It's called "mirroring".  Here's what it does in conversation: Facilitates bonding and trust, creates connection and empathy, buys you time to regroup your thoughts, and gets someone to open up (and keeps them talking). So, how can you use this in conversations with prospects and clients? We discuss: The biological and psychological reasons that mirroring is so powerful Why servers who mirrored customer's orders got higher tips Two ways to start mirroring words with prospects and clients To sign up for Brendan’s monthly newsletter focused on the human side of advice → Click Here Resources: The featured partner for this episode is Knudge, an automated system to help clients actually follow through on their tasks and reach their financial goals Connect with Brendan Frazier:  RFG Advisory LinkedIn: Brendan Frazier X:@jbrendanfrazier
