You're making mistakes with your first impression that you can't see.

And when these mistakes happen,

it doesn't make you forgettable.

It makes you incorrectly memorable.

And because of a bad first impression,

you now spend every future interaction trying to correct it.

My name's Vin.

I'm an international keynote speaker and communication coach.

Over the last decade, I've met a lot of people.

And this is what I've come to realize.

It only takes your brain a tenth of a second to form a read on someone

when you meet them for the first time.

And before they've even said anything,

your brain has already decided who they are.

Now imagine when someone meets you.

What first impressions are you creating without you even realising?

I'm going to show you what each one of these five components look like in order,

and the exact behaviour to replace it with.

This doesn't just apply to networking,

it applies to whenever you're meeting anybody for the first time.

Component number one, how you walk into a room.

Most people walk into a room and the first thing they do is,

they find something to look at that isn't another person.

They look at their phone,

they look at the ceiling,

anywhere but the actual person.

Your brain often defaults to making yourself small,

which forces you to close yourself off with closed posture.

But what does this signal to the people in the room?

Well, it tells them that you lack confidence in yourself.

You don't think that you belong in that room and you have low status.

And without you saying even a single word,

people have already made those judgments,

whether they're true or whether they're not.

So how do you fix this?

I call this the doorway reset.

And it's something that I've learned from one of my theatre coaches back in the day.

He said to me, then your posture introduces you before your words do.

So every single time you're about to walk through any doorframe, readjust your posture.

Because when you enter a new room,

you're creating a new impression.

And I've just anchored this in my mind anytime I walk through a doorframe.

And I want you to anchor this into your mind as well.

before you walk through any door frame, readjust your posture.

Stand tall, shoulders down and back,

and the center of your head,

imagine a piece of string pulling it nice and high.

Then walk into the room.

And just this tiny shift makes you not only look more confident,

but when you introduce yourself and you speak,

you'll sound more confident as well.

Because your body is connected to your voice,

and your voice is connected to your body.

Now you're in.

But the next mistake usually happens in the first 10 seconds of meeting someone new and it can make or break relationships.

Component number two, remembering their name.

This happens to all of us,

and it goes a little something like this.

Yo, Vin, what's up, man?

What's up, Vin?

Good to see you, buddy.

Champ.

Man.

It's good to see you.

Oh, Andy.

Andy, oh, dude.

You're gonna have to help me out, brother.

I forgot the guy's name.

Help me.

I got you, man.

Hey, name's Andy.

Nice to meet you, man.

What's your name?

I'm gonna let this guy introduce me because he used to do it to me all the time in university Yeah,

I I have no idea who the you are man.

Oh Man, I hate situations like that.

Oh my gosh Now look the common advice

that you would often hear people say is

if you want to remember people's names Just repeat their names in the first minute of you talking to them

and that helps with memory now That does work

But you've got to be really subtle about that

because you don't want to be like hey Craig nice to meet you Craig Craig what are you doing these days?

Craig, how are you?

Craig, again, that's just going to be weird if you do that.

You need more than just this strategy.

And here's what I like to do.

And it's something I rarely hear people talk about.

And I've used this technique to remember the names of my students at my workshops,

and even recall the names of people I've met years ago.

It's a very powerful technique.

And it's called name association.

When someone tells you their name,

immediately attach something to that name to make it more memorable.

It could be a unique physical feature or a quality about that person.

It could be an alliteration, a rhyme, an exaggeration.

Something that your brain can grab onto.

And the more silly or vivid or wild the association actually is,

the easier it is to remember their name.

So if I met a bloke named Michael,

100

and the first thing I noticed about him is

101

that he's got arms the size of my head then I'm

102

immediately going to be thinking That's massive Michael with Vin shaped biceps.

103

So I imagine in my head little Vin heads around his arms It's a freaky picture,

104

but that's how I remember massive Michael and for example

105

if I meet someone named Sarah

106

and I notice She's always smiling now in my brain She's smiley Sarah

107

and one more example

108

if I was trying to remember Craig's name who's here with

109

me right now in the studio He's always behind the camera

110

so then I would call him Craig the camera camel Why camel?

