How to Inject Spirit As You Sell

How to be adorable when selling

I found a video on this charming South Korean street vendor demonstrating how he makes a traditional dessert.
So, how does he inject spirit as he sells? At least three ways:

1. As a salesman, he knows he has to be captivating.
2. He also knows that in order to relate to his customer, even on from the other side of the World, he has to connect -watch how he does this.

Different Title?

I couldn’t decide if the title really should be: How to be adorable when selling.
