When I had my last staff she was e same and she was an older girl.
When visitors came we got them to ignore her so she wasn't getting any attention for her hyper behaviour, then when she calmed the visitors would say hello.
There are a lot more experienced dog owners on her though prob with some better advice but the above is what I did!

Can't add to that really. Staffs love attention, so if you ignore them when they do something you don't like (no interractions at all, no eye contact, touching or speaking to them) and give calm praise when they're calm, you should get things to improve.
If he's constantly hyper, you may need to look at his food.
