Your appearance makes more of a different than you think it does.
I’m not talking about looks, mind you, no one has any control over that.
I am talking about the things we can control, like cleanliness and how we dress and present ourselves to the world. Taking good care of yourself and how you present yourself can make or break you, regardless of how smart or clever you might be. I learned this lesson the hard way when I first opened up my consultation business and experienced a very tough time. A friend of mine commented on the furniture, which made me laugh out loud. Why on earth would something like my wooden office chairs have any bearing on the work I do, this confused me. My friend explained that for a lot people, first impressions mean more than anything, and seeing shoddy mismatched furniture made them question my entire business. I was blown away by this news, it had never crossed my mind that the office furniture was going to represent me as a business owner. I did not hesitate to get rid of a lot of those wooden chairs, and the coffee table too, and order new stuff for the office. Almost immediately I noticed a change in my clients, who might not have consciously noticed the furniture, and yet it still helped. A classy office with elegant furniture gives a far better impression of me and the work that I do. Remember this advice if you ever open up a business, to not cheap out when it comes to furniture!
