《52週人脈計畫 - 第19週 寄感謝卡》

第19週 　寄感謝卡

大家都知道寄感謝卡是很好的習慣，只要花幾分鐘的時間就能寫好。大家都喜愛這種舊式的、不用什麼科技、由人親手寫的感謝卡。感謝卡是非常能打動人心的，因為大家會感激寫卡片的人所付出的時間和努力。但是真正的問題是，既然知道有這些好處，你自己去年又寄出了多少張感謝卡？

人脈高手不會光說不練，他們會真的寄出卡片。如果你渴望躋身於那29%成功經營人脈的企業，最好訂出一套作法讓自己持續寄感謝卡。方法要盡量簡單：

• 購買一套適當的感謝卡；
• 列出最近曾經加倍努力幫助你的人；
• 每天花個幾分鐘寄感謝卡；
• 手邊要有充足的感謝卡，讓你在有空時就能取用；
• 不要想夾帶一張自己的名片；
• 利用每一次機會表達感謝。

Week 19 　Send thank-you cards to people

Everyone knows sending thank-you notes is a good idea. It only takes a couple of minutes to do. People love the old-fashioned low-tech personally handwritten thank-you notes. They are a very nice touch as people appreciate the time and effort involved. But the real question is even knowing all these benefits, how many thank-you notes did you personally send out last year?

Networkers don't just talk about thank-you notes. They actually send them. If you aspire to join the 29 percent of businesses that do networking well, you'd better set up some systems to send out thank-you notes on a consistent basis. Keep it simple:

• Purcxocks of cards handy so you can do this in your spare time.
• Ignore the urge to include your business card.
• Thank people every opportunity you get.
