问题     Making a good first impression is important for building relationships with other people. In business networking, a positive first impression is crucial for forging profitable, sustainable, long-term partnerships to help build business and keep them thriving.
    First Impression Tips;
    Dress to Impress
    We’ve all heard this old saying, but it does hold a good amount of truth. Although today’s business environment is much more casual than it was even 10 years ago, it is still important to dress the part.
    The key here is to dress modestly and appropriately for the gathering you will be attending. There is no need to wear the latest Brioni suit, but do 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, people will assume that your business is running sloppy way as well.
    Speak Clearly
    I can’t emphasize this point 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 their words.
    Focus on speaking at a moderate pace in a well-modulated voice. Do not be afraid to enunciate properly. Also, using proper grammar when speaking and avoiding slang is expected if you are to make a good first impression. Remember; If people can’t comprehend what you are saying, they will disregard you and your organization. Furthermore, be polite and courteous at all times.
    Be a Good Listener
    Being a good listener is not as complicated as most people think it is. When having a discussion with someone, make sure to let him know in a subtle manner that you are paying attention to what is being said.
    Don’t be afraid to nod your head and chime in with the occasional "I see" or "I understand" , or any other verbal cue 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. Proper etiquette is suggested at all times.
