How to make a good first impression?
Making a good impression is very important for building relationships with the other one. It might be decided the success of the conversation. Why it is, then, so many people in bussiness and everyday life seem to be clueless as to the important at making a first good impression. Wherther intentional or not, there is no excuse for blowing a first bussiness meeting with someone. They might not want to do bussiness with you anymore.
We almost meet people that we instantly want to get to know more, some people follows few basic roles to make their first impression a strong one. I got some tips of making a good impression that i want to show you...But it's really good if you give me some ideas.
1. Dress to impress
We've all heard too much about this old saying. But it's timeless for a reason.
The key here is dress modestly(giản dị) and approciately with your meeting that you intend to be attended .There no need to wear the latest model suit. But, make sure that your clothing is clean and fits well. The last thing you want is to give off a negative impression before you even open your mouth. If you look sloppy ['slɔpi](luộm thuộm) , people will assume that you and your bussiness are sloppy as well.
2 . Speak clearly
This point cannot be emphasized['emfəsaiz](Nhấn mạnh) enough. Be sure to communicate clearly with the people you are meeting. Few things are more annoying than having to listen to someone without understanding what they are saying because they garble['gɑ:bl](nuốt từ) their words.
Focus on speaking at a moderate['mɔdərit](vừa phải) pace[peis](nhịp độ) with a well-modulated(lên xuống giọng) voice. Do not be afraid to enunciate[i'nʌnsieit](phát âm) properly. Also, using proper grammar when speaking and avoiding slang[slæη](tiếng lóng) is expected if you are to make a good first impression. Remember: If people can't comprehend what you are saying, they will disregard[,disri'gɑ:d](coi nhẹ) you. Furthermore, be polite and courteous['kə:tjəs](nhã nhặn) at all times.
3. Use the person's name
If you remember the person's name that show you were paying attention from the very beginning and that you give them enough importance to memorize their name.
4. Avoid jokes
Humor is generally good thing. A simple joke can do wonders to lighten the atmosphere and set the mood for the gathering. Unfortunately , if you do not careful, then, the effect will be opposite.
Maybe the other one will think of you as a clown and you're also not respect them enough. it might be end up everything.
If you don't have a sense of humor, don't try to make any jokes. Avoiding jokes during the first encounter[in'kauntə](gặp) is the safe bet. But anyway, If you really must make a wisecrack['waizkræk](lém lỉnh), go with something short and conservative so as to not offend[ə'fend](xúc phạm) anyone.
5. Be a good listener.
It's very important to make a good impression. Make sure to let him know in clever manner that you're paying attention to what is being said. Don't be afraid to say somethings like "I see", "yes, i understand" ...that shows the other person that you are indeed listening attentively .Also, feel free to ask questions if you are unsure of what the other person is trying to communicate.
Finally, do not interrupt when someone else is speaking. Interrupting someone in mid-sentence is extremely rude and will count as one strike against you in just about any social setting.
6. Let the other person be the center of attention
Ask the other person about himself . You will not only appear to be gracious, but you will also learn more about the person you are dealing with. Pay close attention to the conversation; those little details may be useful in the future
i really appreciate your comments and suggestions . Give me your ideas about making a first good impression. Thanks all
