  How do you feel when you are all alone in a shop with only the shopkeeper inside??

  And you only wanna look around and not really buy anything and then the shopkeeper will come up to you and ask what you're looking for...

  i will feel awkward one...don't even dare step into the shop...

  thats why shop owners should employ 1 actor shopper to be in the store everyday..

  some shoppers want to feel valued and entertained while some wants it quiet.. no offence.. I'm being objective here.. I also rather they leave me alone.. trying too hard is quite annoying la..

  i don't really hate them trying to sell me stuffs, it's the confined space and the owner following behind you like a ghost looking at you looking at stuffs that i hate....

  ......I don't feel uneasy at all, in fact it gives me more space and time to browse and ask questions of the products
