The importance of greetings

Greetings are vital to make that first good impression, establish good relationships with your
loved ones and set a positive tone for any conversation whether it is with your friend,
teachers or family. If you want to be an effective personality, you should not ignore the
importance of greetings. Delivering right impression and proper greetings to the people you
come across, you can make good impact on others and climb the ladder of success sooner.
Greetings not only help you in maintaining a good social image but also helps you in your
professional life. They are categorized into two categories. These categories are known as
verbal greetings and written greetings. Let’s see why they are important.
It begins with “a Cheerful Hello”
Whether you want to greet someone for business or holiday, or you just meet someone
special for the very first time, a cheerful hello can help you establish a positive tone for your
entire interaction. A firm handshake and a bright smile can help you connect with the person
effectively. Greetings such as “hello”, “have a nice day” or “good day” help you to make
warm gestures that often come back in the same manner.
Friendly and inviting greetings often turn out in pleasant conversation.

How you can improve your day to day greetings?

By offering a firm handshake, looking into eyes and saying hello with a bright smile, you
follow the basic rules of greetings. After this, the next step is to show interest in others by
asking them How are you?, May, I help you? Or How is your day? Also, you can greet
someone in a professional style such as “Hello, my name is Vignes”.
What about greeting cards and other types of written greetings?
Well, in this case, salutation comes in the first place. Though, we have moved from hand-
written letters or paper greetings to ecards, it is still important to appear confident and
professional in your writing. When you send greetings for a business purpose, begin with
Hello followed by title or your name show respect and reflect professionalism. If you are
writing greeting cards for friends or family members, then you can include less formal words
such as What’s up, hay and dear in your writing.
Greetings are still as important as they were in the past centuries. The significance of
greetings cannot be ignored. They matters a lot. Make sure you use them in a right manner
when you greet your familymembers, friends, or strangers to experience their mystic results.