111

Well because the guy doesn't drink water.

112

He never drinks water and he always drinks beers Actually, I'll rename him.

113

He's gonna be Craig the alcoholic See now I'm never gonna forget Craig's name

114

because I've forever associated his name with alcohol Okay jokes aside.

115

Can you see what I'm doing here?

116

The more of a stronger association you can create with

117

that person whether it's with a physical feature or a play on words or a or a combination of both,

118

then it's easier for you to recall their name.

119

And if you use this technique just two to three times,

120

it will lock their name into your memory for good.

121

Now this is what you shouldn't do.

122

You should not tell Big Nose Barry what his alliteration is.

123

Some of these descriptions are not appropriate for public consumption.

124

This is purely an internal filing system that you have just in your own head.

125

Because like I said earlier,

126

the more vivid the exaggeration, the better the connection the more you'll remember it.

127

So keep this to yourself.

128

So why are we going to so much effort to remember somebody's name?

129

Well, because somebody's name, it's the sweetest sound that they can hear.

130

It shows that you're attentive and it makes people feel valued and it deepens your connection with them more than you realize.

131

When someone says your name 20 minutes after you've introduced yourself,

132

even though you've only said it once,

133

doesn't it make you feel seen?

134

Doesn't it make you feel special?

135

Alright, now you've got their name.

136

You're in the conversation.

137

But when you actually open your mouth,

138

this is where it often falls apart for a lot of people.

139

Component number three, how to use your voice.

140

When you think about making a good first impression,

141

what's the first thing that comes to your mind?

142

It's probably how you look.

143

Your outfit, your hair, your glasses, your shoes, right?

144

This is visual image.

145

But here's what nobody teaches you, unfortunately.

146

A great first impression is made up of two parts.

147

Your visual image and then also your vocal image.

148

Most people only focus on their visual image.

149

Again, that's how you look,

150

that's how you use your body language,

151

what you wear, etc. But rarely do they think about their vocal image,

152

which is how they sound.

153

Here's the crazy part.

154

You can buy your visual image.

155

You can buy the watch,

156

you can buy the glasses,

157

the nice shirt, but you can't buy your vocal image.

158

Your ability to communicate well,

159

that's something that has to be earned.

160

Most people spend 20 minutes trying to look good before they leave the house in the morning.

161

But when was the last time you spent 20 minutes trying to sound good?

162

Because you can have a strong visual image,

163

but the moment you open your mouth and you reveal your vocal image,

164

people are creating perceptions about your level of authority,

165

your level of status, credibility,

166

and whether or not they can trust you, how friendly you are.

167

All of this is made in an instant the moment you open your mouth and reveal the vocal image.

168

So what does your vocal image reveal about you, without you even realising?

169

If you're just sitting there thinking,

170

alright, but how do I actually get better at this?

171

The first step isn't to start applying random communication tips you find on the internet to yourself

172

and hope that it makes you a better communicator.

173

No, you don't do this.

174

The first step is self-awareness.

175

And why is this the first step?

176

Because when you identify what your communication blind spots are,

177

then you can apply the right behavior changes that are specific to you,

178

not just random tips, because random tips get random results.

179

And what I'm about to recommend here,

180

I know most of you are not going to do,

181

But to the top 5% who are going to apply this,

182

it's going to feel uncomfortable.

183

I know it's going to feel uncomfortable.

184

However, if you lean in and do it,

185

it's going to change the way you communicate forever.

186

Are you ready?

187

It's for you to record a video of yourself speaking to camera.

188

I know, it's so scary, man.

189

I don't want to do it.

190

Come on, mate, just do it.

191

You need to see yourself the way others see you when you communicate.

192

Otherwise, you never get to see yourself from a different perspective.

193

You never get to see yourself because you're always looking at yourself through the lens of your own eyes.

194

This is going to give you a lens outside looking at you.

195

This is what helps you develop the self-awareness.

196

So open up your camera app on the phone,

197

set your phone on a tripod or a table,

198

use the back camera so that you don't see yourself while you're doing this,

199

otherwise you're gonna get all self-conscious.

