As
mentioned in my last post, sales can be tricker than growing your vegetables
and fruits. Here are four more tips:
4-Be informative about your products. Customers like to ask questions about how produce is
grown, when it’s in season and how to serve or prepare certain produce. Be as
informative as possible. If you are unable to answer some of their questions,
refer them to the LSU AgCenter.
5-Exceed customers’ expectations. Carry heavy items to cars, provide recipes, give an
extra hand-ful of the product they are purchasing. All these go a long way in
making the customer feel valued and appreciated. Everyone loves something for
nothing.
6-Apologize when things go wrong. Apologize when things go wrong. It’s difficult to
make everyone happy all the time. Realize there will be days or moments when
things go wrong and a quick apology even though you have done nothing wrong
will show the customer you value their business.
7-Thank customers for their business. A simple thank you lets customers know you are appreciate and want to have the opportunity to serve them again.
