Be Memorable

We all want to create a lasting impression on other people when we are networking. It is possible because it is something that is not written in our genes but we can definitely learn it. First of all when someone is talking to you, be all there. This means that you should not be checking your phone or mobile applications. It will make the other person feel important and valued and that can make all the difference. When you are talking, make sure that everything you say is positive and stay away from complaining. It will help and the person you are speaking with in the long run. Another great way to make an impression is to remember the name of the person you are speaking with and use it in the conversation. It is like a subtle compliment and says that they are worth talking to. Body language is also part of the conversation if not most of it. Make sure to be aware of how you are standing and that you are making eye contact.
