Shape Queries As Yes or No Questions to Get Answers From Busy People

Take control of your projects and empower others to quickly respond to your queries by phrasing them as a yes or no question. This method keeps other people’s busy schedules from degrading your productivity.

In the same way that asking a busy person for a short meeting makes them more appropriate for you , phrasing your requests so that they can make a quick decision (or respond without waiting for them to get back to the computer) means that they are more likely to contact you. This may mean that more work is required on your part – for example, suggesting specific ways to work with them right away. You can always get their opinion as soon as you walk through the door with their initial reaction and interest. More tips on how to connect with busy people can be found in the full post at the link below.
