It’s kind of funny that I need to do an episode on this topic.  Because you know how to talk to people. You've been having conversations your whole life. The only reason you have an issue starting a conversation with someone is when you throw your business into the mix.  For most conversations - you KNOW how to respond, but you doubt yourself that you might say the wrong things and jeopardize the RESULT you want. That’s one of the biggest downsides of being TRANSACTIONAL. You’ll always struggle with what to say because you’re results focused.  Today, I’m going to give you some actionable advices for starting a conversation with someone on social media (whether you know them or not).
