		<description><![CDATA[Hi, Hmmm, me&#039;ism, not a very good first impression.  You would be far better off putting yourself aside and concentrate on leading the conversation with gentle probing questions regards to the other person.  Encourage them to talk about him or herself, their social and family interest and later, their business.  Of course, if they want to jump straight into asking you about you, your family and your business then its ok to accommodate them.  In that case, let them lead the conversation and you follow.  While at the same time using your conversation skills to distinguish between polite conversation requiring a short answer and real interest that requires something more in depth.  The main thing is to NOT LECTURE THEM.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Surely this is overkill, I know my business and can explain it. If someone is interested they&#039;ll take the trouble to understand it. I&#039;ve meet ton&#039;s of people and had no problem telling them what I want to do, the trouble is not everyone does take the time to listen in which case they&#039;re not the right ones to have as a partner.]]></description>
