The opening remarks of inviting customers to eat should know that the ultimate goal of inviting customers to eat is not simply to eat. Based on this, eating is just an excuse. In order to facilitate communication with customers, customers are unwilling to eat with us. First of all, it takes time. Secondly, this meal is neither free nor delicious. Third, the relationship has not gone a step closer. So it is normal that it is difficult to make an appointment with a client.
Before a mature relationship is established, the commercial value of customers (what a cold word) is basically in direct proportion to the difficulty of inviting them out, which is the same as the difficulty of inviting them to dinner with MM is basically in direct proportion to the beauty of MM. Two points are very important for inviting people to dinner. Sincerity and statement.
The so-called sincerity is a mixture of persistence, patience, perseverance and perseverance. To put it simply, this client is difficult to invite, so I keep inviting him. Every time I go there on business, I call him first: XXX, I'm here on business again today. You happened to have XX business last time. Is today convenient? Everybody get together? After declining, you start to arrange other things in order.
You travel ten times a year. How many people have the heart and courage to refuse ten seemingly kind invitations?
More importantly, there is a saying. Let's listen to how many kinds of "wonderful" sayings, even if it's just a simple meal.
XXX, last time I heard that you were here on business, you were too busy to visit our company. I will invite you anyway this time to make up for the friendship of the landlord.
XXX, thank you very much for your suggestion on our products today. I am the host tonight.
XXX, I heard that a new XXX store is quite good here. Of course, I can't reimburse the company if I eat it myself. Just one sacrifice, let me find the light.
XXX, I just ordered XXX soup from XXX store and asked to cook it for three days. Are you free in three days? Give face anyway.
Precautions for inviting customers to dinner 1. If a single client is invited, he is advised to bring his family. Whether he will come or not is his business, but at least your sincerity has arrived.
2. Avoid inviting conflicting customers to sit at the same table. If it is really necessary, you would rather invite them twice.
If possible, try to advance as far as possible, so as not to make people feel that he is making up the numbers.
Once the invitation has a result, don't forget to further remind or confirm the day before the banquet, and clearly inform the time, place, number of people waiting for the table and other information. If you are not close to the invitee, you may need to invite an escort to avoid embarrassment and silence. Book a private room first!
What to eat and where to eat are also very important!
