To sign 'customer,' form both hands into 'C' handshapes. Hold them in front of your upper chest with your palms facing each other. Then, move both hands straight down to your lower torso. This motion is identical to the 'person' marker, but uses the initialized 'C' handshape.
Sign 'customer', then 'always', and 'right'. Make sure the 'C' handshapes move cleanly downwards to clearly establish the subject of the sentence before finishing the thought.
Point to yourself and others for 'we', sign 'have', 'new', and finish with the sign for 'customer'. Keep the downward motion of 'customer' crisp to emphasize the new addition.
Sign 'today', 'customer', and then use the 'how many' sign. Remember to use an inquiring facial expression by furrowing your eyebrows, which is essential for asking a WH-question in ASL.

Yes, the initialized 'C' moving downward is commonly used for both 'customer' and 'client' in ASL. The specific meaning is usually clear from the context of your conversation.
It uses the 'person' (or agent) marker's downward motion, which indicates an individual doing an action or holding a role. Adding the 'C' handshape specifies exactly what kind of person it is.
Yes! Signing 'buy' followed by the 'person' marker translates to 'buyer,' which is a perfectly acceptable and more conceptually accurate way to say 'customer' in many ASL contexts.
