I did an experiment I set up my spice blend popup I sat one day I stood the next time i went Same spot Same foot traffic I sold much more when i stood up as customers walked near When you are sitting People think they're bothering you if you remain seated Remaining seated as they approach acts as a repellant Potential customers also get the impression you're not busy so your product isn't good Its best to look busy cleaning or straightening as people walk by That gives the impression you are preparing for their visit
In Marine boot camp, our Drill Instructors would ask us if we wanted to be good Marines or dead Marines.. then proceeded to kick our ass for some screw up we did. I'm still alive and your helping the vendors to stay alive. Keep doing it!!! THX
This is the best advice. I'm going to have clean uniforms, extra shirts, aprons, body spray, and sweat rags with me. I'm about to start a hot dog stand based on all the great advice you've given on your videos and website. Thank you for all the knowledge and well thought out info!
I love watching your videos even when they're old or doesn't even have to do with my business idea as I am able to apply all the advice you offer to my business. Thanks!

THANKS FOR THE GREAT TIPS.. I AM SELLING TENNESSEE COWBOY BEEF JERKY .. I AM GOING TO USE THE TIP “HAVE YOUR PRICES SO THEY CAN SEE ,WITHOUT WALKING UP! THANKS
I'd have to agree. Mom with 3 hungry kids will keep it moving if you look like a bum. Everyone gives you a once over before they walk up. I do it to this day. Keep'er clean!
@@p-millz No not at all the fact that it was an Asinine statement was instantaneous 🤗however I just came across this video at that time , 🙄and made the comment Have a blessed day...
I’m about the start a cottage food cart. My mom told me to mention somewhere on a sign that our food is made in a pet free home. My mom will not eat any home based pre made food because she’s afraid people have pets. Many people kiss their pets on the mouth. I love animals, but that would be a turn off if someone was making food with 20 cats helping packaging and labeling food. Dogs licking spoons clean. Birds on the shoulder. Gross.
I personally don't like being served food from a scruffy guy with a beard and long hair. It kinda puts me on edge and I just can't shake the idea of one of those hairs ending up in my food. Definitely prefer a clean shaven food server.
I did an experiment
I set up my spice blend popup
I sat one day
I stood the next time i went
Same spot
Same foot traffic
I sold much more when i stood up as customers walked near
When you are sitting
People think they're bothering you if you remain seated
Remaining seated as they approach acts as a repellant
Potential customers also get the impression you're not busy so your product isn't good
Its best to look busy cleaning or straightening as people walk by
That gives the impression you are preparing for their visit
Amen! and Af'nMen!

I don't care what you're into your appearance means a lot to success.

Agree 100%! I'm the same way. My neighbors have indoor pets and I won't eat anything they bring us.
A dirty chef is the worst..
Yup.

Good job on quitting smoking!! If you relapse, try vaping. Its healthier.
It's how I quit but had some family emergencies stress my ass out and now I'm smoking again.
Hahaha brutal.
Is it not sad u have to tell people stuff like that...
Hot chicks get more sales.
