Question

Answer 1

Social interest has important meaning to everyone life nowadays, it’s good to have social interest in this day and age. Social interest help people to get connect over a common interest. The best way you can approach a client in developing a social interest is to give him the glimpse of how good it feels to get connected over something and find group of people who share same ideas about things as you do. Implanting ideas like these will clearly encourage people to try it once, and that’s all we want, that our client trust us and try our suggestion and if things work out well, we can start on the healing process. Nothing as such particular bugged me but I would like to think if we can stretched the timeline of it from short term to long, it will help accomplishing goal with complete success rate.
