Another good tip is to put the dog on a short leash, so that when company comes you can pull them down if they jump up.
Making them go lay down when guests first arrive is a really good thing too. The dog only gets to greet company when he is calm. It's good to ignore the dog if he is excited. No eye contact especially. I like the advice above. That's pretty much what we did from the start. Toa learned "off" means don't jump up on furniture or people.
