This is a short chapter—and a short episode—but one that deserves to stand on its own. In this episode, I read Chapter 14 of The Trust Premium, continuing Part III: Behaviors That Will Make Your Customers Trust You.
We look at how trust is shaped in the earliest moments of a professional interaction. From being on time and showing your face, to being prepared and present, the way you manage time, intimacy, and first impressions can make all the difference.
We also touch on the risks of faking personalization with AI tools—how it might seem efficient, but ultimately backfires when customers realize you weren’t genuinely invested.
Sometimes, it’s the smallest actions that have the biggest impact on trust.
