THE SUPERPOWER OF READING PEOPLE

The Art of Non Visual Communication

What is Non-Visual Communication?

Straight from the highly acclaimed book which has amassed more than fifty, 5-star reviews on Amazon, Phone Genius uses a different concept. 

It explains why we often find it harder to communicate over the phone than we do face to face, what technology does to break rapport with our clients, and how we can overcome all of those things. Phone Genius focus’ on ‘The Art of Non-visual Communication’.

Using real-life examples spanning over twenty years of Michelle’s personal success, Michelle’s concepts are developed from her own experience, realisation and training of her team whilst running her first company, a multi-award-winning new business generation agency, who did all their work by telephone.

Michelle has taught people how to get through to, engage with, and book appointments with those holding the highest positions within some of the most renowned companies in the world using non visual communication. These include the Marketing Director of Microsoft, the VP of Global Marketing at Sony Ericsson, Senior Directors at Texaco, Vauxhall Finance, and GSK.

Working in many varied environments, Michelle’s ability to increase people’s success when communicating on the phone is consistent across all fields because it is about developing the person, not the sales script!

How Phone Genius will help your non visual communication

Phone Genius is a Transformation Programme (over 3 months), a keynote speech, a workshop and a highly acclaimed book.

Phone Genius is an insight into non visual communication and the development of personal communication skills.

Essentially, Phone Genius gives you the tools to enable you to project your personality as if you were in the same room, and build as much rapport over the phone as you would face to face.

As a very successful species that relies predominantly on complicated visual processes, we often overlook the incredible abilities that our other senses bring to the communication process.

When we communicate on the phone, we are stripped of our visual senses. 

Successful phone communicators naturally switch their hearing to a different setting, accessing a level that we simply do not use in face-to-face situations. This is a sub-conscious process that we can learn to do automatically through practice.

Phone Genius explores how people who are great on the phone use their hearing and their voice more effectively. 

It looks at technology and its effects on our ability to build rapport, and then it discusses ways of overcoming that the disadvantages that are inherent in non-visual communication. It also gives us ways of recognizing language patterns and behavior in order to build rapport and create really successful relationships.

The results of Phone Genius training are not just vastly improved results, but massively increased confidence and purpose. It is especially effective for people working in the fields of proactive relationship building, such as Business Development, High-Level Account Management, and Customer Care.

The most effective in-house Phone Genius courses start with two intensive training days, which are then supported with one to one sessions and practice workshops until these new techniques become second nature. Depending upon the size of the group, these programmes usually span three months with twelve interaction days.

Michelle supplied the Phone Genius training to Orion Media, and – wow – what an impact. We saw Account Managers who were consistently underperforming start hitting and exceeding their targets, and a new energy in the teams that hadn’t been seen for a while.​

Phone Genius training was invaluable. Michelle really makes you think, evaluate and action what you learn. Even being in business for over 20 years I still find I need to sharpen my phone skills, Michelle took me to the next level. The training was not regurgitated textbook but based on experience and solid research, which is why it was effective and gave me the results I needed. Anyone selling anything cold or otherwise or just representing their company by using a phone or taking a call would benefit from this training. Highly recommended.

I received Phone Genius training from Michelle and it was fantastic! Unlike other training courses I found it incredibly easy to get involved and the lessons will stick with me and help me for the rest of my career. By bringing in real life examples and tying them to my role i was able to emphasise and absorb a staggering amount of information over just a few days of training. I would absolutely recommend anyone looking for training for a customer facing team to strongly consider Michelle!

Michelle taught me how to be myself and gave me confidence in speaking on the phone to senior directors in large organisations, she filled me with confidence and really believed in me. Six years on we are still the best of friends and to this day I still work alongside Michelle on various projects. I now have a very successful business that I implement Michelle’s influence daily to help me overcome my speaking on the phone. This year we worked together for a month on a few calls that I felt that was impossible to get appointments at so I gave Michelle the challenge…. did she get me in front of the right people? of course she did! did these prospects become customers? of course they did! it has made a drastic change to my turnover and my business. I could not fault anything Michelle has done for me and am so happy with the work we have carried out together. Look forward to our next project Michelle.
