the girl eats a lot of cheese

The little green owl lied to me.

Turns out my 60 day mini Duolingo streak didn't exactly revive my command of the French language during my last hurrah trip to Paris this week.

The last time I really spoke (passably bad) French was during my semester abroad in Luxembourg.

Sounds fun, but my host family padlocked the fridge and relegated me to the sketchy bathroom in their dank basement. Let's just say I don't have the fondest memories.

This trip my friend and I vowed to use our French as much as possible.

But really, how often am I going to use the phrase "the girl eats a lot of cheese?"

My friend was vegan. I could've used a few more relevant expressions in my back pocket.

Same thing goes when you're looking to build relationships.

Knowing exactly what to say (and how to say it) could make all the difference when you're trying to get someone to say yes.

My friend Selena Soo has spent years mastering the art of relationship-building and to celebrate the launch of her new book, Rich Relationships,* she's giving away her best scripts.

Download these essential done-for you scripts* and use them in text, emails and conversations to smartly:

Introduce yourself and explain what you do.
