Rules of engagement when asking someone a question 🤔 1) Don’t ask permission to ask the question. Just Ask! 2) Provide the information they need to answer appropriately. Do: I am interested in learning more about digital marketing for the b2b space. Don’t: I want to learn marketing. 3) Don’t ask what you can find by Googling. That’s lazy. Don’t ask “why did you start this company?” when you can google and find the answer in a ton of previous interviews. Ask questions that haven’t already been answered. 4) Don’t expect an answer. People are busy! But, if you get an answer - do show your appreciation. 5) Reciprocation works! Do: I’ve purchased and read both your past books. My question is:... Most authors are much more willing to engage with their readers than strangers. What would you add to this list? #people #learning #success …see more
