Here's my advice.

Show a lot of people that you are a good and trust-worthy person in a very short space of time

But, can you do that?

Honestly. I don't like the "quick" mentality.

But if you're in a "hurry", here are somethings you can try:

1. Tell people about your profile.

Impressed them. Show them your achievements.
If you don't tell them, no one will.

2. Tell people to Google your name.

Hopefully, you already have something nice at Google you can
show them.

3. Show them what your friends think about yourself.

Ask your current friends to give testimonials about yourself and
show them to the people.
