Assumptive Close

My daughter (age 6) is in Daisy Scouts (formerly Brownies), the youngest division of Girl Scouts. It is the time of year to sell Girl Scout cookies. She approached the father of her brother's friend for her first sale (no training, no advice from anybody, yet):

"Mr. Rxxx, which Girl Scout cookies would you like to buy today?"

As a person who has had much success in sales, I spotted the "Assumptive Close" immediately, and was impressed to see it used by a Kindergartener.

PS - he bought two boxes, despite having prior "orders" from his wife not to buy any!
