Consider Taking Tips to Heart --DeWese

6) Make it a daily practice to think about a person you have never complimented. It could be your spouse or significant other (if you rarely or never compliment your life companion, shame on you. You are a hopeless wretch who should get out of sales and become a security guard at an atomic waste site.) It could be someone in the bindery. Maybe your receptionist. You don't need a specific incident to prompt a compliment. Think about your target and what characteristic(s) deserve praise. Then walk right up to them and say, "Shirley, I think about this often, but have neglected to ever tell you that you are the face of this company. You do a great job greeting our customers on the phone and when they come to the plant."
