About this listen

"You'll not only break the ice, you'll melt it away with your new skills." -Larry King

"The lost art of verbal communication may be revitalized by Leil Lowndes." -Harvey McKay, author of How to Swim with the Sharks Without Being Eaten Alive

What is that magic quality that makes some people instantly loved and respected? Everyone wants to be their friend (or, if single, their lover). In business, they rise swiftly to the top of the corporate ladder. What is their “Midas touch?”

What it boils down to is a more skillful way of dealing with people.

The author has spent her career teaching people how to communicate for success. In her book How to Talk to Anyone, Lowndes offers 92 easy and effective sure-fire success techniques - she takes the listener from first meeting all the way up to sophisticated techniques used by the big winners in life. In this information-packed audiobook you’ll find:

  • 9 ways to make a dynamite first impression
  • 14 ways to master small talk, “big talk,” and body language
  • 14 ways to walk and talk like a VIP or celebrity
  • 6 ways to sound like an insider in any crowd
  • 7 ways to establish deep subliminal rapport with anyone
  • 9 ways to feed someone’s ego (and know when NOT to!)
  • 11 ways to make your phone a powerful communications tool
  • 15 ways to work a party like a politician works a room
  • 7 ways to talk with tigers and not get eaten alive

In her trademark entertaining and straight-shooting style, Leil gives the techniques catchy names so you’ll remember them when you really need them, including: “Rubberneck the Room,” “Be a Copyclass,” “Come Hither Hands,” “Bare Their Hot Button,” “The Great Scorecard in the Sky,” and “Play the Tombstone Game,” for big success in your social life, romance, and business.

How to Talk to Anyone, which is an update of her popular book, Talking the Winner's Way (see the 5-star reviews of the latter) is based on solid research about techniques that work!

By the way, don't confuse How to Talk to Anyone with one of Leil's previous books, How to Talk to Anybody About Anything. This one is completely different!

A Great Communication Manual

I enjoyed every second of this audiobook. The tricks and hints you get from this book are very practical and easy to apply.
I have tested some already and can confirm they are well worth following because they work like magic.
Leil Lowndes makes it fun such that it looks like you are listening to a storybook but leaning deep secret communication rules at the same time. Thank you, Leil.
I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a proven and tested method on communicating like a big hitter. I am glad I bought this book.
The information and learning packed into these 92 tricks is priceless.

Carnegie's book was much better

Carnegie was so much better. This book feels a bit opinionated and lacks proof and studies.

Obvious and too simplistic

Obvious and too simplistic advice aimed at American audience based on anecdotal evidence - lackcs scientific evidence or any sort of sublime

Nice voice to listen to

Some nice stories but feel it was lacking real substance for me. Perhaps I couldn’t relate as well, being British, when this was clearly aimed at US market.

Great insight from this book

another book I didn't finish.

as per the other comments I got about half way through and then it turned into a series of too obvious and non applicable things for me.

still got a ton of value though!

first half is good
