Hi Iā€™m Yoti, whatā€™s your name?

I go back and forth with my love of name tags.

Theyā€™re great! But they also let us off the hook from locking that important information in our brains. Iā€™ve been doing a wild amount of thinking on this and wanted to share a few techniques that might help.

Step 1: The ā€œFirst Howlā€ ā€“ Active Listening
Most people forget names in the first seven seconds because theyā€™re thinking about what to say next. Pause, listen, and say the name back immediately.

Step 2: The ā€œCoyote Tagā€ ā€“ Association & Memory Hook
Your brain remembers images 65% better than words, so tie their name to a mental picture. If you meet a Luna, picture a full moon.

Step 3: The ā€œPack Echoā€ ā€“ Repeat and Reinforce
Use their name three times in conversation. When you meet, mid-convo, and when you part ways. ā€œNice to meet you, Luna.ā€ ā€œLuna, thatā€™s interesting.ā€ ā€œSee you soon, Luna.ā€

Step 4: The ā€œPack Trailā€ ā€“ Digital Reinforcement
Studies show writing things down boosts memory by 40%. Jot a quick note in your phone. ā€œLuna, AI founder, loves hiking.ā€

Step 5: The ā€œEcho Howlā€ ā€“ Practice and Play
Try recalling three names after each event. Even remembering one extra name per week adds up to 50 stronger connections a year.

The last thing. Everyone says theyā€™re bad at it. Everyone. So thereā€™s no shame in asking again. Actually, it shows you care.

Enough howling for now. Letā€™s dive into the week.

Startups move fast: coyote-at-full-sprint fast. You donā€™t have time to get tangled up in hiring when you should be building, selling, and scaling. Thatā€™s where Scott Faurot and Blue Shoe Recruiting comes in.

Scottā€™s been in the game for 20+ years. Heā€™s placed 1,000+ candidates, survived 5,000+ interviews, and even got recruited by Google (talk about flipping the script). He knows how to track down game-changing talent, so you donā€™t have to go sniffing around the hiring maze.

Your startup doesnā€™t need another recruiter. It needs a headhunting coyote who finds ROI-driving, rocket-fuel hires.

So if your team is still running barefoot, maybe itā€™s time to lace up some Blue Shoes.
