Topic: Use Emotions to Attract Your Ideal Client
Don't underestimate the power your emotions play as you work with clients (or those close to you). Through her presentation, Paula Pagano, recipient of awards for Top Salesperson and Top Listing Agent in various San Francisco firms during her thirty years in real estate, will demonstrate how to let go of emotional communication blocks and use your positive emotions of empathy and enthusiasm to attract clients perfect for you. Being emotionally authentic will make it easier for you to gain your clients trust, repeated business and referrals.
In addition to forming her own sales training company, Client Direct, in 2003, Paula recently published "Secrets of a Top Salesperson – How Emotions Make or Break the Sale", to share her experience and knowledge with others. She is an active member of the National Speakers' Association and participates in several national, professional and civic organizations.
