Everyone
has a personality colour.
There are 4
colour personality types. Red, Blue, Green and
Yellow.
At this point, this information tells
you nothing. No worries; it didn't mean anything to
me either when I first heard about personality
colours. But man I wish I knew about this years ago,
it would have saved me a ton of aggravation.
Everybody has a
colour type. And with that colour type we act in a
certain way. Certain things are important to us. We
like to be talked to in a certain way. We like and
dislike certain things.
Take me for
example.
Let’s say you
were calling me as a potential prospect:
What if you
knew how I liked to be talked to. Knew what was
important to me. Knew what I didn't like. Knew what
I liked. Knew if I was over sensitive. Knew if I
needed support.
Knew if I would be teachable. Knew if
I was money motivated. Knew if I would be a leader.
Knew if I was creative. Knew if I needed all the
facts and figures....I could go on and on.
What if you knew all this information
and so much more about me after only talking to me (anyone)
for only a few minutes and then gained more and more
insight to me the longer you talked to me?
Do you think this would impact your
business and your personal life in a positive way?
Rhetorical question obviously
Would you not agree you'd have an
unfair advantage on everyone else? Yet another
rhetorical question.
There is a lot more to learn about
personality colours and whole books have been
written on this subject. But here is the condensed
version. This will give you great insight into the
power of personality colours.
So here we go, oh and these are not
in any particular order.
First
there is Yellow.
Yellow's make up 35% of the
population. They are open and indirect with their
feelings. They are the best at using both sides of
their brains. They are relationship and family
orientated, logical, analytical and team work is
very important to them.
Yellows have jobs like teachers,
social workers usually any nurturing job. They like
giving back to others. They don't like pushy people,
aggressiveness, sudden change or animal cruelty.
Some of their weaknesses are, they
are over sensitive, take things personally and will
buy other peoples excuses.
Talk to a yellow slowly and relaxed
and let them know they are appreciated.
Next is Blues (that's
me).
Blues make up 15% of the population.
Blues are open and direct with their feelings. Very
right brained, talk fast, very creative, must have
fun doing things. They are strong on family and
relationships, spontaneous and enthusiastic.
Blues have jobs like sales (of any
kind), singer, and songwriter, anything that is
creative. They don't like not having fun, fact and
figures and being sold.
Their weaknesses are being
unorganised, scattered and poor savers. When you
talk to a blue focus on fun and talk about
excitement. Never try to sell a blue.
Next is Greens.
Greens make up 35% of the population.
They are indirect and self-contained with their
feelings. Right brained, very logical, analytical.
Precise and need to have all the facts and figures.
They are savers. They are also organized, task
orientated and accurate. Let's get the kids to
college. They're the best negotiators.
Some of their jobs include, engineers,
accountants, CPA, professor. This covers pretty much
basically anything to do with logic and reasoning.
They don't like pushy people. Not
having all the facts and figures. Not being on time,
aggressiveness. Get depressed easily and are hard to
please.
Some of their weaknesses are, they
over analyse everything (to death) and are hard to
please and pessimistic about everything.
When speaking to a green, give them
the facts and figures, you cannot overload a green
with information.
And
finally the Reds.
Reds make up 15% of the population.
Reds are direct and self-contained with their
feelings. Reds are right brained. Their slogan is "It's
my way or the highway" Forceful, stern and to the
point. No chitchat, money is power, take action.
Task orientated, Impatient, un-teachable, show me
the money.
Their jobs consist of being CEO's,
Attorneys, military leaders, president of the bank.
Reds do not like losing control,
indecision, small talk or crying. They don't like
talking about time, freedom, family or vacations.
Some of their weaknesses are having a
big ego, domineering and un-teachable.
When you talk to a red you need to
let them think you need them. They like being sold,
close them, focus on money, stroke their ego. Talk
about your leader’s income.
Now everything I just outlined about
the different colour personalities is not a judgment
on people, it's who people are.
Just imagine if you had this
information the next time you talked to a prospect?
How do you think your next call would go?
So the next time you're talking to
someone and they say something in a certain tone or
way, you'll know exactly why they're acting the way
they are and why they are asking the questions they
do.
Instead of taking things personally
or getting frustrated, you'll say to yourself "Hey
you're suppose to act like that or say that because
you're a green" (pick a colour)
Master this one skill and your
business life and personal life will skyrocket.
Guaranteed!!!
