What's your tactic?
We've all had that horrible first impression experience, whether you've been on the "nailed it" side or the "noooooo" side. From bad breath to being caught with your zipper down, a joke gone wrong or the inevitable veggie stuck between your teeth, we've all experienced a first impression gone wrong.
Tooth. Brush. Mouth.Wash.
As most of you know, first impressions are everything and they can make or break a potential new relationship (work, friend, adoption, significant other, etcetera). They tend to leave a lasting image engraved in our minds.

First impressions are the reason why we worry so much about looking, speaking and acting our best when initially meeting someone. There are many tactics to approach the influential first impression.
The soft technique I like to use most often is inspirational appeals.
- Inspirational Appeals
- building enthusiasm by appealing to others' emotions, ideals, or values
There are 3 general outcomes after you meet someone new.
- Commitment - Exchanging phone numbers, Instagram, Snap Chat info. "Let's go shopping next week!"
- Compliance - Passively accepting an invitation to get together again. "Yea, we should meet up again."
- Resistance - You're breath met me at GOOD BYE!
It's especially important to feel a connection with someone. By giving someone a compliment or showing interest in their life I'm able to build a solid foundation for a new relationship based on genuine kindness and inspirational appeals. Assuming I don't plummet and eat dirt.
