Ask questions to solve problems
Thrive Marketing Strategies • June 30, 2014

To build rapport with customers and clients, an inquisitive nature is best.

When you sense a hesitation or feeling of discomfort, don’t ignore it. Dig deeper without causing more angst.

Ask questions like:

  • Is there anything I should know about (this subject)?
  • Is there a way I can support you in this?
  • You show you are listening and give them permission to share with you exactly what’s going on.
  • Trust me, you want to know your customer’s thoughts and feelings.

Whether it directly relates to you or not, you can help solve their problems. And, solving their problems is the real goal.
