The Power of Sending a Hand Written Thank You Note

The power of thank you notes should not be underestimated. When do you send a thank you note? Do you realize most people do not send thank you notes. Interviewing 10 people I may be lucky to get one thank you note. Remember a thank you note is NOT an email. One day I was interviewing candidates for a sales position. At the end of the day I had nobody stand out. The very next day one of the candidates came in to our office and handed the receptionist a personal thank you note for me. I immediately decided to hire him. He turned out to be one of my best hires. Within two months he was sales person of the month. Stay tuned, I will next write about a secret to make your thank you note so powerful it will set you ahead of all the other candidates.
