Exeter City's new signing Reuben Reid says he is looking forward to working under new manager Paul Tisdale.
The 28-year-old forward, who was a free agent having left Plymouth Argyle in the summer, says the chance to link up with manager Tisdale was what convinced him to put pen to paper on a contract at St James Park.
"I have been in talks with a few teams, but I met the manager (Paul Tisdale) on Sunday in a nice pub in Bath and he explained what he wanted to do for me," Reid told the club's official website.
"I went home feeling refreshed and it left me with a massive smile on my face. I just couldn't wait to get the deal over the line.
"It was just a real conversation. Before we even spoke about football, he asked about my family.
"He knows my brother and my father well and he just sort of said what he sees me doing and what he sees this club doing. I think, at this moment in my career, Exeter City and the way he sets up his teams will benefit me and I can benefit the club."
Asked what his aims were, Reid added: "You have got to come in and get respect from your new team-mates and impress them and hopefully get in the team.
"From there you let things takes care of itself by playing well, scoring goals for the team and getting assists for your team-mates. You try and get three points every week and then who knows where that can take you at this level.
"I know there are some very good players here, that know how to get their forward players in good positions and hopefully I can be a part of that."
