Mahalo (thank you) for the great reminder! In this age of high technology, we may often need to be reminded of how much a handwritten note can mean to someone.

Also, I loved the fact that you pointed out that Josh was 24 and how it made you feel as parents and of course, Josh too! Wow, a lot of insightful tips!

And yes, thank you to Bob Burg for referring us to your article.

Aloha,
Kellie

Bob,

Love this post (and love Maui! – got Maui’d in Maui. =0). Bob Burg pointed me in your direction. My book, The 7 Levels of Communication: Go from Relationships to Referrals talks about the 7 Steps to a POWER Note and I encourage you to read it when it comes out – it is right (write?!) up your alley. I love the way you broke it down and recognized the power of writing about, rather than to, a contat you’ve met.

Can’t wait to read the rest of your wonderful blog.

Michael

I am confused (and it doesn’t take much for that to happen). This question is for anyone who is willing to reply. What is the difference between a store bought card and one from SOC. Sounds like my first card should be sent to myself so I can see what it looks like.

In reply to Joe Vizi.

Great questions Joe.
I’m a huge fan of thank you cards Joe. In my opinion, I feel that a personal TYN purchased from the store in Darbee’s handwriting is the very best. A close second would be a SOC in Darbee’s handwriting. I think SOC is getting better and better at creating cards that look like I wrote them.

Great post Bob! I am curious though: Would you have the same feelings and opinions if you received the exact same message on a printed card in Darbee’s own hand writing (like send out cards does)? Your answer, and anyone else’s opinion, would really help to provide me with some guidance on this issue.

Bob,

I am a sender of cards (Sendoutcards distributor) and this is exactly showing the power of the handwritten note, that I advocate daily. I am also grateful to Bog Burg for always sharing and finding wonderful and quality content.

Sincerely,

Pamela Freelain
