How can you use the ‘rule of three’ in your introductions?

I know many of you who are seeking jobs, as well as those of you seeking contracts or consulting engagements, understand the need to craft and practice an engaging introduction.  (I’m not calling it an elevator pitch anymore, since that invokes for some a slimy sales personality, one you don’t want to be associated with.)

Anyway, I read this blog posting, see below, and realized it to be very relevant to our introductions or responses to “What do you do?” or “What are you looking for?”.

Will be curious to hear how you can incorporate this strategy to create more engaging content for your introductions?

Will it be the three points you want to make in your introduction – what you do, how your clients benefit from your service, and what a great referral would look like?

Or, the three accomplishments most relevant to your job search / audience?

Or, the three best strengths you bring to the work you do?

Or, the three target companies you are trying to find decision makers in?

How will you use the rule of three?
