Why should you vocalize your appreciation? Studies often show an improvement in overall well-being and happiness in those who share their gratitude with others. The question then becomes, when should you send professional thank you notes and why?
Post-interview
One of the most important musts while interviewing is sending a thank you note. Your interviewer will take note if you send your thanks for their time. The professional world agrees that a follow-up email showing your gratitude should be sent no later than 24 hours after the interview. Of course, the key is to make the thank you personally! The best thank you notes are always the ones that use specific moments from the interview itself. Monster has some great templates to choose from if you’re unsure how to craft this email. Likewise, ask your recruiter for any tips he or she may have!
Co-worker favor
Say someone you work with does you a favor. The favor can range from covering a shift to proofreading some copy before it goes to print. Regardless of the actual favor, your gratitude will surely boost your co-worker's mood. Your thank you note can be small, but if you’re feeling crafty- check out Greetabl. You can input pictures and treats along with your message to give a creative edge to your gratitude. Your thank you note will be a hit at the office!
New job opportunity
Perhaps you are parting ways with your company for a new opportunity across the country. While you’re thrilled to begin your new adventure, you should consider saying thanks to your former employer. A handwritten note for your supervisor or department lets them know how grateful you were for the opportunity to grow your company. Likewise, this type of thank you note lets your former employer know you’re looking to stay connected.
Employee appreciation
Last but not least, thank you notes made for your employees help build a more motivated team. Let’s say your team did an outstanding job closing an important sale or booking a high-end client. Engaged bosses will take note of these accomplishments and ensure gratitude is given. Canva is an excellent source to make quick, adorable graphics. They even have an entire section dedicated to making cards, so you all you have to do is type your info & hit print!
