Intervw Opp: Career-Ruining Social Blunders you Don't Know You're Making!

Why people (just might) hate you: Etiquette Coach Reveals Five Surprising Reasons

2011-02-21
HERNDON, VA, February 21, 2011 (Press-News.org) The business call lasted over half an hour. Had it taken place in a cubicle or behind closed doors, it would have been decidedly unremarkable.

As it was, in a crowded restaurant, in front of a lovely date, the conversation illicited many an annoyed glance as a fairly obvious (to everyone but the man in the dark blue suit) social blunder was committed.

Most of us have no problems identifying the major triggers of social animosity, but the slightly-more-subtle cues are, well, subtler. But don't be fooled: They can be just as damaging to our reputations as a thirty-minute date-canceler (you can bet the gal won't say "yes" when he calls again).

Susanna Theo has spent a lifetime studying what makes other people tick--and get ticked. Interview Miss Theo to discover:

The five major social blunders you don't know you're committing (though each only raises the hackles of about 50% of the American population, chances are some of those 50% are good impressions that actually matter--and can negatively impact your career and personal relationships).

Don't risk committing another major faux pas! Schedule an interview with Miss Theo today. Contact Allen Media Strategies Alyssa Joy at 703-589-8960 or alyssa@allenmediastrategies.com.
