How many times have you heard someone say “I can’t remember names”?
The number one reason people can’t remember names is that when they are meeting other folks what is going through their mind is “I can’t remember names”. Well it is almost impossible to do something you don’t think you can’t do. And remembering names is the most immediate of all business, social and intellectual skills.
If price is important the easiest thing to make more important than price is the person themselves.
What a great program for an incentive meeting:
• First it is totally vital,
• The incentive, everyone wishes they could be better at it
• The inspiration, they can immediately improve
Here is how this INSPIRATIONAL PROGRAM works.
• Warm up the endorphins
• 18 keys to remembering names immediately
• How to use these keys
• Your “Ace-in-the-hole”
• (what to do when nothing comes to mind)
• It takes at least 500 milliseconds and at most 6 seconds
PARTICAPTORY INSPIRATION – PUTTING THE TECHNIQUES TO WORK. We get 20 -25 people from the audience to the front of the room and use the techniques to remember the names of everyone. This is so much fun because using your memory properly is the equivalent of telling yourself a joke.
Your Special bonus: This activity boosts comraderie because participants learn to remember the names of the other attendees, in fact for the rest of the conference they will regal each other with the techniques they use to remember each other more than that it will form bonds between them as only memories can.
• Proof that it actually works-they really can remember names.
• They get to test themselves.
• Most people enjoy a 90 plus percent success rate
• Three techniques to go from immediate memory to short term memory
• How and why these three techniques can and must be employed
PARTICAPATORY INSPIRATION - PERFECT PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT. Another 20 – 25 people from the audience come to the front of the room and they tell us their names and as a group we discuss ideas of how the 18 techniques can be applied to remember all their names. Again, this is often very brilliant, always hilarious, and creates a positive feeling for everyone.
• They actually see themselves doing things they never thought possible. NOW THAT IS A RETURN ON INVESTMENT beyond belief.
• Your top producers out performing their expectations makes you drool at the possibilities.
YOU DON’T ALWAYS MEET ONE PERSON AT A TIME. Some times you have to meet 4 or 5 people one right after the other. Most people are lucky if they can remember even one name, and they don’t know who that belongs to.
• Don’t let what you cannot do get in the way of what you can do.
• Decide to remember first names or last but not both
• Make one name out of many.
• Make a human sacrifice (it works and it is painless)
"I was at a house party the other evening, there were 109 people and I got everyone of their names right, I would never have thought I could remember as many names." William Lane, Remax
• PARTICIPATORY INSPIRATION - DISCOVER THROUGH PRACTICE WHAT WORKS FOR YOU. In this exercise we will get three groups of five people to tell us their names in quick succession just as if we were meeting five new people when we sit down to lunch. Here is how the discovery works, each person will try to apply each of the three techniques in a controlled fashion there by discovering for them selves which of these techniques works best.
IMAGINE IF YOU COULD ACCOMPLISH THE IMPOSSIBLE. What if you could go to a meeting of 50 or 60 or 70 people and remember ALL their names. IF PRICE IS IMPORTANT THE EASIEST THING TO MAKE MORE IMPORTANT THAN PRICE IS THE PERSON THEMSELVES. And if you want to have enormous and immediate influence with any group the best thing you can do is remember all their names.
• The best way to get the names of every person
• How to set your self up so you can easily tell who is who
• Get the best impact from your memory
• Involve everyone in your presentation
• Captivate their attention
• Gain instant credibility
• Set yourself apart from all your competitors
• Giving your presentation with total confidence
• Have more fun than you ever had before
• Make more friends than you ever dreamed possible
TURNING SHORT TERM MEMORY INTO LONG TERM MEMORY. Most people are aware that short term memory is different from long term memory. And most are aware of the typical learning curve which indicates that under normal conditions we are doing well if we remember 20% of the data we learn in a day.
• Take advantage of the learning curve
• Sure fire techniques to remember names long term
• Capitalize on the special bonus that comes with long term memory
• Remembering people out of context is easier than you thought
• Make other people feel important and save face
ESTABLISHING 500 POWERFUL RELATIONSHIPS PER YEAR WITH EASE. Based on the exercises already performed in this seminar most people would agree that remembering two new folks a day would be easy.
• You can remember 500 new names and faces per year
• Follow up system and how to use it
• Your reason for remembering names how develope it and how to use it
• The good news is even when it does not work the effort you put into this will have an ongoing benefit for your memory
YOU WON’T FIND A BETTER INCENTIVE.
• This is something that everyone wants
• Everyone will remember the names of 50 or more of the other attendees
• They will go home with a new skill they know they can use
