Building Trust With Buyers & Sellers in the First 5 Minutes – March 18th, 2025

First impressions matter—buyers and sellers decide if they trust you within minutes. In this week’s BBHQ Become a Better Business Broker live stream, held on Tuesday at 9am PST / 12pm EST, we explored how to establish credibility and rapport right away.

During the session, we covered:

  • The trust-building formula – Confidence, competence, authenticity, and active listening as key factors in gaining trust.
  • Common trust-killers – How to avoid overpromising, dismissiveness, and poor first impressions.
  • The 5-minute script for success – A practical approach to setting the right tone from the very start.

Whether you’re meeting a seller for the first time or working to win over a hesitant buyer, mastering those crucial first minutes can make all the difference.
