Be Thankful
I hope you had a great weekend!   Now is the time to prepare for your November mailings. What are you thankful for? This is a great time to tell your clients that you’re thankful for them. I’ve heard many great ideas over the years, but maybe the most effective also is the simplest: a handwritten notecard to every client that reads, “At this time of year, when I reflect on what I’m most thankful for, I’m thankful for you and the trust that you have placed in me to meet your real estate needs. Wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.”
 
Another great idea I heard was an agent who personally delivered a pie to every client at his/her place of work! He left a few business cards at each drop-off and discovered that the pie recipients’ co-workers were so impressed with his gesture that many called him for their real estate needs.
 
Most important, take the time to show appreciation for your clients, your family and your friends. They, after all, are your true employers.
 
Something to Think About
A recent USA Today article reported that – in today’s technology-driven world – a handwritten note is the best and easiest way to get someone’s attention. 
Weekly Challenge
Send a handwritten note to 10 of your clients. Be sure to remember those who have referred business to you. Use this week’s message as your guide, or get creative with your own way of reaching out with gratitude.
 
Words of Wisdom
“In everyone’s life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.” – Albert Schweitzer
“Often people ask how I manage to be happy despite having no arms and no legs. The quick answer is that I have a choice. I can be angry about not having limbs, or I can be thankful that I have a purpose. I chose gratitude.” – Nick Vujicic
“The smallest act of kindness is worth more than the grandest intention.” – Oscar Wilde
 
“If you concentrate on finding whatever is good in every situation, you will discover that your life will suddenly be filled with gratitude, a feeling that nurtures the soul.” – Harold Kushner
 
“You simply will not be the same person two months from now after consciously giving thanks each day for the abundance that exists in your life. And you will have set in motion an ancient spiritual law: the more you have and are grateful for, the more will be given you.” – Sarah Ban Breathnack
