我们在商务场合中，尤其在和客户聊天的时候，要表现得非常礼貌，很多人在见到客户急着想要进入正题，忽略了small talk，其实是一个重大错误，那么我们在会议开始前见到客户该说些什么更礼貌呢？我们看看Joy and Chris是怎么用的！

J: Hi guys I’m Joy.
 
C: And I’m Chris. Today we are gonna talk about an expression: Did you have any trouble getting here? It’s usually used to be polite when you are meeting someone. You are asking them about their travel to the location.
 
J: Yup and this is essential for business meetings. For instance, you are waiting for your client to arrive at your company to talk over business. When they arrive you want to create a friendly connection right away. So you can ask them: Did you have any trouble getting here? And if this is their first time visiting, you can also say: Did you have any trouble finding us? Here’s an example of how it can be used in a conversation:
 

C: Hi Anna. It’s so nice to see you again.
 
J: Hi Greg. It’s great seeing you again too!
 
C: It’s rush hour right now. Did you have any trouble getting here?
 
J: Oh it was no problem. I actually left early so traffic was alright.

 
C: Did you have any trouble finding our channel? Don’t forget to share it with your friends and family!
 
J: And if you are looking for private English classes, feel free to contact us! Talk to you next time! Bye!
