Business Etiquette Tips
9 Feb 7 Comments
At several recent meetings I noticed some common business etiquette mistakes people make. These are a few tips I have for everyone out there:
Tip #1 : Wear nametags on your right side. Since most people shake your right hand, it is easier for people to covertly scan for your name if positioned on the right.
Tip #2 : Remember names. It looks bad on your part to repeatedly ask for a name when you have met the person over and over again. Still having trouble? Try using the their name three times during a conversation. Once when you first meet them, once during the conversation and once when you both depart.
Tip #3 : Carry business cards, everywhere. If you are still writing your phone number on used paper napkins, get some business cards made. VistaPrint.com is a great place to start. Whipping out a simple business card with your name, phone number and email looks oh-so professional.
nvr thought of the nametag thing, good call
Us there name regularly so you do remember it. If you do forget be honest and just ask as this displays integrity.
