Whenever you get a gift, experience a thoughtful dinner party, or leave after a generous overnight stay at a dear friend's house, a thank you note is a must. Sometimes what holds us back is that we aren't sure what to say. Most of the time, we want to send them but aren't always sure know how to put our great idea of writing a note into action. If you are one of these people, then rest assure, you are not alone. We have all have that feeling when you sit down with a note card and pen and do our best to write something to show appreciation for someone else's kindness. We have some ideas to help you. The thank you note is nothing to fear. In fact, it can quickly become your new favorite past time. When getting set up, keep it simple. You don't have to use elegant words or write anything worthy of awe. Take the pressure off. The most important thing is that you show how much you cherish the gift or courtesy. Of course, you'll need to use some of your own stationery, which we can help you with. Then add your own wording. With a basic outline, it doesn't take long to jot a thank you note. In fact, it's really easy to let others know how much you appreciate them in under five minutes. Before you put pen to paper, you need to know what you are acknowledging the person for. If it is a gift, a dinner, or some other event that involved multiple charity from a lot of people, have someone write down who gave what gift as you open them. That way you are sure not to miss anyone. You might think that showing gratitude is understood, but there are some people who overlook writing a simple "Thank you," even though that was the purpose of the note. So make sure you include this in your opening phrase. Here are some examples: Thank you for the … I am grateful for … I am thankful for … I appreciate the … you get the picture. Open the note with the thanks. Make sure you don't take the lazy way out and be generic. Rather than, "Thanks for the gift", add a personal touch that makes the note seem sincere. This will be the second part of the opening line or first sentence. Something like "Thank you for the pretty notepad"... "I'm so grateful you let me stay in your lovely home"... "I appreciate that you are always there to listen"... be specific here. Then make sure you mention your reason for being thankful. This is when you can go for the feels. Try to include what you are going to do with the gift or how it helped you out. Most of the time this sentence will be the second part of your thank you note. Try something like: "You made me feel like part of the family during my stay" ... "I can't wait to got eat there, it's my favorite". Last but not least, seal the deal. Your closing statement should be something that is precisely personalized just for that person or family that you are sending the thank you note to. You can write one or two sentences, depending on what you want to say and how well you know them. Here are some ways you can close it out: "We would love to return the hospitality next time you are in town" ... "If you ever need someone, I am here for you" ... "You always make other's feel so special". Then just make sure you sign your note with thoughtful emphasize your relationship with the other person. If you have some sort of "friendship catchphrase," this is the place you can use it. Otherwise, keep it classy with something that leaves the other person feeling good about what you are thanking her for. Some examples are: "All the best"... "Affectionately" ... "Your biggest fan" ... "Warmest regards". Here's our most important tip! Don't wait to write the note. The choicest time to send a thank you note is right after the fact. Just do it! If a week or two does pass, don't let that be a reason not to send one. Send the love as soon as you can. |
