Today’s message highlights the three power signs that effectively establish a smooth intercourse between strangers. In today’s episode I’m going to feature the signals that effectively establish communications between two unfamiliar people

I’m about to remind you of the power of the smile, the importance of the “hook,” and the significance of the sincere compliment. I like to consider these as the big three.

Yesterday’s encounter with United Airlines ticket counter agent could have ended up differently if not for the smile, the hook, and the compliment. Take a listen.
