How to meet new people: • Communication Tips: Ho...
Picture this... You arrive at an event and your eyes scan a room full of strangers. A mild panic sets in as you wander over to the appetizer table, hoping to find a friendly face. Instead you find yourself face to face with an equally uncertain attendee. Both of you seem to want to run for the door. Now imagine how you would feel if you walked into that same room, fully prepared to delight people with your ability to strike up a warm and engaging conversation. Watch today's video to learn the three simple tools you need to get talking and start enjoying meeting new people. It's time to say good-bye to awkward silence once and for all!

I really like this one. "what brought you here today?"
It works.
You seem like a professional business woman yourself. I really like your suggestions and I also enjoy learning from you.
Thank you Alexa. Excellent advice.
I don't like the question "So what brought you here today?" It sounds so formal and comes across as an interrogation rather then friendly chit chat in my opinion. I'd rather start out saying with a smile "So, hows it going?" Or maybe its because I'm a chill guy:P
Hey alexa...I like your smile....its cute
i like your skin it looks smooth and bright . how old are you ?
Very good
Hi Alexa, one word people say to me more than any other is pardon? Then the following line, what did you say? and; can you speak up please. You talk through your beard. I don't have a beard mind never have had. So I'm watching your videos. Previously I believed that was way I was born surely I'm to old to change, I always mumble and often sound "stupid". That was what my first girlfriend used to say to me. And one before last, would say I was an Eeejit! Neither of them lasted more than 3 month if that. And the last one almost 2 weeks. But she does want to see me again as friends. But I have always been pretty good at making people laugh. So far I have learned from you that eye contact, and articulation is important. I have tried many times reading aloud but I didn't learn to read until my late 20s so not too good at that. I'm now age 55 my picture with cat taken in about 2012
Thanks it is beautiful tip for the morning.