200

Hit record and then start talking.

201

It has to be unscripted.

202

Now, what am I gonna talk about Vin if it's unscripted? here's a simple solution.

203

I want you to just go to AI

204

and ask it to prompt you between five to ten questions that cause you to self-reflect,

205

that force you to get to know yourself better.

206

You might as well make the content of this video something that's going to help you in your life.

207

It's going to reveal your non-functional behaviours

208

and it's also going to help you dig deeper into who you are as a human being.

209

A very important piece of information here,

210

this video that you're recording needs to go for at least five to ten minutes.

211

Why?

212

Because we need a large sample size of how you currently communicate

213

so that we can tease out all of those non-functional behaviors.

214

Once you've got this video,

215

you must leave the video.

216

Don't watch it.

217

Leave it for 24 hours.

218

We are way too judgmental.

219

And if you watch it straight away,

220

you're not going to be able to continue the rest of the process as effectively as you can,

221

because you will think to yourself,

222

oh, I don't like the way I look.

223

Oh, I don't like the way I sound.

224

Leave it for 24 hours.

225

Create some separation.

226

And once you have the video,

227

24 hours later, you now have the perfect material to go

228

and do a deep analysis on your visual image and your vocal image.

229

And I don't have time to go through the complete process here,

230

but I have created a free guide.

231

It's a three-part video course designed to help you do exactly this.

232

So if you want to learn exactly how to identify your non-functional behaviors that you need to focus on and work on,

233

just click the link in the description and access the free training there to help you develop that awareness.

234

Or you can scan the QR code on screen too.

235

It's completely free and it'll take you no more than 45 minutes to complete the process.

236

Look, I need to hammer this point home.

237

You can focus on your visual image all you want,

238

but that's only 50% of the puzzle.

239

So really start to master your vocal image paired with great visual image,

240

and now you're going to create the best first impression every time.

241

Component number four, what you say.

242

So you've walked in the room with presents,

243

you've locked in their name,

244

you've shown up with a strong vocal image.

245

Now comes the part most people get wrong.

246

They think making a first grade impression is all about being impressive.

247

It's not.

248

Most people walk into a conversation thinking,

249

what do I say next?

250

How do I sound?

251

Do they like me?

252

It's me, me, me, me, me, me, me.

253

And the moment your attention goes there, you stop being present.

254

Think about the people who you've met,

255

who've left a mark on you,

256

who've left a great impression on you.

257

When you met them, were they doing something different?

258

Did they listen more than they spoke?

259

Think about those interactions.

260

These people always look out for the small details,

261

the threads

262

that they can pull on to get to know you better

263

as a person in other words they're interested in you they're

264

not always putting the focus on themselves i have a friend named fong

265

and everybody loves to be around him and fong

266

if you're watching this hey brother look at you you've made

267

it into one of my youtube videos what a privilege for you brother

268

but you see the thing about fong is

269

that people love being around him not for the main reasons why you think he's not

270

that charismatic he's not the loudest and he's not even

271

that funny yeah fong you're not that funny

272

but you know what he's really good at he's amazing at listening

273

because in every conversation he knows how to ask the exact

274

right questions he knows how to dig deeper with you to go below the surface level conversations

275

and everybody loves him heck they love him more than me they tell him more secrets than they tell me

276

and i used to always look at that but like why

277

but he has a secret power good old vin over here

278

trying to always be the one that's the most interesting fong has learned the importance of being interested in others.

279

So be the person who notices others.

280

Be the person who listens for what's underneath the words.

281

Ask them about their world,

282

what they care about, what they do,

283

what they love, what they're building, what they're hoping for.

284

Because the moment someone feels genuinely seen, the conversation changes.

285

It stops being about networking and it starts being about connection.

286

While everyone's out there trying to get attention,

287

you're now the one trying to give it.

288

So what am I trying to say here?

289

Be a little more like Fong and a little less like Vin.

290

And that brings us to the final component,

291

because everything you've done up to this point,

292

it all fades if you can't do this last part correctly.

293

Component number five, what you do in the 24 hours after.

