While we all understand the importance and purpose of thank you notes, why are many companies still missing the mark? When we do something for someone, we expect to hear a respectful thank you and never a dismissive “Well, anyways…”
But when companies forgo thank you notes or use a thoughtless digital form, they show their customer that they have little regard for them. This leaves customers open to being stolen by competitors that are willing to go the extra mile.
WHY PEOPLE FORGO THANK YOU NOTES
So why do so many companies not use thank you notes? When we think of writing thank you notes, we often think of the time we do not have and the effort we would rather dedicate to something else. But what we should think about when it comes to writing thank you notes is how valuable they are to retaining business and building customer loyalty.
While some companies' problem is that they do not send any thank you notes, other companies are struggling because they send the wrong kind of messages. Mass emails and or templated LinkedIn memos show that you are thinking, but are thinking more about yourself and less about your customer. These obstacles provide room for a new group of businesses to grow, utilizing an amazing service that makes personalized, handwritten thank you letters easy, fast, and affordable.

Emails do not feel special, but handwritten letters do. Americans only receive 10 pieces of personalized handwritten mail per year, and 95% of people feel positive about handwritten letters. This makes handwritten cards highly favored and with their 99% open rate, highly effective.
