I Spoke With God Today, How Come I Can’t Speak With You?
By Larry Benet on Mar 26, 2008 in Follow-Up
I spoke with God Today, how come I can’t speak with you?
That was a message I left today for a very busy executive attempting to get her to return my call.
I know this person very well, and know she really is CRAZY BUSY.
People are busier today then they ever have been, so leaving just one email or phone message isn’t enough.
What is the best message you have left for someone that got your phone call returned?
The best answer we receive, I will give away one of the best coaching calls I have ever done called:
“Influencing the Influencer”

Most cute lines like that come off as criticism and turn people off.
I found that connecting with someone new is easier when I do it through a mutual contact.

I agree with you, had a relationship with this person, and was trying
to be creative to stimulate a response back from someone who is
incredibly busy.
Thanks for your feedback

Two different thought’s poped in my mind when I read that line? The first was has this person got a mental problem? Talked to God today,The second was is this person being sarcastic. Just being honest

larry… you doth rock.
i actually tried this…just this week…guess what?
it freaking works!!!!!
i couldn’t get this key executive to call me back. even though we had spoken several times over the past month.
finally, in desparation (it is end of qtr time) i sent him an email and said “how come every time i talk to God, he answers me…but when i try to talk to you…i don’t hear anything??
the guy called me (not email) back in 20 minutes.

just listened to the recorded version of your training call at success university and I must say I’ve learnt more about networking in the last one hour than I have in the last one decade.Thanks for making it so simple!

Had a client that was not paying his bill. I found some blank cardboard pre-stamped like a puzzle. I wrote on it “I’m puzzled as to why you have not paid your bill. please contact me if you have any questions.” I broke up the pieces, put them in the envelope & mailed it. I received a check within 10 days.
