Closing A Deal From A Set Table
I am heading to a meeting to sign a contract that came from appearing and doing; not to be noticed, but because of who you are.
About a week or so ago, I was out working running errands, meeting people, and following up on meetings. I did not plan to stop for lunch because I was not planning on being out that long however, time got ahead and it was late and I was getting a headache from not eating.
I went to one of those Taco Bell/ KFC places and it was right around late afternoon lunch time. there was a line inside and while I was waiting; mind you I am in a suit, I ended up having a brief conversation with a lady and a gentleman about the line, basic customer service, along with how people tend to treat servers. I had placed my order and while I was waiting; I was given my cup to get a drink so, I went to my drink from the fountain and I also got my eating utensils and napkins. I basically set my table like I would at home and waited for my food. I went and got my food and after I sat down, this same lady and gentlemen asked if they could join me, naturally I said yes, they were dressed well like myself.
During the first few minutes, the lady stated that they noticed how I set my table and they were impressed because they always set theirs as well and they wanted to have a nice lunch with me. They stated that my appearance, demeanor, and how I carried myself drew them to me and they wanted to know more about me.
We ate lunch and got to know each other and they asked my what I did for a living and at the end of the lunch, they asked if I would come to their company and discuss security and give a evaluation of their current security in place. So, I did and this morning I am going to sign a contract with their company and it all started because they saw a well dressed professional gentleman and they wanted to get to know me.
