Good Monday Morning everyone!
I came into the office today to find an envelope on my desk with the address hand-written… something that is not commonly done anymore but still affects me with the sender’s consideration. The letter was from my friends at VistaPrint who I have used on occasion and inside was a “Small Business Pride” decal along with a handwritten note! Again, something that I don’t see much in this too-digital age. The note was thanking me for liking their Facebook Page and for posting during their Small Business Pride week.
Now, I am most assuredly a fan and advocate of Small Business… supporting them is what our business is all about after all… but I think I have neglected to tell my clients exactly how much I truly appreciate them and what they do. I am frequently inspired by their drive, their passion, their courage, their innovation, and their obvious pride in their businesses; and they need to hear that!
So, to all of the Bartley-Hathaway clients out there, look for a little something in the mail from me – handwritten! – since I believe you all deserve to know how wonderful you are and how much you are appreciated by your community. Small Business Pride!
