During these challenging economic times you need a competitive edge. You create a first impression everyday and you must know how to present a professional and consistent image in order to outclass your competition. It’s a new year to take stock – especially in you! Make what you project, your project.
Be On Time – Stop blaming the traffic for being late for meetings or lunch appointments. Most people underestimate how long it takes to do a task by 30%, so plan accordingly. If you are running late, make sure you call or text an accurate arrival time – always best to under promise and over deliver.
Practice Your Conversation Skills – A lot of people think that being a good conversationalist means being an extrovert or being chatty but, the art of conversation is actually about being able to ask great questions, and then listening to the answers. Ask questions that start with “who, what, when, how, why, and where” and you will get a much better response instead of asking questions that illicit only a yes or no response. It is also helpful to read or listen to the headline news each day.
Wear Your Color Palette – In this time of tightened resources, we all need a strategy for consistently looking great. Don’t go into your closet blind; find out if the blue to flatter “you” is teal, sapphire, or powder by getting a professional Color Analysis (www.kayhunter.info). If you only wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time, this information will save you time, money, and frustration.
Groom Your Fingernails – Frayed cuticles and hangnails are all too common this time of year. Regular manicures would be ideal, but in an effort to save money simply apply cuticle cream to your nails. Try www.duri.com for Herbatherapy for your cuticles and Rejuvacote for cracked and weak nails at (www.duri.com).
Capture the most flattering color reflections, which come from your clothing, and you will look more alive and attractive! By learning your personal color palette you will enhance your facial features, maximize your wardrobe dollars, heighten your level of image confidence, and attract success. You will receive a fabric palette representing your best colors. We will also review your first impression and make recommendations for you to be your best!

Tie a Perfect Knot – Since so much of a man’s look is in the details, wearing a perfectly tied tie is a subtle way to speak volumes. Every man should be able to tie a four-in-hand (smaller knot) and half-Windsor (larger knot). The proper knot is the one which fills the tie space of the collar appropriately.
