Joe Polish, founder of Genius Network, has what calls the “Magic Rapport Formula,” which leads to 10X relationships and growth, and includes the following concepts:
Focus on how you will help them reduce their suffering
Invest time, money, and energy on relationships
Be the type of person they would always answer the phone for
Be useful, grateful, and valuable
Treat others how you would love to be treated
Avoid formalities, be fun and memorable, not boring
Appreciate people
Give value on the spot
Get as close to in-person as you can
When you engage with givers who operate by these principles, incredibly synergistic possibilities arise.
