Many of us choose a retail sales environment for employment at some point in our lives. This book is for everyone who is either in, or is about to go into a job that involves direct interaction with customers. Retail can be a challenge at times, but it can also be rewarding. Can I Help You? is a book with an ironic title that explains how to take care of customers from the greeting all the way to the closing and follow-up. The beginning of the book makes it clear that the title phrase is not the best way to greet customers because of its prompting of the most common response, “No thanks, I'm just looking.” Reading this will teach you, as a retail salesperson or associate, how to break the ice and welcome potential customers by using warmth, honesty, and good reputation-building methods. It will assist you in making those customers not only want to buy what you are selling but also become huge fans of your store or business. Can I Help You? is a fun and positive guide for regular people in regular sales jobs that want to succeed and feel good about their success while they are earning money at sales.

Can You Help Me?: Living in the Turbulent World of Huntington Disease shares the surprising, insightful, challenging, and even encouraging stories of patients and their families who live with Huntington Disease. Having seen patients for more than 40 years, Dr Thomas Bird, a pioneer neurogeneticist, adds a human touch to this genetic brain disease that devastates persons during mid-life when they can least afford it. With a brief history of Huntington Disease and the occasional scientific detail, the true heart of the book is the human experience of the disorder: � The man who cannot stay out of prison because he is addicted to being a burglar. � Another man shoots and kills his roommate while watching television and cannot explain why he did it. � The woman with Huntington Disease copes with her depression by using Texas line dancing. � A twelve year old girl with juvenile Huntington Disease who can barely walk and talk, but her classmates rally around with touching and heartfelt support. � And the 72 year old man with late onset Huntington Disease and severe depression is made worse by ECT, but improved (for a while) with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. These are just some of the compelling stories of people of all ages and in all walks of life who feel trapped by a progressive degenerative brain disease from which there is no escape.
