People form an initial impression of you remarkably quickly. Whether the precise time is three seconds, seven seconds or slightly longer, the practical lesson for salespeople, executives and client-facing professionals is the same: your first impression begins before you start explaining your credentials, company or solution. In Japan, where professionalism, preparation and attention to detail carry considerable weight, leaving that impression to chance is risky. Your appearance, facial expression, eye contact, voice and opening question all influence whether a buyer initially sees you as credible, trustworthy and worth listening to. Here is how to intentionally engineer a strong first impression when meeting a client. How quickly do clients form a first impression? Clients begin evaluating you almost immediately, often before either person has spoken. Your appearance, posture, facial expression and general composure provide the first available evidence about your professionalism. The exact number of seconds will vary according to the person, situation and research method. However, buyers do make rapid judgements when meeting a salesperson, consultant or executive for the first time. They are subconsciously asking: Does this person look prepared? Are they confident? Can I trust them? Will meeting them be a good use of my time? This matters in both Japanese and international business. A buyer in Tokyo may pay particular attention to formality, punctuality and courtesy, while a buyer in Sydney or New York may respond more strongly to energy and directness. In every market, inconsistency creates doubt. If you claim to offer precision but appear disorganised, the buyer notices the contradiction. Do now: Decide what three qualities you want the client to recognise immediately, and make sure your appearance and behaviour communicate them before the meeting begins. How should a salesperson dress for a first client meeting? Dress so that nothing about your appearance distracts the buyer from your message. Cleanliness, fit, coordination and attention to detail are more important than wearing expensive clothing. Scuffed shoes, food stains, poorly fitting clothes, untidy hair or a worn belt may seem like minor matters. Unfortunately, buyers can interpret these signals as evidence of carelessness. It is difficult to promote a high-quality solution while looking as though quality control does not apply to you. For men wearing business attire, the belt should normally coordinate with the shoes, the tie knot should sit neatly against the collar and the jacket and trousers should fit properly. Women and men should both consider whether their clothing is suitable for the client, industry and level of formality. A technology startup may accept a more relaxed style than a Japanese bank, insurance company or government organisation. The goal is not flamboyance. The goal is visual credibility. Do now: Before leaving for the meeting, check your shoes, clothing, hair, accessories, bag and business materials from the buyer's point of view. Should you smile and bow when meeting a Japanese client? Yes. A natural smile followed by an appropriate bow communicates confidence, warmth and respect before the business conversation begins. Some salespeople become so focused on being formal that their expression becomes severe. Others rush through the greeting because they are nervous or worried about what to say next. A calm smile helps remove tension and tells the client that you are pleased to meet them. In Japan, the bow remains an important part of professional etiquette. The depth and duration will depend on the situation, but a controlled, respectful bow is generally more effective than an exaggerated performance. When exchanging business cards, handle the card carefully, look at it and avoid immediately stuffing it into a pocket. International professionals should adapt without becoming artificial. Japanese buyers do not expect every visitor to behave exactly like a Japanese executive, but they do notice sincere preparation and respect for local business customs. Do now: Practise a simple sequence: make eye contact, smile naturally, greet the person clearly and bow without rushing. How much eye contact is appropriate in Japanese business? Make clear initial eye contact to establish confidence, but avoid staring continuously. In Japan, balanced eye contact is usually more comfortable and culturally appropriate than an unbroken gaze. Eye contact tells the buyer that you are present, composed and interested. At the beginning of the meeting, several seconds of direct eye contact can help establish a connection. After that, allow your gaze to move naturally rather than trying to maintain constant visual contact. Cultural expectations differ. Western sales training often emphasises strong eye contact, while Japanese communication may involve more intermittent eye contact, particularly when showing respect to someone senior. Personality also matters. An assertive buyer may be comfortable with more direct engagement, whereas a quieter or more reflective client may find prolonged eye contact intrusive. The objective is not to follow a mechanical formula. It is to observe the buyer's reaction and adjust. Confident communication should make the other person comfortable, not force them to conform to your preferred style. Do now: Establish eye contact at the greeting, then use relaxed and periodic eye contact throughout the conversation. What should your voice sound like during the first meeting? Your opening voice should sound friendly, clear and confident rather than stiff, rushed or overly rehearsed. The buyer is listening to how you speak as well as what you say. Many salespeople accidentally adopt a cold "business voice". They become formal, lower their energy and sound as though they are reading a corporate announcement. Others mumble, speak too softly, talk too loudly or use a lifeless tone because they are nervous. A professional voice has warmth, clarity and variation. Speak slowly enough to be understood, especially when working across languages or communicating with non-native speakers. Use the buyer's name naturally near the beginning of the conversation. People generally respond positively to hearing their name, but repeating it in every sentence quickly sounds manipulative. Your visual, vocal and verbal messages should support one another. Confidence does not mean volume, and professionalism does not require emotional flatness. Do now: Record your opening greeting and listen for pace, volume, clarity, warmth and whether you sound genuinely pleased to meet the client. What is the best opening question for a sales meeting? The best opening question gets the buyer talking about their business, priorities or recent changes. Your first objective is to understand the client, not to deliver a long explanation about yourself. Instead of beginning with an extended company history, offer a brief, relevant observation and ask an intelligent question. For example: "I noticed your company has been expanding its regional operations. How has that affected the priorities of your team in Japan?" When something has changed in the client's office, organisation or market, do not merely point out the obvious. Ask about the impact. Has the change affected employees, customers, productivity, costs or growth plans? An effective initial sales conversation should normally give the buyer more speaking time than the salesperson. An 80–20 balance will not suit every meeting, but it is a useful reminder to stop talking and start listening. The buyer has the information you need to diagnose the problem and determine whether your solution is relevant. Do now: Prepare three open questions about the client's business, market and current priorities before entering the meeting. How can salespeople read the buyer's communication style? Listen to both the buyer's answers and the way they deliver them. Their pace, level of detail and degree of assertiveness reveal how you should communicate with them. Some buyers want the big picture first. They are interested in outcomes, strategic impact and the future. Others want facts, evidence, implementation details and risk controls before considering a recommendation. Some speak quickly and make decisions decisively, while others pause, reflect and avoid being pressured. A salesperson who ignores these differences may create unnecessary resistance. Giving twenty slides of operational detail to a big-picture executive can lose their attention. Presenting only broad promises to a highly analytical procurement or finance leader can damage credibility. Use the first part of the meeting to observe. Ask questions, listen without interrupting and notice which topics generate interest. Then adapt your language, evidence and pace while remaining authentic. Do now: Identify whether the buyer is primarily big-picture or detail-oriented, and whether they communicate assertively or quietly. Adjust your approach accordingly. Conclusion A strong first impression is not created by one clever phrase. It is the combined effect of your preparation, clothing, expression, eye contact, voice, questions and listening ability. Do not simply walk into a client meeting and hope that everything works out. Decide in advance how you want to be perceived and align every visible and audible signal with that objective. The first few seconds may not determine the entire business relationship, but they can determine how hard you will have to work to earn the buyer's confidence afterward.

