Speaker 2:
so here's something you can do to be a better server today. The ability to read others does not come naturally to some people figuring out how to navigate an interaction with someone in order to quickly create a momentary rapport with them. Takes a keen eye and then the 10 of year, for example, pay attention to what a person is wearing. Find something that you can compliment them on and use that as a way to start a conversation. This could range from acknowledging someone's earrings to inquiring about the meaning behind their elaborate tattoo. Little moments like this can really help set the mood for the rest of your interaction with them. For instance, when I worked at chick filet, a customer walked in with a really awesome t shirt of a video game that I really liked, and then from there on out he and I would always just go off the video games when he came into the store. This little bit of a compliment and just paying attention really helped develop a great rapport and a long lasting relationship for years to come when he would come into the store, creating conversations, even if only for a moment, can establish positive report and longterm relationship.
