>The Power of a Personal Note
>
>The art of writing personal notes is sadly disappearing. A personal note 
>is one of the best ways to connect and re-connect with others. There are 
>several kinds of notes to let people know you're thinking of them.
>    * Thank-You Notes are one of the least expensive and most effective 
> networking tools. You can send them to acknowledge:
>        * Compliments you receive
>        * Gifts given to you
>        * Referrals
>        * Time and consideration
>    * FYI Notes help you keep in touch at any time. You can send many 
> things, such as clippings or articles. This lets them know that you:
>        * Thought of them when you read it
>        * Know what they are interested in
>        * Care about their business
>    * Congratulations notes are a perfect opportunity to let someone know 
> you are cheering them on. You can give these out on many occasions:
>        * Promotions
>        * Awards or Honors
>        * Anniversaries
>    * Nice Talking to (or, Meeting) You Notes help a person to remember 
> you fondly. You can send these out after several events:
>        * Meetings
>        * Chance encounters
>        * Phone conversations
>
>The post office reports that only four percent of mail is personal 
>correspondence. This means that now, more than ever, a handwritten 
>envelope will stand out among the piles of bills and advertisements. A 
>note will get someone's attention, let them know you care about them, 
>remind them of you, and, ultimately, strengthen your network to help you 
>succeed.
