How do I Start?

Here are some pointers on card writing.

• Keep your note brief but packed with sincerity and detail. Your busy recipient may put aside a long letter for later, but read a short note immediately.
  
  
• Show interest. Scan the newspapers and other media regularly. If a customer tells you at a conference that she's looking into backpacking and you see an article on the topic, clip and send it with a brief note in a card. If you see in the newspaper that an acquaintance has been promoted, send him a note of congratulations.
  
  
• Keep a variety of cards on hand for birthdays and many occasions. With cardSupply's assortments you will always have a selection of quality cards -- the card you need, when you need it.
  
  
• Say Thanks. If someone has helped you with a big project of given you a great referral, show your appreciation with a sincere thank you note.
