A Simple Thank You Goes a Long Way

 

Now that we’ve all had some time to get back into work mode after the Thanksgiving holiday, I thought I’d provide a simple reminder…

As an entrepreneur,  it’s important  to regularly develop relationships with the media (on top of everything else you have to do). But it doesn’t need to be difficult.

In fact, the next time  you see a quote or article in the media that includes information about your business, send a quick  thank you to the reporter who wrote the story.

Media members are inundated with negative news, bad press releases and quick deadlines on a daily basis so  they tend to appreciate a note of thanks and a few, nice  comments about their hard work.

With this in mind, it’s also a good idea to regularly thank  customers, partners, employees, and other business associates.

It only takes a few minutes. And best of all,  your quick “thank you” may result in better relationships with the people who can take your business to the next level…fast.  

Try it and let me know what happens…

And with that note, THANK YOU for reading, and I’ll be writing more soon!

Thank-you comes under customer service and good customer service is very important in this economy! It is not enough to only take the order, you must thank the customer for their business.
