HotOiler3 Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 What's the first sentence you guys use when trying to locate face to face? For instance, you walk in, and ask an employee to fetch the owner/manager/person in charge, the person in charge walks up to you and says "Hi, how can I help you?" and your first words ARE? I'm pretty good with selling once the conversation is started, but the opening sentence is a crippler for me, also, some have asked me "Do you have any details about it?" Details? It's an effing candy/sticker/gumball machine! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M and E Vending Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I start off with "I was wondering if I could place a candy machine here to help out so and so charity". This usually works for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMD Snacks Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 I can completely understand where you're coming from. Wording seems so miniscule but it soo important for me as well. My magic phrase is...(drum roll please)... I'd like to discuss the possibility of placing "insert machine here". It works for me, doesn't feel pushy, doesn't feel like i'm selling or begging. Though the very first thing I do is introduce myself and state that I own a small vending business..that normally gets said to the gatekeeper though.
