\n

Tomorrow, most of us will sit down with our family and friends to eat turkey and give thanks for the blessings in our lives. I\u2019m also thanking our business partners, customers, employees and anyone who has helped us be successful.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are three ways to thank your customers, employees and vendors this holiday season and throughout the year.<\/p>\n

\"Thank1. Write a letter<\/strong><\/p>\n

Taking the time to pen a handwritten letter in the day and age of instant communication stands out as a genuine appreciation. Don\u2019t forget to be specific. Say what you are thankful for and point out what the person or group actually has done.<\/p>\n

2. Say it on social media<\/strong><\/p>\n

Most of us have heard the phrase, \u201cpraise in public.\u201d Social media outlets give you the opportunity to publicly thank a loyal customer, refer business to your vendors and spotlight a superstar employee. One of my favorite ideas came from entreprenuer.com \u2013 profile one of your best clients on your company blog, explaining why you appreciate him or her so much.<\/p>\n

3. Give value<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes words aren\u2019t enough. Think outside of the box on ways to show appreciation. Give your employees small incentives or have customer or vendor appreciation days with special discounts or giveaways. You don\u2019t have to give over-the-top, expensive gifts. It\u2019s the thought that counts.<\/p>\n

Whatever method you choose, let others know you appreciate them. I\u2019d love to hear how you show gratitude for the people in your business life. Please post your ideas in the comment section below.<\/p>\n

I dedicate this blog to you, our awesome reader. You are appreciated!<\/p>\n
