| Post subject: | Unintentional openers |
I noticed today that I've reached new lengths. I'm unintentionally sparking conversations. I was at the busstop with my notepad, writing down some guidelines for a story I'm working on and I was sitting next to a bunch of friends who were laughing and what-not. I happened to get stuck on a small little detail in my writing and turned to the group. Me: "Hey! I need a name!" Them: "Huh?" (After noticing that I was asking them) Me: "I'm writing a story about child-soldiers in a near-future Russia. I need a name." And it was on. I got a few suggestions along with a bunch of questions about my story and then I started to joke around with them and -booom-... I noticed that I, unintentionally, had become the center of attention and displayed a lot of high value. One of them suddenly asked for my e-mail and they all decided to jot it down, while I got their mails in return, along with one number. Anyone else who discovered things like this without even thinking about it? |

Yup, well done. I like doing that as well. This is when I open with most confidence too. I like to walk and talk with my wing in a mall. We're chatting and whenver we discuss and anything pop ups, we use that to open. Close to Haloween my wing was looking for a Pirate's hat. So we opened a a few sets right there in the momemt if they knew any good costume/accesory stores. We discuss music and ask if "beat is more important then lyrics" etc... your congruency CAN'T be off that way. |

This is something that works really good in any typ of situation. We had some marketing problems last year were I work and I ended up asking random buisnessguys what they thought would be the best solution. People love it when you ask them for advice or knowledge in a matter. That month, we got a new customer, one of the guys I asked for advice pulled some strings and made us a lot of money. |

The unintentional openers are often the greatest because it's far more natural and comes across as such. Being yourself in those situations just exudes confidence, the "story writer" thing is a great show of creativity. (Women love creativity in all senses... think about it) Over-all, it's a great job. I wouldn't be to stoked on the email's and stuff, but the number close is an immediate boost. Grats. I love these situations, done things like that myself. (I also write stories and songs with my friends a few of which are signed on local labels for rap and rock.) The musical influence and creative side is a great opener-transition, and can be used for closing. Explore it a bit more when in the field even for doing things like randomly using that "creative influence" to just pull rabbits out your spontaneous ass. -Abel- |
