It is always a great idea to get in your best mood when you are about to call your leads. Get excited by doing some daily rituals. It is said that people judge you by the sound of your voice in the first 2-3 seconds and will automatically make a decision in those seconds whether they like you or not. If they have made a decision that you sound boring, and plain out dead nothing will make them change their mind to join you. They want someone who is excited, great posture and trustworthy.

What I do for 5-10 minutes before calling leads is I watch funny youtube videos. (Specially funny dog videos) or I put really loud music and start dancing like if I was a rock star signing in front of thousands of people, it gets me in a really happy mood.

When I do this I have better conversations with prospects and when I make mistakes I usually laugh it off and most of the time they laugh with me. It is always great having some kind of bond with your leads like laughing besides asking them questions.

So here goes a question for you, what do you do before calling leads or what is something you can begin doing to get yourself in the best mood?

Try this it sure helped me

I close my eyes for 2 minutes and imagine the high I usually feel when I have talked to a prospect in the past and have helped him/her make a difference in his business or marketing..

I don't have too much phone experience, a little but not much, I get most signups from Facebook and Twitter directly. But I agree mood is everything, you need to be someone people want to be around.

I agree, Whitney.
Happy people attract other people who wants to be around them.
Sometimes you just can't tell someone, you also have to be able to show them the benefits of what you are doing. Once your warm market connects with you, they can see your energy and will want to join you with that great feeling as well. Talking with them would be a lot easier. You already have their attention!

Hi Erika,

Great post!

Our prospects can sense our mood on the other side of the phone. I make sure to smile - our voice sounds differently when we are in a happy and relaxed mood. I also gather my thought to make sure that I concentrate on the thought of "How can I help this prospect?" Our prospects hear our sincerity as well.

I have just watched Tom Challan's video. He talked about reserving our energy to focus on the important tasks. Jeffrey Combs talks about selling as marketing our energy! Having a positive mindset and good mood definitely help

Yeah, you can sense their smile too, it is always good to have the right mindset of getting over yourself and actually have the sincerity of helping people. People can feel whether you are the person that can help them with their problems even through the phone.
