Some people are very good at speaking, telling their stories and being able to inspire others. But being a good listener is often more important than speaking. It gives a deeper level of understanding about someone’s situation, and helps to know what words are best to use and what words should be avoided.

Should we consider the meaning behind people’s words? Should we look beyond the vowels and the consonants to understand their body language and tone of voice to get clarity on their

Thanks for this question.

A good listener will be able to understand the situation correctly and give correct and concrete guidance with appropriate words so that the other person will derive confidence and courage and will be able to move on with hope and optimism.

1. Whether on line or off line one has to have patience to listen to the other person.
2. You should not interrupt while the other person is talking.
3. You should be fully attentive to what you are

To be a good listener in online marketing you need good eyes for reading, and a keen mind for understanding what you’re reading.

The rules of conversation are the same, no matter what mode you’re using.

We can be actively listening when communicating with our team online in much the same way as when we're communicating with people face to face. You say what you want to say, and I will listen and understand what you want to hear from me.

While online, we have

Hi there

When we do online marketing it sounds sort of strange to say you want to be a good listener - but if you think about it, it is not strange.

You can communicate with your affiliates via phone or Skype but mostly you will communicate in writing.

I think communicating in writing is actually an advantage. It is not listening with your ears but you have to "listen" in a different way. Communication is not always verbal. Use this to be a good listener.

You become a good listener while online by learning to read between the lines... is the tone serious? is it facetious? are they distressed? are they basically yelling in frustration? do they ask you the same things over and over, just worded differently (usually indicative of having NOT read enough yet)? are the questions giving any indication the person has been doing some reading, but having trouble understanding?

There are subtle giveaways to mood and intention in the written word,

Hi Alma,

Good day! Your question is also good & interesting because the God has provided a human being with 2 ears and only one mouth to indicate us that we should listen more and speak less & the required words only.

Here are few ways to be a good listener on online/offline marketing:

1. Just introduce yourself first. Allow them to introduce them, paying attention to their name.

2. Tell that you are involved in a part time/full time online business,

Often, when you are engaged in a dialogue with the prospect, he or she will be asking more questions than yourself. The prospect is keen to know what this new idea is, how it works and how it will impact his or her life. The prospect will also be wondering whether they have the means or the capacity to succeed. The dialogue can be either face-to-face or online and either way, your art of listening is vital if you are to get your message through.
