The book starts with educating its readers on how to use and control their body language and postures to good effect. For instance, as a first tip, the author asks readers not to look at a person with a big smile ready on their face. Instead, the reader is urged to look at the person, pause for a second, and then turn on a magnetic and warm smile. This will be more effective in communicating to the other person that the smile is genuine and intended for them.

Lowndes states through this book that when conversing with someone, one should turn fully to face the other person, give a nice smile, and pay full attention to them. When meeting strangers, the author asks her readers to imagine a shifting spotlight. When the introduction is over, the spotlight shifts to whoever is talking. So, when the other person starts talking, the focus shifts to them. In fact, the longer the spotlight is on the other person, the more effective the conversation will be. Parroting is a good technique that’s also covered in this book. The author explains how simply repeating the last few words spoken by the other person can put them back in the spotlight and help in carrying on the conversation. The basic idea that this book puts through is that, popular and successful people are only differentiated by their communication skills, and not by their looks or intelligence.
