success skills Jun 26, 2024

Ever send a monster text message only to be met with crickets? You're not alone! Long, confusing texts can overload your recipient and kill your response rate. There's a better way to communicate! Text Parking is a game-changer for clearer, more efficient business texting. Keep reading to learn this actionable tip and transform your texting game!

Text Parking: The "One Question at a Time" Approach to Texting

We've all been there: composing a text message that feels like writing a novel. The problem? Information overload. Your recipient is likely scanning your text, not reading it.

Text Parking is the solution. Here's how it works:

  1. Ask One Question: Craft a clear, concise question in your first text.
  2. Text Park Your Next Question: Compose your follow-up question(s), but don't send them yet! Think of it as "parking" the questions in your text box.
  3. Wait for a Response: Send your initial question and wait for your recipient's reply.
  4. Respond & Un-Park: Once they respond, un-park your next question(s) based on their answer.

Why Text Parking Works:

  • Reduced Information Overload: By asking one question at a time, you avoid overwhelming your recipient.
  • Increased Clarity: Focused questions lead to clearer communication and better understanding.
  • Improved Response Rates: People are more likely to respond to simple, actionable questions.
