Be transparent
LeaRae Keyes, RN

If you have had the news on lately you have certainly been hearing about transparency. As the investment brokers and banks have had tremendous financial crises critics are calling for greater transparency. This can be applied to your nurse entrepreneur business as well.

Transparency in your nurse entrepreneur business can mean you tell your prospective customers your intentions for the sales call. Sharing this early in the sales call will result in everyone being more comfortable.

Tell your prospective customer you are there to help them grow their business. You hope that means they will want to do business with you. If there is no fit you will respect that and move on to someone who can benefit from using your nurse entrepreneur business services.

If you are transparent they will be more likely to be transparent also. This means that they will be more likely to tell you their intention and be honest with you.

Being transparent helps build trust. As we have covered before, people buy from those they know, like, and trust. By being transparent you are beginning the process of relationship building.

Be transparent on your next sales call and observe how this affects your prospective customer.
