Okay, so…Having posture, is you coming from a position of strength, not weakness.

Often times, when we are talking to someone about our products or opportunity and they say they are too busy right now to take a look, or maybe they are even flat out negative and say something like, “I’ve tried one of those things before. Only the people at the top make money. It’s a scam.”, we go right into convincing mode.

We love our company and we love our products and we just know that if they take a look, there’s a great chance that they’ll love them too so we go into all the reasons why our company is so great and how it’s different than anything else out there.

You told him you’d love to, but you’re super busy right now with the holidays coming up and the kids home from school, but you’ll let him know as soon as you’re freed up a bit. 

He said he completely understood. However, 30 min later he reaches out to you and tells you that he’s the best guy out there, he’s not like anyone else you’ve ever dated, he’ll adapt his schedule to yours and he’ll be available whenever you are, the next day, the day after, the day after that, the day after that and he gives you all the reasons why you need to go on a second date with him right away, completely dismissing the fact you told him you were busy.

He’s coming off as being desperate, pushy and needy. A complete turn off. You would go from being interested in seeing him again, to being completely repelled. There is not a chance that you’ll...
