Start Note-working today! “Handwriting notes is the single most effective thing we do to grow our business. The Providence Group has been in the top 25 teams of RE/MAX Greater Atlanta for the past two years. We write personal notes to our clients on a regular basis. This level of personal contact is what differentiates us from other professionals in real estate.” John Damiano “As a way of generating a warm reception to a cold call, I created a campaign using Profits in Progress note cards and a custom leather coaster from The Promo Shop. I handwrote a note to the CEO of my targeted client, including a leather coaster. I followed up with a phone call to make sure he received his 'gift'. As a result of the first 100 mailed, I was able to personally talk with 30 of the recipients, set up 6 appointments and close 4 sales. As a comparison, prior to this campaign, it was considered a success to set 1 appointment for every 100 calls.” Jeff Marks “I use the Note-working Success System cards for everyone-including my car repair man, vendors, and clients. I even sent one to the teller at my bank that helped me one day. Weeks later when I went back to the bank she called me over and she still had the card at her station. She was still excited about receiving it. At that moment I realized the power of that note. I was still in the forefront of her mind.” “Today I spend more time thanking people with a short note. I have noticed a positive difference in the way people talk to me when I run into them or call them on the phone in their warmth and smiles. I have to say it makes me more aware too. I have even used some of my cards as sympathy cards. One of the things I like with this system is that you literally are given sample messages to write. Plus, I keep my notes short, which take no time at all.” Nancy Sfameni “I had a very difficult account which took more time than I thought, but it came out great and my clients were happy. With the glow of a job well done I capitalized and proceeded to do something I have never done before, I decided to send a 'Thanks for the referral' note card with a twist. I sent it before I actually got the referral! In the card I wrote a personal note boldly stating, 'We did a really good job for you and the only way I get business is if my happy customers send me referrals.' Then I bluntly added, 'Would you send me one?' Within two days of sending the card I got a referral back from him. He must have sent the referral as soon as he opened my card. Will I do it again in this bold manner? Perhaps, but one thing for sure, I will always send a 'Thanks for the referral' card.” Mark Higgins “I used Profits in Progress to custom design and mail holiday cards to my list of clients. The handwritten cards really gave the mailing a personal touch. And, because it's such a busy time of year - it felt so good to have that off my plate.” Dixie Speck, owner “Changing jobs is stressful. I retained Profits in Progress to help during a job change - moving from one law firm to another. They sent out a handwritten note to all of my professional contacts. People appreciated receiving my new contact information included in a handwritten note. An excellent way to stand out and relieve stress.” Connie Echols “In order to establish myself as a new Hummer Sales and Leasing associate, I worked with Profits in Progress to develop a procedure of keeping in contact with my clients using handwritten note cards. Each new customer receives a handwritten note the first week after they purchase a car. Then they receive notes at intervals of 30 days, 6 months and 1 year later. Additional Birthday, Thanksgiving and Christmas cards are also mailed out.” “Each of my handwritten note cards thanks my customers for their purchase and offers an incentive of a $100 (in cash or to their charity of choice) if they refer a new customer. In my business, repeat customers and referrals are critical to success. I've received lots of comments that my clients like their cards. On average, I sell 10-20 cars per month with 4-6 of them as repeat or referral customers. That's about 35-40% of my business, so it's very successful. I went from a few customers to over 400 in less than two years.” Bob Leyda “The Note-working Success System is working really well for me. As managing director of eWomenNetwork, the #1 marketing and media resource for women in business, I always have a reason to write notes to members and guests that come to our planned events. I'm a real people person, and keeping in touch with others is important to me. I believe sending a note card is like sending a smile through the mail. The feedback I get is very positive.” “I also like the tracking system that comes with each month's pack of note cards. I wear a lot of hats and that added organization makes the process simpler. Plus, since I tend to be wordy, the short sample messages that Profits in Progress presents also makes it quicker to get that note out. It's a perfect match.” Donna Willard |
