This is the sixth post in response to question prompts in Seth Godin's Freelancer Course, found on Udemy. Please feel free to include your answers to these questions in the comment section.
What emotions do you want people to take away from interactions with you?
I understand why this question is in a course on freelancing. People don't buy simply because of the product. They buy because of the people. The stories. The emotions.
But these emotions, and the intent to create these emotions, shouldn't just be limited to the times when we want something from someone else. It really should be a part of who we are. Whether we are talking with our children, our co-workers or the cashier at the grocery store.
This is a great question. And it should be asked by every one. In every profession. Every day. Not because you have something to sell. Because you have a story to tell.
For me:
Appreciated. That someone cares about their success.
Interested. I've given them something to think about.
Confident. That they know more than they did before and can tackle their content questions -- or know who to contact if they can't.
