HOW TO UNDERSTAND PEOPLE BETTER . . .



                     •  May seem uninterested in listening to the customer’s
                        point of view

                     •  Loses sight of the goal because of all the details
                     •  Customers can lose interest because the contact is too

                        impersonal for them




               THINK ABOUT IT!
               To get a feel for what behavioral styles and sales skills each basic

               type has, practice by assigning yourself and then your customers and
               employees to one of the basic types. Review the descriptions pro-
               vided for each color type. Practice by using the terms you’ve become
               familiar with. This hands-on approach will help you become more
               comfortable and proficient in identifying and describing these traits
               in real-world scenarios.
