It can really make or break an evening out if you have a great seat in a restaurant. This short but powerfully request will almost always influence the maitre d' in any restaurant to ensure you one of the best seats in the house.
When calling simple ask in a polite, confident manor; "I'd like the most romantic table you have because we're celebrating tonight, what can you do for me?"
This technique is persuasive on a number of levels. Everyone loves a celebration and if you can help make that celebration even more special then they will go out of their way to help you.
On another level of persuasion. You have also made a specific request and you have embedded the work "because" into the sentence. Because is a very powerful word. Most people react to the word because in a very specific way. By using the work because you have given them a reason for your request and they are much less likely to question it and much more likely to influence them into complying with your request.
So there we have it, combine a direct request, a reason and a celebration into one extra persuasive sentence and you'll be well on your way to securing the best table in the house.
