Eric Lau
Hi, I'm so glad you're here. I work as a cashier in 7 eleven since 2016. I've spent over a decade working in and around customer-facing teams. I've seen firsthand how the right words at the right moment can completely transform a customer relationship, and I've also made plenty of mistakes that taught me just as much. This course is a distillation of everything I wish I'd had when I was starting out: practical, honest, and built around real situations you'll actually face. My goal isn't to turn you into a scripted robot — it's to give you the confidence and tools to be genuinely helpful, every single time. Let's get started.
