Step 1
Determine the order in which your introduction should be made. Social introductions are generally based on three different things: gender, prominence and age. Introduce a man to a woman, a lower-ranking person to a higher-ranking person, and a young person to an older person.

Step 2
Start your introduction by saying the name of the person of higher prominence. That will help you keep your introduction in the proper order.

Step 3
Use full names and titles when making introductions, and offer information about each person during the introduction so they can carry on the conversation.
