English issue, help!!?
just started off as a salesman in a snacks shop, but don't know much !! what would be a polite way of getting a customer's order !! 'hello, may i take ur order' sound stuffy and long !! any idea!!
Answers:
I work in an espresso bar. I don't think it matters so much what you say (so long as it's polite, of course!), but I do try to make sure I don't greet every customer in the exact same way all day long. That keeps my greeting from sounding too rehearsed. So I go back and forth between plain Good morning!; Hi, what can I get for you?; What will it be for you today? and slight variants. The most important thing is a smile that's genuine. People know whether you're REALLY glad to see them or not!
And the good part is that if you're genuinely nice to people, the majority of them will appreciate it and be nice back. Best of luck.
But it's polite and to the point.
Hello I'm (your name) how can i help?
polite and always try to smile when you answer the phone it is noticable in your voice.
Manners are always a winner!
Just smile, and say hello, and ask how thier day is. When they are puzzled by the menu ask if you can answer any questions they may have. Then, casually take thier order. Don't rush or anything. Its rude. Be polite, and focus on service, people like it, and will come back for more!
"Hello, may I help you" is the form I have found to be the most universally acceptable. If it is customary to introduce yourself in your place of work, that introduction would be inserted after "Hello".
thats actually good, try variations of the same, hi i'm ______ what can i do for you today? and ALWAYS smile. you'll be surprised how that warms people up.......good luck!
just greet them a hi or good morning/afternoon or welcome. people come to the snack shop to order food so they basically get it once you greet them that you're there to take their order. however don't rush them into ordering just give suggestions on what they may order. Also be friendly and courteous.
I always like to hear " Hi, what can I get for you today"
It sounds personal and friendly.
try "what will be ordering today sir or mam?"
