are not experienced with soft skills and stumble when communicating their needs. Using The Asking Formula everyday reduced the wordiness of their requests. This gave them credibility which is what the all really wanted.

Now that I am a full time entrepreneur, The Asking Formula a great tool I continue to use. I send copies of the book to friends, family, and my vendors so we all have clear communication.

Thank you again for the great program

Started it This Morning

Thanks for a very provocative and applicable seminar.  I started my “applied practicing” at a meeting this morning.

Wasted No Time in Implementing

I wasted no time in implementing the strategy into my role. I’ve been actively trying to fill an open position on the west coast and have had to go through the agonizing process of reviewing unqualified resumes. I also have a former Horton employee (in good standing) who has expressed interest.

So, I had a Friday morning meeting with our VP of Human Resources and the very first thing I did was hand her a copy of this fellow’s resume and said, “I’m asking you to fast track this resume and get this guy aboard”.  Before I could even get to my 3 Best Reasons (I was ready for that) she said, with a slight hesitation, “Alright”.

This definitely made me a firm believer in the method.
