842. How To Get Clear And Concise In Your Ask

The quality of your questions determine the quality of your relationships. Today, Chris and I are sharing our top tips for how to get the answers that you’re looking for by making your ‘asks’ clear and concise. We talk about creating an equal energy exchange and being self-aware and respectful of people’s time and resources. We discuss best practices for how to build your network and get on people’s radars. Trust me, I look back on some of the long-winded paragraphs that I’ve sent and we’re here to help you avoid making the same mistakes!
