"How to connect in Business in 90 seconds or less" helps your team grow antennae that pick up on customer needs and interests by teaching what's tough to teach: attitude, body language and conversation that engage customers quickly. The "connecting" lessons are practical and have application for virtually any selling environment. And, using these skills results in great by-product: namely increased sales and productivity while adding a fun element to growing relationships with both external and internal customers.

Just watched the 16 minute "How to Connect in Business... in 90 seconds or less" and thought it was excellent! You've crammed a ton of useful information into a relatively short amount of time. I believe trainees who want to grow will be motivated or inspired to make changes!! (I believe the prior promoting of the training will set the tone for trainee expectations. BTW: I think your website is very well done--Thanks for putting the previews out there.

Useful for customer service or sales training, this upbeat video brings a new approach to connecting with others in business. It's the Dale Carnegie message with up-beat music, good graphics and a compelling narrator. Useful tips to insure a sincere smile, test you've made eye contact and keep a conversation going with open-ended questions are among the easily accessible takeaways. The 17 minute length leaves training time for discussion, role playing and practicing the skills that are introduced.

Clear, concise and not overloaded with ideas. The objective, which was to make a positive connection with people in your life, was demonstrated very well by the narrator and supported very well with the graphics and visuals. I truly enjoyed it and would recommend it.
