Maybe dancing isn’t your thing. Perhaps singing or rapping is? Have a little fun, and sing your customers a song. Captivate them with your voice. And if you are not the best singer, at the very least you can make them laugh (see tip #81).
You don’t have to be super fancy. You really don’t even have to be good. You just have to care enough about delighting your customers to give you all the reasons you need to go for it.
Examples
- Check out how Fiat UK rapped their way into mothers’ hearts.
- Visit The Green Room rapped and danced their way all over the internet in their Christmas Jammies. Fun, fun, fun!
Suggestions
