Have you ever met someone entirely new over Zoom for the very first time? Of course you have. Now, have you ever had butterflies wondering what you’re going to say to break the ice with that new contact? Yup. It happens to the best of us.

Icebreakers aren’t just cheesy or silly, but rather, they can help you build interesting context around the person you’re meeting. For instance, if you ask them what they wish they’d studied in college, and they say psychology, you can follow up with that interesting new study you saw in Scientific American. If someone admits to being a night owl and not an early bird, you can schedule a late-night follow-up email as a reference to their preference.

Context leads to rapport, and rapport leads to stronger connections -- in both business, and life. So, please ask some (gently) probing questions, and use these 50 icebreakers in your next call. (And whatever they answer, don’t forget to jot a note down in Warmly, so you remember their secret skill!)
