I’m so nervous! I don’t know what to bring, what to say… I need tips! I want to present myself in the best way possible, to maximize the rewards of going to this event. However, I don’t have a lot of stories to talk about within my portfolio (other than the personal or job-related events that I’ve done that got me to this point). How do I answer the tough questions? Do I act like someone who’s just starting out, or do I try to sound like I’m established? What’s the etiquette for these types of events? What to say, do, what not to say or do…

Also, I don’t know what I should bring. I know I should bring business cards for sure, but with that many people, is it wise to bring a brochure as well? Would that be overkill with the stacks of brochures everyone will probably be handing each other? I will do it if I should. I just need some advice. I’ve never done this before so please bear with me because I’m new to this, clueless and need all the help I can get. And how should I dress? Business suit? Business casual? Wear a company t-shirt? LOL

Thanks in advance…. and if anyone knows of any websites that provide tips on these sort of things, please share. Yahoo and Google is not helping me right now. LOL

Does business suit me?
Reema was a stage singer, but it wasn’t a financially viable career. She earned additional
money working at a copy shop in Karachi. The elderly couple who owned the shop gave
flexible hours to employees with aspiring music careers. Sadly, the husband died and the
wife decided to sell the business and go to Lahore. Reema grabbed the opportunity. The
former owner helped Reema gather financial information and pit together a business plan.
Reema’s uncle co-signed on a bank loan, and she was in business. She modernized the
decor of the shop. Reema contacted all the existing customers to assure equal or better
service. Sales increased the first two months. But then…The former owner left city
earlier than planned. Then Reema’s chief printer quit. With the schedules of per part-time
employees, Reema was frantically trying to get large orders out on time. With no formal
business training and no management experience, Reema couldn’t begin to deal with all
these problems, problems even a veteran would find difficult. She ended up selling the
business at a RS 500000 loss.
Think as a rational person:
1. What characteristics did Reema possess that led her to become a business person?
2. What circumstances out of Reema’s control led to the failure of this business?
