A man just came in and said he needs a gift for his wife but can’t explain what she likes; the line at the register is growing and the floor manager expects me to close today’s numbers. I’m new on this register and don’t want to sound clueless. Tell me what the likely customer type is (gift shopper versus browsing), which two rapid questions will reveal the right aisle, and give one short phrase to use that moves him from vague to specific without sounding pushy. I will not offer discounts yet.
