The biggest tip I can give you to up your introducing skills is to always assume that whoever you’re talking to knows nothing about you or your work. No matter how big of a deal you are, if you abide by this rule, you win at life. A friend of mine met Paul Rudd once at a bar and he introduced himself by just saying “Hi! My name’s Paul! What’s yours?” Doesn’t that make you have an even bigger crush on Paul Rudd? There isn’t a person alive that doesn’t appreciate humility.
