Showing Gratitude


The Art of saying Thank You!

Every human being likes to be appreciated. Employers can boost the moral of their employees with just a simple 'thank you'. Employees in turn can show their appreciations also by just saying 'thank you' when they are appraised. The power of showing gratitude is beyond description, gratitude is shown as a result of good relationships nutured over time or in a short time. For instance, even children are not too small to be appreciated, in her article Nuture Thankfulness in Your child Brenda Nixon states that "It has been said that we’re always teaching . . . sometimes we use words. Remember to say “thank you” to others, but more importantly live a life of appreciation. Your children are watching their first and most influential teacher!”

Your costumers keep coming back as they get warming smiles and ‘thank you’ from you and your employees each time they visit. It makes them feel more secured to trust your company when doing transactions with you.

Joey Faucettein his article "How to tap the power of 'thank you'". stated that, there may be only one day a year devoted to giving thanks. But expressing thanks regularly -- year round -- and doing it well is one of the most profitable business strategies you can have.

Study after study reveals that when you say "Thank you" to your customers, they both spend more money and tell their friends about the exceptional service and products you deliver, increasing your profits. Volumes chronicle how employee productivity zooms when appreciation is expressed, raising your margins. Vendors go the extra mile to extend credit and deliver "just in time" when they hear gratitude regularly, not just in November, and keep your cash flowing.

Giving thanks works in business. But you're already doing more with less and the last thing you want is another item on your to-do list. So what are the most effective and efficient ways for you to express gratitude to these important players in your business' success? Read more...........