294

Here's the move that separates a good first impression from one that actually lasts.

295

Within 24 hours of meeting somebody new,

296

send them a follow-up message.

297

Not a cheesy LinkedIn request with a generic note,

298

not an Instagram follow-up, an actual message.

299

It doesn't need to be fancy.

300

It just needs to be really, really specific.

301

So let's just say you met somebody at an event,

302

and during that conversation, because you're now more like Fong,

303

and you listen better, you pull on certain threads,

304

you learn that they've been trying to get better at exercising.

305

And you saw that their eyes lit up when they were talking about exercising,

306

but then you also saw their eyes kinda start to dim when they said,

307

ah, but I'm really struggling with staying consistent.

308

You remember all of these and then you connect

309

because you're on the same boat because you've also been trying to exercise too.

310

And that's something you bonded over.

311

If you're going to send a follow up,

312

you should send them something like this.

313

Hey, it was so good meeting you last night.

314

Listen, I know we both spoke last night about being more consistent at the gym.

315

Here's someone who really inspires me.

316

His name is Eugene.

317

He's been able to help me achieve a lot of my fitness goals.

318

So you should follow him too.

319

I think it's gonna help you achieve your goals.

320

And you know what? next time we meet,

321

I bet you we're both gonna have biceps the size of basketballs.

322

Hey, it was genuinely great chatting with you last night.

323

Hope to see you again soon.

324

That's it.

325

No pitch, no ask.

326

You're not trying to get anything out of it.

327

You're just trying to show that you cared and that you were present,

328

that you enjoyed the conversation you had with them the night before.

329

And there's one goal you have after this.

330

So after you've sent that beautiful little message with no strings attached,

331

then I ask you to be curious.

332

Be curious about how you you can help that person achieve one of their goals in life.

333

As opposed to you immediately making an ask and going,

334

hey, by the way, I'm an agency.

335

Can I help you with this or can I help you with that?

336

Instead of doing that, before you ask people for something, give first.

337

This is such a rare trait to have now.

338

So after you send that follow-up,

339

they might send you something back.

340

I would suggest the next thing you send them is that,

341

hey, by the way, if there's anything I can ever help you with to achieve your fitness goals,

342

let me know.

343

I'll be more than happy to do so.

344

Because when you help somebody first,

345

now you're applying a rule.

346

And it's rooted in psychology.

347

There's a principle called the law of reciprocity.

348

And it says that when someone gives you something with no strings attached,

349

even something small, even just a thoughtful message or a thoughtful connection,

350

your brain naturally now wants to give back.

351

And you might be thinking,

352

but Vin, isn't this manipulation?

353

Yes.

354

Yes, it absolutely is.

355

Don't you know that's my plan the entire time?

356

Don't you know that's the purpose of this channel?

357

Is to do evil things

358

and no i'm just kidding i'm just kidding i couldn't follow through with

359

that because i'm not evil and this isn't evil It's not manipulation.

360

It's just how the human brain is wired

361

We're built to return what we've been given so when you send that message

362

and you help the other person There's no by the way i would also love to pick your brain now

363

because i've helped you so you're gonna help me right No,

364

you don't say anything like that it happens naturally

365

when the other person knows that you are being genuine that you are trying to just help,

366

they feel like you care.

367

They remember you differently than the 10 other people they met the night before at the networking function.

368

And when that happens, they want you in their network.

369

They want you in their circle.

370

And the only way you can have a quality connection with somebody is

371

if on the night when you met them in the first place,

372

you had quality listening abilities.

373

It's not about being transactional.

374

It's about making the other person feel seen,

375

feel heard, feel understood, and to make the other person feel cared for.

376

Start the relationship with a genuine connection Seriously, just watch what happens.

377

You can thank me later.

378

Remember, if you want to create a strong first impression,

379

make sure you click the link in the description and learn the full self-awareness process

380

that's going to make you aware of what you do visually that's non-functional,

381

the sounds you make that are non-functional,

382

even some of the things you say that are non-functional.

383

So check that out in my free three-part video course in the description below,

384

or you can scan the QR code up here.

385

I'll see you in the next video.
