''How To Get To Know Thee...Let Me Count The Ways,'' Relationship Guru Explains
NEW YORK--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE via COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Jan. 23, 2001--Ken Gordon, a nationally recognized personal relations expert, has created KenXtions (pronounced connections), a new program that systematically deconstructs the stages of meeting people through a series of video and audio cassettes.
According to Gordon, outrageous comments are key to breaking the ice in a first encounter, especially a possible match-made-in-heaven connection. By setting up an off-the-wall comment with a simple question, a person can quickly minimize awkwardness with a new acquaintance and, through humor, initiate entertaining conversation. KenXtions provides the techniques to confidently and successfully
approach anyone.
''Humor is a powerful tool. Many people think compliments such as `those are really nice shoes` are the best way to warm yourself up to someone new,'' says Gordon. ''But compliments can often have the opposite effect. By using an outrageous comment, or poking fun at yourself, you set the other person at ease by not putting them on the spot. Then you can get down to the real business of getting to know each other.''
KenXtions is the first empowering personal tool that makes meeting new people and making the connection easy. It provides hundreds of icebreakers and outrageous comments for almost any situation, including at the beach, on the street, or at a party. The videos and audiocassettes highlight field-tested methods and advice from Gordon.
Using hidden camera footage, KenXtions illustrates the simple, step-by-step technique used to meet people anywhere for friendship, business and, of course, romance. The program recommends strategies to break the ice, develop rapport and successfully get phone numbers and dates. KenXtions also gives tips on recognizing red flags, knowing when to back off, and overcoming objections and handling rejection.
Founder Ken Gordon, a nationally recognized personal relations expert, was a former sales executive with Paine Webber. He applied many of the methods used in KenXtions of meeting new people through personal experience while working on Wall Street.
