Wouldn't it be nice to know how to have someone think admiringly of you immediately? Wouldn't it be great to make a new buddy in less than 30 minutes? Wouldn't it be super if you met someone, be it a man or woman, and you realize that you liked them instantly, you decide that you want to have them as a friend? You can do it! Just follow these steps.
Things You’ll Need:
- A nice outfit or a neat and clean outfit.
- A winning smile.
- Knowing the same people.
- Business Cards, if possible.
- A good "Farewell" exit.
step 1:A Nice Outfit
When you meet someone for the first time, and you feel drawn to them as a friend or for whatever reason, you would want that person to at least notice you and have a calm feeling about you. When you wear nice clothes, or at least very neat and clean clothes, and you look friendly, your chances are good that the person may open up to you.
I am very attracted to people that smile. I can't help myself. I feel like they have a beautiful life when they sport a smile. If you would like to win someone over in a short amount of time, bring on your best sincere smile. Make it warm, not fake. Make your eyes twinkle with your smile. Keep your eyes focused on that person and present yourself if possible. Say something like, "How are you today?" or "How are you? Do I know you?" If they say something like, "I don't believe so," you can immediately introduce yourself.
step 3:Knowing the Same People
A great way to grab their attention is to ask them about kindred. If their last name is Doe, say something like, "Are you related to John Doe, the gentleman that owns that fruit market (or whatever business they have). When you do something like this, it is a compliment - it lets the person know you are interested in being their friend.
step 4:Keep Business Cards Handy
Keep a business card handy. This is a way for them to remember you. It is also great if you can bring up subjects to find out what the person is interested in. Whatever it is that you both are interested in say, "You like that too? That's great! I know how you feel" Then try to think of a quick story or incident that goes with whatever that person's hobby or job is. Keep the smile on your face.
step 5:The FarewellThe farewell should be memorable. If you feel the vibe is great, extend your hand to them gently, and say, "Gee (Theier name), it was such a pleasure meeting you. I certainly hope we meet again! If you need anything, here's my card. Give me a call! It was great meeting you!"
Please know that all circumstances will be different when meeting new people. Also, you may see someone that you would like to get to know as a person, but they might not be interested in meeting anyone at that time. In these cases it is best not to force an issue. Party settings or social gatherings are good usually when meeting someone or introducing yourself to someone. Sometimes you can meeting someone even in the grocery store, it just all depends on certain circumstances, like time of day or evening for example. Please go with your gut feeling. If a person looks or acts like they don't want to be bothered, it's best to leave them alone. Good luck friend, and thanks for reading!
