The ?SAVE Method? for Remembering a Person's Name ...

Have you ever found yourself in the following situation when you meet someone new:

You: ?Hello. My name is __________.?

New Person: ?My name is ___________.?

You (to yourself): ?GREAT! I?ve already forgotten his name!?

Honestly, this happens to me a lot. I guess I?m just not paying attention.

Today I was reading through John Maxwell?s 25 Ways to Win with People: How to Make Others Feel Like a Million Bucks*. In the chapter on ?Learn Your Mailman?s Name,? he details the SAVE method for remembering names:


S ? Say the name three times in conversation.

A ? Ask a question about hte name (for example, how it is spelled) or about the person.

V ? Visualize the person?s prominent physical or personality feature.

E ? End the conversation with the name.

I?m going to try this with my wife and see if I can remember her name. (That was a joke, people.)
