Communication is the name of the game in business, and the message is written all over your customer's or prospective employee's face. One look at a person's forehead can tell you more about their thought-processing style than the details of a written personality assessment. Eyelids tell you whether a person wants details, or the bottom line; the nose reveals the speed of making a decision. No other system offers immediate insight to human behavior, without any outside data from the subject. Increase your sales, build customer relationships, and avoid miscommunication. Learn 65 facial traits to grow your business, hire the best people, enhance team productivity, and improve your relationships with your prospects, customers and employees. Workshop includes a fully illustrated workbook COST: $75.00 - Preregistration is a must (Limited to 25 students for maximum learning) For more information or to register contact Lin Klaassen www.FaceReadingByLin.com 586-773-4230 __________________________________________________________________________ April 24th - Business Executives Networking Event The Business Executives Network Chapter of BNI meets at the Uptown Palladium 12 Theater located in downtown Birmingham, Michigan.
