Communication Target:
Articulate a warm, sincere closing to any conversation that includes:
The customer’s name
Thank them for their business
Invite them back
While maintaining eye contact, and a warm, friendly tone.

4. Closing on a positive note
The closing is the last thing you say to your customer before they leave. You want to make sure that it completes the transaction in a way that makes them feel like you genuinely appreciate their business and want them to return. This is your last chance to make their experience with you memorable, and build a relationship that they will tell others about.
A friendly opening and closing to every conversation will create a consistent experience for your customers and increase customer loyalty and referrals.

5. Make a lasting impression
There are many components to a warm, sincere close. Here are a few things to think about:
Maintain, or re-establish eye contact.
Smile!
Always thank the customer for his/her business, or for coming in today.
Use the customer’s name (again). This makes the interaction personal and creates a connection for the customer.
If any further action or follow up is required for this transaction, repeat your SMART action steps in your closing.
Invite the customer back.
