Watch my short video on the 5 Types of Questions as a welcome gift.

Did you know there are different types of questions? Annoyingly, we often default to the question type that doesn't actually help move us towards our goal.

Take a few moments to watch my short video and you'll learn a few of the different types so you can be more conscious of your speaking habits and bring the correct question type to the situation at hand.

Do share this video with the rest of your team to help them make the same change - it's my little thank you for having you join my mailing list.

Below is the description, as provided by Glenn:

Most of us have had the experience of calling a medical office or any other business and felt disappointed at how the person at the other end answered the call and how the conversation went.

Sometimes, it feels more like an interrogation than a conversation, like a drill sergeant talking to a recruit.

Yet this is our first impression of the business, and probably the last one.

A new patient call is a great opportunity to make a lasting first impression and have a conversation that leads to a relationship.

The phone call sets the tone for a new patient's experience in your practice.

But most of us are getting it wrong, even those who think their team is doing it right.

Today on the podcast, I have one of the best communication consultants in our profession.

She is a trainer, coach, and president of Communicate Excellence who has helped many practices, including mine, drastically improve their communication.

Amy's approach to communication, from phone to patient experience inside your practice, is truly amazing.

How does she do it?
