Report Building Advice

Just saw this on LinkedIn by Armand Farrokh from 30 Min from Presidents Club. Had to share this since, I have seen people asking for advice on report building and I constantly fall into the trap of "How is the weather down in Austin?" "Nice, it is raining up here unfortunately"


When I ever I hear "tips" on starting off the call, I am always told to look at their LinkedIn and talk about one of their interest. However, majority of exec's don't post their interest but re-share the company's feed.


So I thought these three tips helps a lot get the conversation following early

Rapport building 2.0 at its finest.

Do some research. Ask something like "what are the comments around the water cooler on ...." and insert some piece of recent news. Google something 30sec before the call. It can be company specific or industry related.

Also, "did you hear...?" about another company in the same industry. Its easy.

“Do you use Rinvoq to visibly repair the colon lining?” Always solid for me. So many ways to go with it.
