Prospect Color Personality |

In today’s final installment of our Prospect Color Personalities series we are going to cover the final two colors: Blues and Reds.

Blues:

They are a fairly small section of the population covering only about 15% of the population. Though you probably know a large number of them, especially in the network marketing arena, because they tend to stick out just a bit.

These are you fun loving, life of the party type of people. They tend to smile and laugh a lot, and are usually loved by all.

Blues are often very stylish and they tend to attract welcomed attention. These are your sales people, entertainers, and public speakers. Always out in front of the crowd.

Strengths:

Enthusiastic, Great Promotors, Creative, Open

Weaknesses:

Talk too much, Unorganized, Poor follow-up

Because they can be a bit unorganized, make sure to have a solid system in place for them to follow so that their other skills can shine. These can be some of the best people to have on your team, so be sure to be on the lookout for them. They shouldn’t be hard to spot!

Reds:

They also make up about 15% of the population and are your more dominate, aggressive types. They are very focused and direct in everything they do, though they sometimes come off as a bit egotistical.

Though they can make wonderful leaders because they are all about getting the job done and turing a profit.

They are often loud, straight to the point, and are always dressed for success. These are your CEOs, Military ranks, attorneys, and loan officers.

Strengths:

Goal Oriented, Focused, Self-reliant

Weakness:

Impatient, Short-tempered, un-coachable

If you come across a red, realized that you really can’t close them. They make their own decisions, so give them the information and let them have at it. Also make sure you get straight to the point and forgo the chit chat. Reds simply don’t have the time or patience for it. Also remember that they are completely motivated by money and success, so keep the kumbaya stuff to yourself and you should be a-ok.

Final Thoughts:

I’m sure that by now you have realized how useful this information can be when dealing with a prospect. It’s almost like having a crystal ball at your disposal. However it also helps you to understand your own color personality so that you understand how you relate to others as well.

Now you get to go out and practice spotting people’s colors. It really is kind of fun! Though understand that we all have a bit of each color that makes up our unique personalities. The trick however, is to find the one that’s most dominate.

So put your listening hat on and start prospecting your way to success.
