Price per Head Bookie Tips: Understanding Body Language

Understanding body language is very important for you as a price per head bookie as it helps you to improve your negotiating skills.

This is because body language allows you to recognize key signs such as boredom, nervousness, and resistance, among others.

And of course, it also allows you to signal your own positive message to others.

 

Price per Head Bookie: Two Languages

 

Additionally to the words that you express orally, there is another important language that many times is taken for granted: silent language, or body language.

There are four main parts of the body that people utilizes to send, and receive body language messages:

  • Eyes and Face
  • Hands and Arms
  • Feet and Legs
  • Posture and Torso

 

Face

Most body language messages are easier to perceive in a person’s face, and the reason is because this is the area of the body that individuals tend to notice the most.

This can be easily appreciated in poker players, whom hide their real feelings under a non-expressive facial mask, or “poker face” and sunglasses (because they can’t avoid their pupils to expand when they open an outstanding hand).

 

Rest of the Body

There is a general rule concerning body language for the areas of the body other than the face:

  • Crossed arms, legs and feet, or what is known as closed positions, is a clear sign of resistance.
  • Open arms, legs and feet, on the other hand, indicate receptivity.

Now, the torso is a bit trickier to read due to the fact that seating positions and posture is a thing of individual habit. Plus when you are in a meeting related to your sports betting operation, it is difficult to read other’s torsos because people are seated behind a table.

 

Main Tasks

As a price per head bookie negotiator, you have 2 main tasks:

  • Make sure that both your body language and your verbal language are in tune. If you want to express a message that benefits your bookmaking business, then consistency between your words and your body signs is essential.
