Do you want the ability to walk into a room of strangers and instantly befriend everyone? Create an amazing first impression?

How do some people end up with friends anywhere they go and make amazing impressions on everyone? What really makes people connect, open up, and just... click with others?It's something we never learn in school... a shame because Connecting Instantly with others just might be the most important skill you'll ever learn.

The first 60 seconds of an interaction is the gatekeeper of friendship and relationships.

It determines whether people will invest time and energy in you... and simply care about you. Nail it, and you'll be given the benefit of the doubt in any situation... fail to click instantly and you'll fall into the dreaded zone of apathy and "who cares about them?" We don't get second chances in a reality that deals largely in snap judgments. Connect Instantly was written specifically to deal with those crucial first moments of interaction, and make sure that you control 100% that you click and make a great impression, and reap the rewards of it.

What about clicking instantly will you learn?

* How outbound positivity always comes full circle and inbound - back to you.* What ignoring small details in favor of the main message can do for your conversational flow.* The small acts of service that require zero effort... but make people love you.

As well as...

* Telltale signs of genuineness and authenticity in your smile.* Why asking people's opinions makes them value your opinions more.* The bonding power of imperfections, flaws, and vulnerability.When you can master the first 60 seconds of an interaction, your world is simply opened up. If you can pass everyone's gatekeeper and leave them wanting to invest time and emotion into you, there's no more powerful emotion. You'll be first in line for every business opportunity because people will assume the best of you. You'll always be attractive to the opposite sex because of that impression. Old friends will want to see you more, and new friends will want to strengthen that bond quickly - are you ready for all the new friends you'll have?

P.S. Use snap judgments to your advantage!

Very Insightful and Interesting

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is a great book for someone looking to make friends. It contains lots of helpful tips on how to be more likeable, meaningful and connected with the people around you. I usually don't have problems myself with making friends. But I am guilty of doing some of the things that this book talks about. Like the book says if we were all honest with ourselves we do judge a person in the first 60 seconds of them entering into a room whether we mean to or not it just happens. And the goal of this book is to help you make the best of that 60 seconds, because unfortunately we don't always get a second chance. So I suggest taking a look and reading this book by Patrick King and maybe it will give you a better idea of what you can do to help yourself be better judged. I was lucky enough to receive this product during a promotion for my honest and unbiased review.

60 Seconds to Improve Your Social Well Being

Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2015

Verified Purchase

Interesting read for our increasingly social world. This book explains how first impressions affect relationships, both negatively and positively. Let's face it, we all do it. We base our relationships on first impressions of everyone we meet, both professionally and personally. The book shows you what first impressions you are giving out to people you meet. A thought, very few of us probably have about ourselves. It gives exercises you can use to increase your ability to "click instantly". It offers up ways to turn around your first impression. It also, goes on to describe how we in turn, derive our first impressions of others. It offers up ways to interact differently. The book explains that body language is just as important as the words we speak. The book also reminds us to place the focus on the other person. If you have forgotten how to start a meaningful relationship - personally or professionally - this book is a good reminder to all of us!

Extremely useful, and absolutely works!!!! The concepts are put in a clear way that makes the reading process easier!

WOW!!!!

This book is a great tool to learn about connecting deeply with another person. I've tested it specifically, in the dating scene, and it has had amazing results! I am a fan of the cold approach method of meeting people, and I NEED to be able to connect with people Instantly! I took the information I learned from this book, and I applied it with great success!!!

A favorite part of mine in the book, when he talks about the 'I'm curious about the person, and I want to learn more'. Having that mindset alone can change your conversations to the better.

This was the first book I've read by Patrick King, and I will be reading more.

I would definitely recommend for anyone looking to improve their conversational skills. Although this book is Directly about connecting with people, and while it has great information, it assumes that you are able to 1. Start a conversation with a stranger and 2. Get the stranger talking about what they love to do (after which you start applying what you are taught in this book to maintain a connection). Essentially it focuses specifically in the Art of connecting with people (which is only one part of having conversational skills, especially in the romantic settings, flirting and things like that are not included).

But, great book for learning about how to connect nonetheless, Absolutely would recommend to anyone who's trying to become more effective at meeting people.

not completely suitable for autistic humans

Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2017

Verified Purchase

I'm autistic. I come across poorly to other humans. I was hoping for much clearer and more specific information in this book i.e. immediately actionable items. Suggestion like the following do not help me:

"ask five of your friends to reach into their memory banks and recall their first impression of you in the form of adjectives . . . After you've gotten the list of adjectives, park yourself in front of a mirror and practice the facial expressions, tones of voice, and body language that correspond to these adjectives. For example, if somebody said you were odd and unapproachable, look in the mirror and figure out what kind of facial expressions, mannerisms, tone of voice, and body language are appropriate. The point of this exercise is to be aware of the non-verbal and verbal signals you are sending out. You can fine-tune and avoid the negative signals, and you can practice and emphasize the positive signals. Making a remarkable first impression has never been so easy."

OK, 1) I do not have 5 friends and 2) If I knew what expressions went with different adjectives I wouldn't have a problem in the first place. How the hell do I practice not looking "odd"?

However other advice was more useful, such as hold eye contact with people only 50% of the time when you are speaking, compared to 80% when you are listening. Also the four phrases of emotional validation are something practical I can put into effect right away. I did get some value from the book, but much of it was filler, and I found it overpriced for the content.

A Great Read For Adults And for Young Adults.

Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2015

Verified Purchase

I think for all of us we wonder as to why we do not like or get along with someone as soon as they meet them and this book really sheds some light on the reasons behind that and way on getting to know someone a little better before deciding that we do not like that person.

First impressions are usually the make it or break for all of us, but it shows how getting to know someone after that first impression can really change how you look at a person and see what other people like about the person. We tend to miss out on friendships because we are too busy to actually get to know someone and know what these people are all about. Instead, we are on our way and only think about that first meeting.

Quick read with some good tips for connecting quickly with people. Many of the ideas are common sense but do bear reminding. For those of us who struggle with meeting new people and feeling connected, this is a great set of tools and tips to use in business, social situations, and dating.

Simple Tipps

Reviewed in Germany on October 2, 2017

Verified Purchase

Das Buch ansich ist leicht verständlich und flüssig zu lesen. Mir kam es stellenweise eher vor wie eine simple Zusammenfassung von "How To Win Friends And Influence People" von Dale Carnegie (was nicht negativ ins Gewicht fällt).

Für mich war leider nichts wirklich Neues dabei, wer schon basic Erfahrungen im Umgang mit seine Mitmenschen hat, muss das Buch nicht zwingend lesen. Nichtsdestotrotz wird für den Ein oder Anderen ein hilfreicher Tipp zu finden sein, um diesen Preis kann man nicht viel falsch machen.
