Tell Me What You’re Looking For?
Walking into a store, ready to make a purchase, only to be greeted with the all-too-familiar phrase, “Tell me what you’re looking for,” can feel a bit off-putting. It’s a scenario I’ve encountered more times than I can count, and each time, it strikes me as a missed opportunity for genuine engagement.
