As an example, consider a problem of how a restaurant could attract more customers. The action verb and object are “attract” and “customers.”
Here are some possible ideas from inserting relational words between these two words:
• Have special community nights in which people are seated across from someone new in order to make new friends (from “attract/across/customers”)
• Offer special low rates for meals eaten before a certain time (from
“attract/before/customers”)
• Place advertising fliers on cars of supermarket customers and offer them a discount in exchange for their grocery receipts (from “attract/near/customers”)
• Hire a public relations firm (from “attract/about/customers”)
• Add an outdoor patio (from “attract/out/customers”)
• Give discounts to overweight people (from “attract/round/customers”)
• Have a special room for people who like to eat on the floor (from “attract/under/customers”)
• Give discounts to customers who help recruit new customers (from “attract/with/customers”)
• Start an eating club with one free meal for every ten purchased (from
“attract/since/customers”)
• Specialize in healthy foods and offer free diet planning (from “attract/within/
customers”)