We wilted in the first truly difficult match of our World Cup, and now we're out. Greg doesn't think this was inevitable, but also doesn't think it's down to tactics. The team turtled immediately against Belgium's quality, everyone got spooked and we were lucky to go to the half down only a goal. We found a little footing early in the 2nd half, and then Matt Freese sealed our fate. Skip the ads! Subscribe to Scuffed on Patreon and get all episodes ad-free, plus bonus episodes.

Without Pulisic, and with an off night from Balo, we still got a comfortable win, a "Country Roads" serenade, and thanks to Turkiye's loss to Paraguay, we've won the group. Skip the ads!

Sanjay joins Belz and Vince. Gio scored and was influential in a late-season loss for Gladbach. Not much to play for for the Foals but this was an excellent World Cup audition from the dark prince.

When Mel Sims discovered coaching, she was adamant that nobody could understand her life. Her journey into coaching allowed her to put down the mask, harness her strengths, and re-emerge into the world as a neurodivergent emotional coach.Mel trained as a coach while learning about herself through the lens of an ADHD diagnosis. As well as offering her a pathway of personal growth, these experiences helped Mel find her niche through the realisation that neurodivergent people need a particular coaching approach.In this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, Mel speaks to host Joey Owen about different styles of emotional communication, and the many ways in which people can be misunderstood. She talks about how being an “unpolished” coach enables her to offer a space where people can let go of their need hide their feelings and be guided by an authentic intuition.Mel offers several brilliant metaphors and visualisation techniques that illuminate this episode, such as the idea of wearing a colander on your head as a way to filter information, and thinking of neurodivergent minds as stars that have become more visible in our world of modern telescopes and greater understanding.The challenges of time management, rest and staying grounded are explored in this episode as Mel describes how she tailors coaching to people who might need alternative approaches to scheduling, flexibility, communication and depth.Mel and Joey also talk about:The intuitive, bordering-on-magical connection that neurodivergent people share having navigated shared challengesHow to make space for emotional outpourings that can have a transformative impact in coaching sessionsA psychological technique that enables a kinder, more compassionate approach to self-coachingHow to own your weak spots and set healthy expectationsMel also explains why she starts some of her inspirational coaching talks wearing a snorkel, a diving mask and a pair of flippers!For more information about Mel, visit: https://melsimslifecoach.co.uk or @theadhdhummingbird on Facebook and InstagramFor more information about host Joey Owen, visit http://www.joeyowencoaching.com/ Read more about The Coach's Journey at www.thecoachsjourney.comMusic by My Good Man William: listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4KmeQUcTbeE31uFynHQLQgTo support the Coach's Journey, visit www.patreon.com/thecoachsjourney and to join the Coach's Journey Community visit www.thecoachsjourney.com/community.
