			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Want to make a good first impression?</strong></p>
<p>In life it is important to know how to get along with others and in a business or social setting.  When going for a bank loan, meeting a new person in business or socially, or visiting family or friends.  When you make a presentation the rules are always the same. </p>
<p>“A first impression is of GREAT value if the follow-up is always there!”</p>
<p> Please try these simple effective ideas.  </p>
<p><strong><em>Smile, smile, smile &amp; dress for the occasion</em></strong>**</p>
<ol>
<li>ALWAYS  be prepared…. for anything.</li>
<li>“Up your positive mental attitude.”</li>
<li>Make up your mind you won’t be miss-directed.</li>
<li>Control your environment.  Look people in the eye!</li>
<li>Always opt for better speaking, thinking and above all</li>
<li>Listen, listen, listen! Focus on the person speaking.</li>
<li>Don’t interrupt others when they have the floor.</li>
<li>Always thank your host and give others credit.</li>
<li>Try to be as accurate as you can in all you say. Keep it simple.</li>
<li>Don’t talk and have side conversations when someone else has the floor. </li>
</ol>
<p>“A first impression is of Great value if the service after the sale is really there.</p>
<p>  Virtual service is of not much value. People prefer REAL Service they can qualify. </p>
<p>“A first impression is of great value if your marriage vows are kept.</p>
<p>** Affairs of state and funerals one should not smile, or frown but maintain decorum.</p>
<p>**<strong><em>The benefit – You will be remembered!</em></strong></p>
<p>                      You will be known for your integrity and great people skills.</p>
<p>                      You will be considered a better person for improving your personal                 </p>
<p>                       skills. </p>
<p><em>Taken by Frank Ryan from notes at a company function in the mid 1960’s. Personal conduct and ethics are very important. These points still have value today!  Frank says “ Roberts Rules of Order are still valid, and should be mandatory study for all persons who lead or speak in public and corporate life.”</em></p>
