Are you Good at Building Relationships or Walls?

It’s just not TRUMP.

Walls. We have so many of them in our lives today…

Firewalls, texting, keyboard warrior walls, walls that divide our new housing estates… Walls, that we believe will keep us safe.

The most damaging wall of all: our Emotional Wall.

Have you ever considered whether your emotional wall is inhibiting your ability to find and build new business relationships? The type of relationships that could really foster growth in your business.

You run into someone you met at the last networking event. They ask how you have been or what you have been up to.

“Oh, I have been so busy” …

BOOM!

Wall up because you can’t reveal that you are struggling. You don’t want to appear a failure so you just carry on with the fake persona that your business is a great success without any evidence to back that up except to say your ‘busy’.

How does that help? Saying you’re busy?
It takes the conversation nowhere and simply leaves the other person wondering.

People buy from those they like, know and trust…
You only know they don’t trust you when they:

• Won’t reply to your emails from your marketing email campaign,
• Won’t respond to your call to action,
• Won’t open their wallets
• Won’t turn up to your events

Are you aware of your walls and how they may be impacting your business?

Can any of you relate to the above?

What walls can you recognise that you have put up in your business?
