You're right in that most everyone enjoys the pat on the back. If you leave them with a great feeing of appreciation, they tend to be even more driven to refer. We live in a world where not enough appreciation is shown....so the more we acknowledge and thank, the more we seperate ourselves from the others who don't. Thanks.

Acknowledging someone publicly is very powerful because people enjoy the recognition in front of others. It really makes them feel valued. Many times it is not possible to recognize people in public for those occasions a nice token of appreciation can be a nice hand written note or card and a gift along with the card. Hi John,
