Some people think that thank you cards are outdated, but I don’t consider it. In fact, I love my thank you cards and I always use them and I know that other people always value it.
I send out a card, of course, when people are nice enough to bring me a gift over the holidays or a just because present. I also send when out whenever another couple has invited my house over for dinner. I’m always very grateful when people have us over and I always want to express my appreciation.
Other people must treasure them because they always mention the beautiful cards that I send out and they keep inviting us over! So that must be a good signal.
I also send out a big thank you to clients. Every time I close a sale at work, make a point to send one of my personal cards that says thank you for your business and for your time. I look forward to working hard for you in order to make your campaign a success.
I also send out cards for more simple matters in life, too, and I found that it is a wonderful way to put a smile on other people’s faces. If, for some unusual reason, I can’t take the car pool that week and I switch with another mother, I send a card to let her know that I treasure her help. I’ve even gotten telephone calls thanking me for my thank you card and I know it gives a positive impression because that mother is always very willing to help me out in demanding situations.
Every time I order more cards, I take time to decide what kind of font I would like to purpose and what colors I feel like using for the month. Sometime I pick a cute design to go on the top of the card and I never pick the same card twice- I always like to shake things up!
