Article: Once you've broken that initial ice, it's a good idea to give a basic introduction. Just your first name will do. Anything more will seem overly personal. This is the classic move but it is best avoided. Asking a guy what he does for a living right off the bat (unless it is relevant to the conversation) gives him the impression that you're just a gold digger. Not the best way to start getting to know someone! It's no fun to have a conversation with someone who's obviously just interested in talking about themselves, so give him information about you but take every opportunity to turn the conversation back around to him. So, for example, if he asks you a question about yourself, ask the same in turn of him. When you ask him questions, try to shoot for a healthy helping of open ended questions. These are questions that cannot be answered with a basic yes or no answer, helping to keep the conversation moving in an interesting direction. Open ended questions usually start with words like "why" or "how". "When" and "who" questions aren't likely to get you a long answer. Ask him questions and try to tease out some things you have in common. It doesn't have to be much but it can help you bond and certainly keeps the conversation going. Ask him about his likes within the context of the conversation you're having. If his don't match up with yours, that's fine: just ask him why he feels the way he does with politeness and curiosity. If he seems off-put, just back off. You're not going to get anywhere. Look for a closed body posture or him slightly backing away from you. Listen for how he responds when you talk. Is he giving the shortest answer possible and trying to close the conversation? These are bad signs. But if he's moving closer, giving long answers, or flirting a bit, you're in the gold. If he seems open and responsive, however, you can give him your number! Don't give him a business card, in case he turns out to be a weirdo (you don't want him to show up at your office). Just a quick scribble on a spare piece of paper will do fine. We wish you the best of luck in your ventures!

Introduce yourself! Do not start off by asking him about his work. Focus the conversation on him. Use open questions. Find common ground. Read his cues. Give him your number.
