12 Guidelines for creating Good First Impressions
Within the first few seconds of any encounter you are evaluated by the prospect. Your appearance, demeanour and body language all contribute to quickly create a first impression. This judgement happens primarily on a subconscious level and once made is extremely difficult to reverse. The prospect’s subconscious is asking the question “can I trust this person”. Follow these twelve key lessons and learn to influence this judgement in a positive way helping you to make a great first impression.
How To Make a Great First Impression
Personal grooming and the clothes we wear make an impression when we meet a person for the first time. Hopefully it's a good impression. However I don't want to talk about this aspect of making a good first impression right now. Rather, I'd like to share six tips for making a good first impression...
First Impressions
It is though that a “first impression” is created in three seconds. That is… one… two… three… impression created! In that tiny amount of time your appearance, body language, mannerisms and how you are dressed are all pieced together to form that impression. After that “first impression,” it can take hundreds of hours for the three second first impression to be changed. With odds like these, it’s important that that first impression is a good one.
More on First Impressions
Last week’s article was about first impressions and how basic personal grooming and the taking care of the clothes you wear has a positive effect on the people you meet. This week’s article is also focused on creating a great first impression, however the emphasis is on your behavior. Here are the five top tips to creating a fabulous first impression:
First Impressions
Picking up from my recent posting We'll meet again... I thought it would be worth looking at how First Impressions can impact our opinions of other people and their opinions of us. In turn first impressions can affect the desire to work together or not. Have you ever regretted a time when you didn’t make a favourable first impression? Did you wish you could have your time over again to make a more positive impression? I am sure you are not alone. We can all think of a time when we messed up. As the old saying goes: ‘You don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression’.
How To Leave A Lasting Impression
When you only have a few seconds to get noticed in this hyper-quickened audio-visual world of ours, a lasting impression typically depends upon whether or not you were noticed at all. Squeezing our focus into that first frame people see will not only determine if we leave an impression, but exactly what that impression will be.

Impact and Influence in Action – Being Nice Doesn’t Mean You’re Not Working
When working with other people I am more self-contained than interactive and my focus in decision making is more about logic than feelings. This means I’m not naturally great at small talk and some of that “getting to know you” stuff. However, I recognise that it is not enough to just start negotiating or presenting. Engagement and getting their attention is all part of creating the right impression, having a positive personal impact and being more influential. That age old “no second chance to make a good first impression” is more or less true. You can do a repair job later but it’s much much better to get it right first time. In the Hale Circle of Influence™ this element is known as Pleasantries.
