Customers don’t like to be tied down with
a single option. Make sure you give them
several options to choose from, but not
too many so as to make a choice difficult.

I’m sure we’ve all been in situations where we
received slow service and vowed never to do
business with that company again, right? This
applies to the service YOU provide as well. Always
be prompt. It shows that you value the customer’s
time.

Customers like to do business with people who
know what they’re talking about! Make sure you
are well-versed in the product or service BEFORE
you try to sell the customer on it. Nobody likes to
deal with an incompetent salesperson.
