Getting To Know You
The ability to ask more probing questions is your key to really increasing your results. Have you thought about the questioning process/conversation planning – think hard? I would like to understand your business better so I have a few questions to ask. OK? I always find it’s better if I keep a few notes as we go along. OK?
1) I guess the first one isn’t really a question – please just tell me about your business so I can get a good feel.
