When to use

A shopper just started browsing the product area with no clear plan yet.

Script

Hi there, welcome to store name -- I am your name. No need to buy anything today, feel free to look around at your own pace.

If it helps, we just got new stock in the product area, and there is promo on this week if you spot something you like.

I will be right over here. When you want a hand -- sizes, stock, or just a second opinion -- give me a wave and I am yours.

One quick thing so I can point you the right way: is this for you, or are you shopping for someone else today?

When to use

first name is looking around the product area but has not said what they need yet.

Script

So I point you the right way rather than guessing, first name -- I am your name by the way -- can I ask what brought you in for product area today?

Is this for everyday use, a specific occasion, or a gift? That one answer changes what I would show you.

And have you used something like this before -- is there anything about your current one you want to fix or upgrade this time?

Last thing: do you have a rough idea of budget range, or would it help if I laid out a couple of options across different price points?

Great -- that gives me plenty to work with. Let me show you two or three that actually fit, not the whole wall.

When to use

first name has told you enough that you can match them to a specific product.

Script

Based on what you said, first name, I would point you straight at the product. Here is why it fits: key benefit.

It is not the flashiest thing on the shelf, but it is the one I would take home for what you described. It handles exactly the use you mentioned.

If you want a second option to weigh it against, the alternative is a step in a different direction -- a little more or less depending on what matters most to you.

The product is price. Want me to hold it while you keep looking, or are you happy enough to take it now?

When to use

first name has decided on the product and you are ringing it up.

Script

Nice choice, first name -- the product is a good one. While I ring this up, one thing worth a look.

Most people who buy the product end up wanting the add-on too, because add-on benefit. It saves the trip back in a week when you realise you need it.

It is price added to this, and honestly if you would not use it, skip it -- I am not going to talk you into something that sits in a drawer.

Want me to add it, or are you good with just the product today? Either way is completely fine.

When to use

first name likes the product but says it costs more than they expected.

Script

I get it, first name -- it is a real number and I would not pretend otherwise. Let me show you what sits behind it.

The product is built so value point, which is why it lasts where the cheaper ones give out. Spread over how long you will actually use it, the price per use is small.

Compared with comparison, you pay a little more up front to replace it far less often. That is usually the better deal in the end.

If budget is the real sticking point, tell me straight and I will show you an option that costs less -- I would rather you leave happy than oversold.

When to use

first name is buying the product and you are completing the sale.

Script

Perfect, first name -- let me get you sorted. You are going to get good use out of the product.

Quick one before you go: it takes ten seconds to join loyalty program, and if you do it now, signup benefit on this purchase. No spam, just the occasional heads-up on things you actually care about.

Want me to set that up while I bag this? All I need is a phone number or email.

Either way, thank you for coming into store name today. If anything is not right with it, bring it back and ask for me by name.
