We only get one first impression, as the adage goes. If you want to make sure that you are setting the right tone, and an impression, with your corporate partners you need to be aware of a few things.

Lavishing your partners in gifts is not necessarily the way to go. In fact, it can look somewhat trite. If you want to make sure that you are setting a professional impression, you need to keep it simple. After all, first impressions are the ones that count.

Trying to set the right impression can be tough. But, if you want expert advice, you are in the right place.

eCards

Holiday eCards offer a personal touch. What is more, they are easy on the environment too. Your partners will be impressed with the personal touch that you have provided. As well as being green, they are also very cost effective. You also won’t have to suffer the consequences of RSI anymore from writing out a glut of holiday cards. ECO2 Greetings can be sent to all of your employees too. So, not only will you win brownie points with your peers, your employees will think you are ‘boss of the year’ too.

Partners That Lunch

A long lunch may seem reminiscent of Mad Men, but you can have a long lunch with your corporate partners. You can chew the fat while chewing the fat. Discussing work matters in a less formal setting is enough to get anyone’s corporate juices flowing. A leisurely work lunch also ensures that you take the time away from your desk. You will be everyone’s favourite colleague by making sure that they are getting a lunch break. The great thing is, everyone will enjoy this. Business lunches can be fun, but they can also produce some seriously good ideas.

Get to Know Your Peers

While you may not want to lavish your peers with expensive lunches, you should endeavour to get to know them on a personal basis. This is a sure fire way to impressing your nearest and dearest in a professional capacity.

You should get to know their partners, kids and dogs names. Make sure that you ask about them on a regular basis. Of course, asking someone how their wife is on a daily basis may be a little odd. Do make sure that you have a personal touch. This goes a long way and is the right way to impress your colleagues within the office. What is more, it will strengthen working relationships so that you can get the best from your corporate partners. Emotional, and professional, bonds will ensure that you have a fantastic working relationship. This will increase productivity and make sure that you have a brilliant rapport.

Be a Good Representative

Ensuring that you remain the epitome of cool professional is a must. If you do decide to indulge in a long lunch, omit the booze. You need to be a representative of your company, not someone that is an embarrassment. The best way to impress your corporate partners is to ensure that you epitomise professionalism. Being an amazing representative of your organisation is impressive.
