The Lost Art of Thank You Notes: A Simple Way to Win Business

During my years running a granite company, I discovered a powerful yet often overlooked tool for securing clients: the humble thank you note.
After every client meeting, I'd take a few minutes to pen a handwritten note expressing my gratitude for their time and interest. This small gesture consistently set us apart from the competition.
Why did it work?
Time and again, clients told me this simple note was the deciding factor in choosing our company. In a world of emails and text messages, a handwritten thank you note stands out.
The lesson? Don't overlook inexpensive opportunities to build goodwill with potential clients. A few minutes of your time and the cost of a stamp could be your most effective marketing tool.
What are your thoughts on thank you notes in business? Have you experienced their impact firsthand?
