Organizing Postcards for Business Relations & PR
One system I like to use for keeping in contact with customers is sending postcards. I’ve discussed this at Home Biz Notes, in the post, A Postcard a Day for Friendship and PR. So that you can keep up with this routine, which brings cheer and information to friends, family, customers and business associates, you may want to do a little organizing.
- Keep postcards on hand and with you
- Pick up postcards when you’re traveling
- Use postcards from your own area
- Make special business postcards
- Make postcards from your art and photographs
- If you’re an author, use cards with covers of your books
- Use generic cards with inspiring sayings
- Set up a particular time of day to do your postcard(s)
- Write at least one per day, even if some days you write more
Postcards, even if you send e-mail or use other communications, with handwritten notes shows that you care, are concerned about the person and want to keep in touch. Sometimes you may have printed messages, but at least hand write a greeting and signature.
