第5部分(第2页)

One rainy afternoon an elderly lady walked into a Philadelphia department store。Most of the clerks ignored her;bet on solicitous young man asked if he could help her。When she replied that she was just waiting for the rain to end;he didnt try to sell her something she didnt try to sell her something she didnt want;and he didnt turn his back。Instead he brought her a chair。

雨停之底这位老妇人向这位年轻人说了声谢谢,并向他 要了一张名片,几个月之后这家店东收到一封信,信中要求派 这位年轻人往苏格兰收取装潢一整座城堡的订单2这封信就 是这位老妇人写的,而她正是美国钢铁大王卡内基的母亲。

When the rain let up;the lady thanked the young man and asked for his card。 A few months passed; and the owner of the store received a letter asking that this young man be sent to Scotland to take orders for furnishing an entire castle!The letter writer was the elderly lady for whom the clerk had provided a chair。She also happened to be Andrew Carnegies mother。

当这位年轻人打包准备去苏格兰时,他已升格为这家百 货公司的合伙人了。这个例子是报酬增加律的最佳写照,而报酬增加原因,就在于他比别人付出更多的关心和礼貌。

By the time the young clerk had his bags packed for Scotland;he was a prater in that department store。This was the result of the Law of Increasing Returns; all because he had shown a little concern and courtesy when no one else would。

补偿律

The Law of pensation

补偿律可确保当你付出之后,会得到某种相同种类的回 报,为了得到这种回报,你必须尽力提供你能提供的服务(当 然必须具备最佳心态),并且必须不要求得到立即的回报,而 且即使得不到立即回报,你也应该尽力提供服务。

The Law of pensation ensures that everything you do will bring you some sort of result of the same kind。To benefit form this;you must always render the most service you are capable of;with the best attitude;and you must do so regardless of your immediate pensation;even if it appears you will receive no immediate pensation。

此一法则所着重的,并非一些意料之外的回报(例如让位 给老年人所得到的回报),而是诚恳和热心的付出。只有不诚 恳,而且懒惰的人才想以较少的代价(甚至最好不要付出任何 代价)获得较大利益。如果你想要以抬高价钱,或偷工减料的 方式获利的话,必将尝到恶果。

The issue here is not some unlooked…for benefit;such as might e from offering a chair to a senior citizen。It is a matter of honesty and earnest effort。Dishonest;lazy people look to get something for less than is required…or even nothing。If you decide to boost your profits by raising your rates and providing less service;its going to catch up with you。

美国AT&T电话公司花了极大的功夫才学到这门课程。它的费率愈来愈高,但却没有为客户提供更佳的服务,结果大 量客户不再选择它的长途电话服务,而转向其他公司。虽然 AT&T很快地察觉到错误,并削减费率以及开始改善服务品质,但是它还是得面对流失掉原有客户市场。经过这次教训 之后,AT&T学会了什么叫做补偿率。

AT&T learned this lesson the hard way。Its rates continued advantages。Along came deregulation。 MCI;and Sprint;and bang!Customers began switching their long…distance service by the hundreds of thousands。AT&T saw its error quickly;though;cut its rates;and began offering innovative packages。It still faces heavy petition;but it now knows quite a bit about the Law of pensation。

我们来看看另一个具有对比性的例子——活动房屋的建造人柯灵顿。当安德尔在佛罗里达州进行销售冲刺时,柯灵 顿的公司——柯灵顿房屋公司——正在快速成长之中,虽然 市场对新活动房屋的需求量非常大,但他并没有像一般生意 人一样趁机哄抬价格。相反的,柯员顿公司仍然维持他的售 价,但却大幅度提高他的产量。补偿律在这个例子里的意义,是该公司仍然维持他合理的利润;它的另一层意义,则在于数以千计的柯灵顿活动房屋购买者,已深深记住该公司的名字,并且在下一次要购买时会先考虑到它。

In contrast;consider mobile home builder Jim Clayton。His pany;Clayton Homes;was already growing rapidly when Hunrricane Andrew decimated South Florida。The need for new mobile homes was enormous and fast。 Clayton could have followed the examples of many Florida business owners and jacked his prices skyward。Instead Clayton Homes kept its prices level and jacked its production skyward。The Lay of pensation meant that the pany still made a reasonable profit on its services;it also means that thousands of home buyers in South Florida have reason to remember Clayton Homes very fondly when it es to their next purchase。

在你的日常生活中,恐怕找不到这么具有戏剧性的例子, 但最具体的范例,就是你的薪水袋。如果你不满意你目前薪水,请记住:在你的付出超过所得之前,你没有权利要求更多 的薪水。Tour day…to…day life may not offer such dramatic examples;but the most concrete one is your pasychaeck。If you are dissatisfied with its size;remember:Until you begin to render more service than you are already being paid for;you are not entitled to any more pay。

当你确信你的付出超过所得时,不妨问一问你自己,为什 么补偿律没有应验在你身上?

It you are convinced that you are already doing more work than you are being ;paid for;ask yourself why the Law of pensation doesnt seem to be working。

但可悲的是,大多数的人都不想订定付出超过所得的明 确目标,无论他们多么努力工作,幸运轮总是从他们身旁滚 过,因为他们既不期待也不需要更多的所得。

The sad fact is that most people have no definite purpose greater than getting that paycheck No matter how hard they work;the wheel of fortune turns right past them because they neither expect nor demand more。

你应该做些什么才能显示你的期待,并且需要得到比你 目前更多的所得呢?

What are you doing that shows you expect and demand?

赢得有利的注意

Gaining Favorable Attention

需要你付出的人,总是会给你一些回报,你可能不是能满 足客户要求的惟一供应者,你应如何使消费者特别注意你呢? 其中的窍门就在于提供物超所值的服务。

People who need your work have things to offer you。You probably are not the only person capable of providing what they need。What will distinguish you from the crowd? The attention you generate by doing more than you are being paid to do。

有天早晨,史瓦布来到他所经营的一家钢铁工厂,看到有 一位公司的储备速记员也在那里。当史瓦布问他为什么这么 早来公司时,这位储备速记员说他是来看看史瓦布先生是否 有什么急的信件或电报要处理。他比其他员工早到了好几个 小时来上班。

Early one morning Charles Schwab arrived at one of the steel mills he managed。There; in the dawns faint light; was a clerk from the panys stenography pool。When Schwab wondered what he was doing there were any letters or telegrams Schwab wanted sent right away。It would be hours before the rest of the staff arrived。

史瓦布向这位员工说了声“谢谢”,并告诉他晚一点会需要他的帮忙。当天晚上史瓦布
