Define what kind of guests you have and what they expect from you as
waiter with experience. Please do not belong to one of two groups of
annoying or robot waiters. The first group are those waiters which approach
to guest is constrained and they are like robots with CD inside with
repetitive welcome text. The second group are the waiters which walking
from table to table and give guests more enthusiasm than guests receive it
for their birthday. The language they use is full of adjectives like “incredible”
or “special. Do not be one of them!
Look for the signals from guests and try to see what kind of approach they
expect from you and follow their wishes. Find a way to communicate with
guests and build a relationship with them. Try to find the opportunity to
start a conversation that is not related to food or drink, and leave
the customer to decide whether to talk or not. The only way is to be honest,
because the guests certainly smell insincerity. Customers appreciate this
approach to serving and communication and unreservedly reward waiter
which is not one of the robot waiters.

The key to earn good returns is not to focus on making money, you have
to be focused on your customer. It is primary principle of service in the
hospitality industry.
Focusing on the customer
Focusing on the customer is the key which will ensure you to make the
money you want at the end of your shift. You will probably sometimes get
that feeling that you are doing endlessly without expected results. But what
you need to do is to dedicate to each guest and make him happy. You don’t
need to think about number of guests or how much it all together costs.
Instead, focus primarily on the best way to make money, and that is to
focus on the guests, that is your favor.
Hospitality is the process of making people welcome and offering all amenities for a
comfortable stay. There is a general misconception that it comprises only of hotels,
restaurants and bars. It is strictly not so. Spas, golf courses in resorts,
entertainment facilities like casinos also form an integral part of the hospitality
sector apart from the usual accommodation and food and beverage. Because of its
specialized characteristics there is a huge need for qualified personnel to run this
sector.Thereareexclusivecoursesthattrainpeopletobeprofessionalsin
this field. And above everything else, jobs in this sector are highly paid with
opportunities for career growth.
Hospitality refers to the relationship between a guest and a host, wherein
the host receives the guest with goodwill, including the reception and
entertainment of guests, visitors, or strangers. Louis, chevalier de Jaucourt
describes hospitality in the Encyclopedia as the virtue of a great soul that
cares for the whole universe through the ties of humanity.
Hospitality ethics is a discipline that studies this usage of hospitality.
