Become a master of small talk and great first impressions!

According to recent sociological research, an average person interacts with approximately 50,000 people throughout their life. The number is even higher if you live in a big city.

Did you ever wonder what kind of impression you leave on the people you meet? Have you ever been introduced to someone only to run out of things to say after the initial “hello”? Do you struggle with small talk and often find yourself in a “awkward silence” situation?

Luckily, there are methods and techniques you can use to improve your small talk skills, boost your confidence, and make a great first impression every time.

This book has the answers to these important questions:

• How can you use small talk to make a great first impression?
• How can you overcome fear and shyness in everyday social interactions?
• How can you avoid that awkward silence and keep the conversation going?
• What topics do you use and what to avoid when making small talk?
• What are some graceful ways to end the conversation?

Even if you’re naturally a person who thrives in social interactions, this book will take those skills to the next level.

Establish connection with people you meet with small talk, avoid awkward silences, stop struggling and start to enjoy social interactions everyday starting today.

If you want to learn how to meet new people and make meaningful connections, this audiobook is for you. This audiobook provides you a helpful guide from the first time you say hello to creating a good impression and connection using simple small talk skills.

Great book!

I will be practicing small talk by using helpful tips from this book! For anyone who has anxiety and struggles with meeting new people I highly recommend you read this book before reading any other book as this has a lot more valuable information than any other book I’ve purchases to develop my conversation skills

A compassionate book for the socially anxious

This audiobook will help you to get you to the next level of conversation skill and I have found all these methods are very much effective and quite easy to follow. It provides effective confidence-building strategies that speakers can try when participating in a range of different social interactions. Very basic knowledge but outstanding real world practical use. I have read the best books in this topic and this one’s pretty simple in comparison. However, I find it unique, that's why I just kept listening. Things I’ve heard before wrapped in kind and genuine words to help those who are struggling to communicate everyday with people and strangers. If you are sometimes socially anxious, if you are overly conscious, if you are afraid of what other people might think, and if all that is hindering you to enjoy even simple social interactions, then this is the book that cares about all that. It’s the most compassionate book I ever read on the art of conversation.
