When it comes to selling in agriculture, itâs not just what you sayâitâs how you say it that makes the difference.
In this episode of Selling in the Paddock, I break down the four key communication stylesâVisual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, and Audio Digitalâand how understanding them can completely shift the way you connect with growers, stores, and your own sales team.
We explore:
What each style looks and sounds like in the field
Why using the wrong style can cost you trust (and the sale)
How to tailor your pitch to each communication preference
Real-life examples of how to adapt your style without feeling fake
How this links to the work of MihĂĄly CsĂkszentmihĂĄlyi, the Hungarian psychologist behind the concept of âflowâ
Plus, Iâll share tips for spotting your own natural communication styleâand how to flex it based on who youâre speaking to.
