When you don’t have credibility, clients say things like.
“It’s all good now.” “That issue has faded in the last three months.”
They answer questions with questions. “Can you tell me more about you? Why should we work with you?”
No credibility- No traction! #InstantCred
![Page 31: How to Get Instant Credibility with the Best Prospects](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051112/559458dc1a28ab642f8b47c5/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
How Much Credibility?
Enough credibility until your client will answer the questions you ask.

Shared Community
1. Personal Connection- The Michigan lakes.
2. Referral (in this case from me)
3. Business connection- the two companies were already familiar with each other.

Meeting before the Meeting • Meeting starts the moment you walk in the
building. • Be deliberate. Have a list of logistical
questions to ask the receptionist. (How many people work here?)
• Pay attention. Ask questions about what you see that you are authentically curious about.
• Disclose – It let’s them connect to you. Disclosure invites disclosure.
