First impressions are everything!
On this week’s GoalChat, Debra Eckerling talks about First Impressions with Book Marketing Mentor’s Judy Baker; Kate Paine, Standing Out Online; and Sandy Saburn, Gifted Travel Network. The panel discuses best practices for making a good first impression in person, as well as online. They also share how the second impression comes play, the "quirky facts" that help them stand out, and more.
How to Make a Good First Impression
– Sandy: Come with the right attitude
– Kate: Put effort into how you appear
– Judy: Be there to be helpful
– Judy: Don’t sell to me
– Sandy: Don’t talk down to me
To Create a Strong First Impression Online
– Kate: On LinkedIn, show your personality and make sure you use a professional photo that looks like you. Come across as a resource, not a resume: show who you are, what you do, and how you help. For the headline, include the keywords you want people to search and add a quirky fact
– Sandy: Be different, get rid of the cookie cutter phrases
– Judy: Be authentic without oversharing; don’t photoshop your life
GoalsÂ
– Judy: Always know your intention when you show up
– Sandy: Give yourself permission to be authentic, check in with yourself
– Kate: Google yourself and see what shows up. Use your linkedin to create a great first impression
Final Thoughts
– Sandy: You never know when and where you will meet amazing people
– Judy: Tell your story
– Kate: Know your slice of life story. What brought you where you are now? And use that to connect with others through the content you create
