In today's high-tech business world, where we will rely heavily on voice mail, e-mail, faxes, we can't underestimate the value of a personal note, even if it's a few lines. In fact, many successful executives refer to personal notes as their "secret weapons". Whether you're writing to follow up on a sales call or job interview, congratulate a colleague on a recent promotion, reach out to a client with whom you have lost touch or express your condolences to a co-worker, personal notes can build and strengthen important relationships in the professional world. With hundreds of ideas and sample notes to provide inspiration, Business Notes will help you craft an appropriate message for any situation.
