Anyone here have any success talking with a accent?

Was just wondering anyone here have a accent that they think gave them a slight edge. I know this one guy in my workplace as soon as he wants to get some bookings done he puts his British accent.

This is a fascinating idea. I'd like to see some A/B tests

Not really an accent. But using the local dialect is really helpful

Yes. I try and mirror whatever I can. I'm not going to try copying an accent because I'd end up sounding like a dumbass but using the same slang, speed, and level of formality goes far.

I remember talking to a southerner and he kept calling one of our features the “who dah”

I have a strange talent called Dysprosody. It means I can pick up on someone’s accent and start to mimic it after a short time. Has gotten me into some doors and creeped out other people.

It never works they detect it right away. It’s like the story of the hippo from along came Polly

I’m from the UK and I think matching someone else’s accent helps, makes them feel more comfortable but I am so bad at them 😂😂

Only Australia for some reason. The vibes are just crazy when mirroring

I did it once - my lead though I was located in his town due to the directed dialer so I had to improvise a bit - I was visiting that city months ago so I thrilled to share the experience and we had a nice time.
