Make First Impressions Count

Tip 24 - Make First Impressions Count
(from the book 29% Solution by Dr Ivan Misner and Michelle Donovan)

People who meet you for the first time are judging you, whether you want them to or not. When you're meeting people for the first time, radiate confidence, demonstrate integrity, and begin to earn their trust. This will demonstrate your professionalism & enhance your chances of being welcomed into their network. Focusing on helping the other person helps ensure that you make a positive & powerful first impression.

"Silence is one of the great arts of conversation." - Philanthropist, Hanna More
