A Postcard a Day for Friendship and PR
I’ve always enjoyed writing and sending postcards. Even with the speed and ease of e-mail, instant messaging, and Facebook, I still practice this habit. I’ve discovered it’s very helpful in keeping in touch with customers and business associates, people I meet in my travels, friends and relatives.
I try to write at least one postcard a day. Sometimes these are cards my husband and I make that involve our business news. Others may be cards from my paintings and his photos. There also are cards that contain illustrations from my books. We may add inspirational and motivational sayings. Others simply have my written greeting on the back.
For customers, I might mention new products and services. On holidays and birthdays, I send friendly greetings. I like to keep in touch and find that people seem to appreciate it.
Do you like to receive postcards? One friend called me and said, “I received your card, Mary. I didn’t know people sent cards and letters through the mail any more!”
How do you use postcards in your home business?
