spiff

Spiff is a term often used in informal contexts to describe something that has been made neater, cleaner, or more attractive. It can refer to a person, an object, or even a place. For example, a person might get a "spiff" by dressing up in new clothes or getting a haircut. An object might be "spiffed up" by being polished, painted, or otherwise refurbished. A room could be "spiffed" by tidying it, cleaning it, or rearranging the furniture.

The word "spiff" is also used as a verb, meaning to make something spiffy. To spiff up an old car, for instance, would involve cleaning and polishing it to make it look its best. Similarly, a company might "spiff up" its website by updating its design and content. The origin of the word is somewhat unclear, but it is thought to be related to the word "spick-and-span," which means perfectly clean.

In some sales contexts, a "spiff" can also refer to an incentive or bonus paid to salespeople for selling a particular product or achieving a certain sales target. These are often monetary rewards designed to motivate the sales team. The term is generally understood to imply an improvement in appearance or an added incentive.
