Intersecting with people in various situations, many want to win them over and leave a good impression. And if in an accidental encounter with a stranger this is not so important, then in business negotiations with partners it is necessary.
Instructions
Step 1
Take care of your appearance. Remember that the main thing is cleanliness and tidiness. A person may not have money for expensive outfits, but if he looks well-groomed, he initially creates a pleasant impression. If something is not taken into account (combination of things, their color, lack of purity), then the interlocutor will not hear what you say to him - he will be focused on your shortcomings.
Step 2
Smile affably. But only do it sincerely. Even the embarrassment in a sincere smile will be perceived better than feigned hypocrisy. Smiling will endear people to you and help make the environment less constrained. A light, liberating humor will also be appropriate. But, using it, be correct, take into account the situation and do not get personal.
Step 3
Concentrate on the general. When people realize that they are connected by certain moments, then they begin to trust each other more and involuntarily distinguish them from others. Such similarities can be traced in age, gender and religion, clothing style, choice of car, hobbies, and hobbies. But, having noted the link that unites you, do not focus on it too much, otherwise the interlocutor may decide that you have ulterior motives and therefore often pay attention to the similarities between you.
Step 4
Show interest. To do this, you need to learn how to ask appropriate and correct questions, as well as listen carefully to the answers to them. By doing so, you will show that you are interested in the life of the other, and not just focused on yourself. Depending on how long you have known each other, you can be interested in work, interests, goals, dreams. Remember what the interlocutor answered and, at a convenient moment, touch on this topic again - he will be pleased that you did not "deafen" his words.
Step 5
Don't push yourself. No matter how welcoming you are, there are always people who will not appreciate it. Perhaps they are preoccupied with their thoughts, feel bad, are not inclined to talk, or are simply used to keeping their distance from strangers. Therefore, if you see that your attempts are ignored or cause a negative reaction, then it is better to give up the idea of arousing sympathy in this person.
