How do you introduce yourself to customers? I find it's easiest to start with a Tie Down with a Sullivan Nod before I even give my name, "I should probably fill your empty lap, huh?" is what I like to say. This gives me immediate feedback because I didn't ask for a dance. If he invites me to sit down, that means he is probably interested in buying a dance. If he waves me away, then that just saved me the time! Most importantly here, if I'm not sitting down, I'm NICE and respectful of his choice. Maybe he will change his mind later, but for now he's letting me know to focus somewhere else.
Be sure to assess your customer's personality type before you approach him, and use your introduction dialogue to read into him even more. Is he speaking loudly or softly? Does he use his hands actively or is he passive? If you know what you are looking for you can use the proper method to greet him individually in a way that he will respond positively. Remember you only have one chance to make a first impression!
Keep the Vibe Alive
To create a fun positive vibe remember to say the words awesome, fantastic, and wonderful when describing yourself. It may be a challenge at first. Its a matter of reprogramming the way you think, which is why it seems so strange. Remember when all you know is wrong....right will seem wrong to you. Especially if you have been doing the wrong thing for a long time. Start mastering this right away because it will take the most effort to make the switch for "Eh, I'm okay how are you" to "I had an awesome day!" in the beginning. They payoff though will be amazing when you see the look on customer's faces that you are awesome, fantastic or wonderful after all the other girls said "Wanna Dance" or "Eh, my rent is late" Start doing this right away and you will see results fast. People want to hang out with other people who are awesome fantastic and wonderful... so catch yourself before you tip a negative hand to start the conversation right away.
