“I’ll do everything I can” or “I’ll do everything in my power” or “Let me know what I can do”
are really great things to say at the end of the meeting in order to look good in the moment and make it seem like there’s something generous on offer.
Similar phrases that are great to say at the end of the meeting (or the beginning, or anywhere in between) that can’t help but actually be helpful…
“Here’s what I will do for you…” or “How can I best help” or “Send me an email to remind me to do that for you”
I want to come back to one out of that first group…
“Let me know what I can do”
You can find out real quick if they’re serious (or not) by letting them know what they can do. And sometimes people really do mean it.
