Sooner or later, no matter what you do for a living, you are going to deal with a difficult person.  For those of us in the dispute resolution professions, this is especially true as we deal day and and day out with people going through conflict and that combativeness spills over into our lives far too often.

It is important to have strategies in place for how to deal with these situations far in advance of the moment that someone shouts at us, shakes their finger in our face or makes wild accusations about our character in the heat of the moment.

This episode will walk you through the before, during and after so that when the moment gets heated, you can keep your cool and maintain your professionalism, no matter how difficult your client may get!

Whether you know it or not, we live in a world driven by social proof.  Think of the last time you went online to choose a restaurant for dinner.  Did you look at the rating from previous diners in making your decision?  How about your next Netflix binge?  Did you start with a look at the "Top 10 This Week?"

Social Proof is not new.  Robert Cialdini coined the phrase "social proof," meaning the psychological phenomenon that describes our tendency to rely on the opinions or actions of others to inform our own, in 1984.  However, as our world has become increasingly dependent upon access to instant information online, the reliance upon social proof in the form of ratings, testimonials and feedback, has increased substantially.  In fact, more than 84% of people trust online reviews as much as word of mouth from family and friends.

So how can you as a professional, leverage social proof to get yourself more clients?  Turns out it's fairly low hanging fruit with a little to no actual cost involved!  

Tune in to this episode to find out how to best source content for social proof, learn where to share and more so that you can Make Money Mediating too!
