Helping The Book Store Clerk Help You
When the book store clerk is looking for a series of books for you, be certain to point out their the location in another store. Example: " At the other store, they were at the end of a shelf."
When the book store clerk is standing, unoccupied, at the information desk while wearing a store name tag, be sure to ask him clarifying questions. Example A: "Do you work here?" Example B: "Can you help me find a book?" Example C: "Can I ask you a question?"
When you see a book on display that you do not care for, be sure the book store clerk is aware of your displeasure by facing the merchandise upside down, or turning the cover toward the fixture.
When you have a personal agenda you would like to forward, please feel free to use merchandise you do not own and place it in prominent places in the store. Alternately, feel free to select several books on a topic and arrange them neatly on a table in the cafe. Your guerilla marketing is sure to bring joy to the lives of many and change to the world.
And finally, when the book store clerk has in good faith done what he or she can do to help you find what you came looking for, but the book store chain does not carry the item or happen to have it in stock, be sure to use your cell phone to contact a competing bookstore as a way to punish the clerk for not having what you want.
