Being on Time. This actually means showing up 5 minutes EARLY. Being early gives you time to get yourself put together and settled at your destination before your meeting.
Work Ethic. Make sure what you turn in and what you give to people is beautiful, correct, easy to read, easy to understand and that you’re doing what is necessary to impress people with your work ethic.
Show Effort. Dress up for the occasion. You all know that we make our first impression in the first 33 seconds of meeting someone. In that time, we decide how old you are, what you do for a living, and should I respect you? So, you want to show effort in being on time, how you present yourself and your work ethic.
Positive Body Language. Create and maintain eye-contact with people. Show that you are really present with them in this moment. Make sure you are looking at them – not at your phone to show that you are not distracted by other things. You want your body language to show that you care about them and what they are saying. It’s very important not to slouch and act like you are bored.
Positive Energy & Passion. Make sure that what you say is positive.
Attitude (If there is a problem, there is a solution.) Your attitude determines whether you’re part of the problem or part of the solution. Don’t be a whiner or complainer. Be FOR things not always AGAINST them.
Being Coachable. Be willing to read books, listen to CDs & DVDs, and attend seminars and retreats to continue learning and growing as a person. Show that you are really into growth and expanding yourself.
Doing extra. This is different for each person but it’s showing up and doing something a little extra, above-and-beyond what is expected.
Being prepared. Do Your Research. I just had a new coaching client that a company sent over to me yesterday for an hour and a half appointment and she had no clue who I was or why she was sent to me! I would NEVER hire this person. In fact, if anyone comes to me and doesn’t know anything about me because they didn’t go to milteer.com to find out who I am, I won’t hire them.They aren’t prepared. They know nothing about me and cannot tailor their presentation or discussion.
If you are going to meet important people, look them up on Google. Do some research on them and find something positive about them to talk about so that they know you’ve gone and done a little extra research.
Showing Gratitude & Appreciation. The reason I say that is because the world is so full of an entitlement mentality. You know, the people that think they deserve everything with no effort or gratitude. It is such a good thing to show people appreciation and gratitude. Tell them that what they’ve done in your life is valued and appreciated. Get out a card and handwrite a thank you note. We receive so many texts and emails every day that they don’t hold as much value as writing a handwritten, mailed card does.
These 10 hacks can help you earn respect and people will want to do business with you.
