1- Prepare questions and talking points. Preparing a few topics or questions before meeting someone new can help keep you on track and avoid lulls in the conversation. Think about whom you’re meeting and what you’d like to get out of the interaction
2- Dress appropriately for the occasion. People make their first judgments within 1/10 of a second. One of the first things people see is how you dress. Choose an outfit based on the context of the meeting and how comfortable you’ll feel wearing it.
3- Arrive on time or a few minutes early. When you tell someone you’ll meet them at a certain time, you’re making them a promise. Being punctual can show the other person you’re dependable, disciplined, and respectful. Leave at least 5 minutes early to allow for traffic and other obstacles out of your control.
4- Make eye contact with the other person. Matchmaker and dating expert Maria Avgitidis says that “A smile really does go a long way. It tells people that you're friendly.” Establish eye contact right before you begin talking. When listening to the other person, try to maintain eye contact for about 4 to 5 seconds at a time.
5- Remember to smile. Smiling can make you seem courteous, likable, and competent. However, don’t try to fake a smile—other people can detect when you do. Instead, visualize something that makes you happy to channel positive energy into the present moment.
6- Use body language to appear open and confident. Your body language can communicate how comfortable you feel in a situation. To look open and confident, keep your head up, stand up straight, and keep your hands visible.
7- Use small talk to find something in common. Short, casual interactions can make you and the other person happier and more likely to feel like you belong. Try to select topics that are tailored to your conversation partner—the more information you can find out about them, the more you have to talk about.
8- Be your authentic self. Whether you’re going on a date, interviewing for a new job, or meeting a potential new friend, you have so much to bring to the table. Talk about the things you like, and try to avoid pretending to be someone else.
9- Listen attentively to the other person. Most people love to talk about themselves, and actively listening can make them feel heard, understood, and respected. When someone’s talking, nod, restate what they’re saying, and try to avoid interrupting or finishing their sentences.
10 Follow up with them after you meet. If you make a great connection with someone, ask to exchange contact info and send a follow-up text or email about how nice it was to meet them.
