Didn't propose a date before I got her number. What is the most efficient way to get her to meet me up?
First, let me give you guys some information on the last few days:

Monday
This Monday I started talking with a girl on the street that works as a seller and tries to sell people subscriptions.
Approached her with questions about what shes selling and then got direct with her through subtle but funny flirting.
Got her number and ended the conversation on a high note.

Tusday
Some small conversation with her to build rapport. Witty and cool conversations.

Wednesday
Since the feeling I got from her is that she is somewhat interested but not that experienced with meeting guys for dates (shes 18 soon 19)
I went INDIRECT-DIRECT with my suggestionl and told her that I will be close to where she works on Friday (today) and that I have an hour of my time free and something in the way of "I have an hour or less of just waiting for my meeting. Come by and let's end the workweek with something sweet/nice. Don't let me hanging all alone or I will start talking with strangers to get the time going"

I felt her a bit reserved and told her "I will text you on friday and you can see if u have any time to come by."
She answered with something like: "Yes, you can do that [smiley face]"

Friday

My question.
I didn't suggest a meeting before I took her number.
I just recently learned through some articles here written by Ricardus and Chase that the process should always be
to avoid the problem of endless text messaging and to be more efficient by:

1. Suggest a meeting first
2. Get her contactinformation
3. Contact her only for the reason to handle logistics

But because I did'nt follow that process (because I did'n't know) I now find myself in the same old situation.
When finding myself in the situation of having flirted with her + traded contactinfo + but not suggested a meeting What is the best way to communicate for her to meet me up?
I see there is two possible ways of communicating for her that I want to meet her.

1. Be DIRECT with her and don't beat around the bush. Asking her when shes free and suggest a meeting even though I didn't suggest it in person and even though I haven't built rapport via text.
2. Be Indirect-Direct with her (like i did in this situation). Build some small rapport with her after getting her contactinformation and then ask her out in a casual/non-needy/I have some time over/Something I will do anyway.

Tips on how to proceed in a sitaution like this is GREATLY appreciated.

Thank You!

Sounds like you were brought up that you have to be the 1 to make the move?

If it doesn't seem you're at the advantage, then try having her be the 1 to ask you out. That's the other free-will idea you seem to be lacking.
 
the right date makes getting her back home a piece of cake

Man, he's gonna be waiting a long time.

Well, I'll clarify a little.

I wasn't saying.

-Do A.
-Then wait to see if she'll ask you out.

What I meant is.

-Attract her via doing/acting A.
-If that doesn't work, continue attracting her via doing/acting B.
-If she still don't ask you out or whatever, continue attracting her via doing/acting C.

And you keep doing doing it until.

-You either run out of ideas.
-She asks you out.
-Or she flakes.

Flakes could be she gives the defeat flag and acknowledges she can't handle it anymore, which means you did a good job.
