Step1
Make sure you do what the robber says. When the robber asks you something, answer them. When the robber asks you to do something, do it. Comply at all times to survive.
Step2
Keep your hands in the sight of the robber at all times. Most of the time, the robber is just as scared and nervous as you. If he suspects you are up to something, he might jump the gun and shoot.
Step3
Stay where you are. Many people try to chase the robber down the street, and they end up getting hurt. Leave the chasing to the police, and stay safely in the same spot until the police come.

Keep calm and do not try to be a hero. People think they can save their business and the people in it by attacking the robber when she turns her back. Many people who try this tactic have been hurt or even killed in the process. Your ultimate goal is to survive.
Step5
Hand over whatever the robber asks for. Money and merchandise is not important in this case. Your life is the most valuable thing, and you do not want to risk it over jewelery or car parts.
