Write a Business Thank-You Note

Author : Mike McDaniel

Have you seen that thing on TV where the gal tells
the nerd she wonders why he never asked her to
marry him and he stumbles and says "Thank You" and
she turns to butter?

The point of the message is that "Thank You" goes
a long way to making people feel better.

Personally and in business, develop the "Thank
You" habit.

While it is generally expected to send a written
thank-you for gifts and special favors, it is also
appropriate to send one for employment interviews
and new business contacts. However, the most
powerful thank-you note is the one that's
unexpected.

Here are some "Thank You" points to consider

You should hand write it. With the exception
below, don't use your computer to print it, or to
print the address label and please don't use email
for this most personal communication.

If you have that nifty computer font that was made
from your own handwriting, your could slip the
card in your printer. Be sure the font really
looks like the way you write. Didn't know about
this? There are several companies that do it, here
is a link to one as an example only:

You can use plain paper, or you can use a thank
you card. Some folks have personalized
cards created, some buy them at the Hallmark. You
can use a fold over card, or a single hard card in
an envelope or a post card. It's not the
messenger, its the message.

Be brief. All you are saying is Thank You. And say
it only once.

No need to gush, be personal, say thank you and
why.

Be sincere.

When you send a thank you note, it will have a
great impact, "Because no one else does it"
