Relationships are the key to survival and success for entrepreneurs, and first impressions usually turn into lasting impressions. As an advisor to many early-stage entrepreneurs, I caution them to always be prepared for that chance meeting with a famous investor, a potential partner or an industry guru.

Despite many years of advising aspiring entrepreneurs and people in business, I continue to be surprised by the number of people who wait for decisions to be made by default, or allow others to make decisions for them.

Typically you answer these questions with a ‘true’, ’false’ or ‘cannot say’ response – although this can vary from test to test. Literacy and verbal logic are two skills that are highly prized by employers, so it pays to be prepared.
