How to Build Rapport In Less than 5 Minutes 1. Say their name Don't take this for granted. Use it early. Use it often. People love hearing their name. 2. Use their words Use language you hear them use. People love people like themselves. Connect quickly by mirroring their words. 3. Lean in... literally Lean into the conversation... physically. Don't pull away. Literally lean your head/ body in. It shows you're engaged. 4. Eye contact I know this is a "duh" but watch the next person you talk to and you'll realize just how much we look away. Don't do it. Make them feel like they're the only one who exists. 5. Open ended questions Get them talking about themselves with open ended questions. Actively listen. Ask follow ups based on content. Listen 70% of the conversation and you win. What would you add? Leave a Comment!
