Article: Your girlfriend should be made to feel as if she's special. Always speak kindly to her, listen to what she says, and be respectful of her as an individual. Your girlfriend should be more than an object of your lust. Even if you're intimate, keep a lid on it sometimes. Greet her respectfully. When she enters a room, stand and kiss her hand. You could even nod or bow before her if you're feeling really royal. Escort her holding hands while moving. Have a soft kiss on the back of her hand, if passion allows. Comfort her hugging from the back, gently. Whenever need to touch, touch her softly. Be gentle and loving with your girlfriend. Never be rude, give yourself a challenge that you will not be angry or tough to her. Never call her names or insult her, especially during arguments. This will come back to haunt you in a large way and is a fairly common mistake. It may even result in the loss of a relationship. When you are out in public with her on your arm, present her as someone you are blessed to be with, because you are!

Problem: Article: Small businesses often have very different customer service expectations than mega big-box stores. Understanding why people choose your store or business will help you assist your customers in getting exactly what they want out of their interaction with you. If you are a large company, customers will likely expect a wide selection of goods or services, low prices, and quick "in and out" shopping experiences. If you are a small business, personal interaction, knowledge ability, and problem-solving are very important aspects to focus on. You probably cannot offer prices as low as a mega business, but your friendly expertise will make up for it. One study suggests that 70% of customers are willing to pay higher prices if they get excellent, personalized customer service. 81% of customers believe that small businesses provide better customer service overall than big businesses. Having a clear vision statement for your customer service mission is crucial. You will incorporate this vision statement into employee training and will likely also share it with customers. Your vision statement communicates your business's core values, what you're all about. Consider examples from very successful businesses. ACE Hardware, a very successful chain of independently-owned hardware stores, has been repeatedly recognized with awards as being a top customer service provider. Their customer service vision boils down to a very simple statement: "100% helpful." This emphasis on helpfulness, not just friendliness, has helped them compete with big-box stores such as Home Depot and Lowe's. Another example is from Amazon, whose customer service vision is: "We see our customers as invited guests to a party, and we are the hosts. It's our job every day to make every important aspect of the customer experience a little bit better." By using a metaphor (invited guests to a party), this vision statement clearly expresses Amazon's goals: to make customers feel welcomed and appreciated, and create a fun and enjoyable experience shopping there. Your employees are one aspect of your business's public "face," which customers interact with every day. Other representations of your business's mission include your handling of customer service calls and interactions, your location (brick-and-mortar and/or online), and your approachability. This article will cover how to ensure your employees' customer service skills in-depth a little later. In general, consider that they represent the face of your company, so make sure that they are trained to be respectful, friendly, and knowledgeable. How do customers interact with you? Can they get a "live person" to speak to right away, or do they have to go through automated systems? Studies suggest that customers overwhelmingly prefer to speak to a person rather than navigate an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system. If you have social media presences, how quickly do you respond to questions or comments on those accounts? What does your business location look like? Is it laid out well, easy to access, and clearly organized? This applies to brick-and-mortar locations and your online presences. Do your employees and your company structure give the impression that customers are free and welcome to approach you with issues? For example, is your contact information clearly located on your website, and do customers in your physical location know who to ask or where to go with questions? New hires and experienced workers should all know what "quality service" means to you and your business. This definition may be made up of larger ideas, like "consistency, communication, and connection", or more specific ideas that involve specific actions or attitudes. For example, if you own a retail business that sells clothing, your definition of "quality service" may include specifics like "always greet the customer when she walks into the store" or "offer to start a fitting room for a customer if she is holding one or more items in her hand." The definition of "good" customer service is highly dependent on your industry and your customer base. For example, a friendly, talkative salesperson might be desired in a retail setting, but customers might not want their massage therapist to be chatty. Similarly, if your customers are older, they are more likely to appreciate in-person service, whereas younger customers may be more appreciative of easy answers over social media.
Summary: Consider your business type. Create a clear vision statement. Examine the public "face" of your business. Make sure your employees know what "quality service" means to your business.

Fill a large saucepan with 4 cups (960 milliliters) of filtered water. Place the saucepan on the burner, and turn the heat up to medium. Wait for the water to come to a boil. If you want to have a more traditional tea, you can use an authentic Thai tea blend. It would be a good idea to check the ingredients, however, as some Thai tea blends contain yellow or orange dyes to give the tea that traditional orange color. Unfortunately, not all of these dyes are organic. Stir the tea with a long spoon or whisk until the sugar dissolves, then give it a taste. If it is not sweet enough for you, add some more maple syrup or sugar. If you can't find any maple syrup, try agave nectar instead. If you can't find any muscovado sugar, try organic brown sugar or coconut sugar instead. If you are using an authentic Thai tea blend, you can skip the vanilla extract and maple syrup as it will have other flavors in it. Once the tea is cold, fill your glass with ice. Pour the tea into the glass until it is three-quarters of the way full. If you do not have any coconut milk, or if you don't like it, you can use another type of non-dairy milk. Vanilla almond milk and rice milk are both great options!

Bring the water to a boil. Take the saucepan off the burner, add the tea, then let it steep, covered, for 5 minutes. Pour the tea through a fine, mesh sieve into a large pitcher, then stir in the maple syrup, sugar, and vanilla extract. Let the tea chill for 2 to 3 hours in the fridge before pouring it over ice. Top the tea with some coconut milk, then serve it.
