When you get an order, do you remember to say Thanks

to your customer? If someone requests information from

you, or even your autoresponder, does the message they

get say Thanks? Do any of your replies say Thank you?



Saying those two little words, "Thank You", could be

one of the keys to getting new customers, or getting

return visitors. Return visitors could become return,

buying customers. Even if they only ask for information,

or download free gifts from your site, they deserve to

be acknowledged. If they take the time to visit, and

you're aware of it,why not take the time to tell them

you appreciate it?



If you can, try to 'personalize' it. Why? Because we

are humans, and humans have egos, and egos like to be

stroked, to be recognized. What better way than to

use the person's name? Many times, this just isn't

possible, but for those times when it is, Just

Do It!



For instance, one ezine comes to mind, that I get

every week. One line in the newsletter says, "Hello

BJ, Thank you so much for taking the time to read

this newsletter."



Now, this particular ezine has around 2000 subscribers,

so you know darn well that the publisher just doesn't

have the time to put each of his subscriber's names

on their copies of the ezine. But he still says,

"Thank you." And you know what? Even though he, or his

list manager, probably used a CGI script of some kind

to 'mail merge' our names into the newsletter, it still

tickles my ego. I'll bet it does your, too!



This man took the time to see that all his subscribers

received a Thank You.



Have you thanked YOUR customers...Lately?



Think about it!
