Thank your Customers
1. Send a hand-written note — Some people swear by the hand-written note, especially in this day of email and social media, where hand-written notes get rarer each passing year. Get some great looking professional note cards with blank interiors for writing short notes. Start now and write out a few each day, to spread out the work.
2
2. Send a card — A holiday, Thanksgiving or New Year’s card seems like a small thing. But to recipients, that paper card brings a warm feeling. It shows you thought of them.
3
3. Give cookies or other food — Who can resist awesome goodies? Luckily there are plenty of places in local towns as well as online where you can order something delectable and send it to thank your customers. Mmm, mmm, good.

4. Make a charitable donation — Here’s an idea: make a gift to a worthy charity in lieu of giving an actual gift. Tell your customers what you’d done and why you did it. If you have an email newsletter, you can mention it in the newsletter. Or include a mention with a hand-written note.

5. Hold an open house — An afternoon open house or an evening holiday party is a great way to celebrate with and thank your customers. In some businesses the event becomes a tradition that customers, employees and partners alike look forward to. Have something special to remember the event by – a Santa offering small gifts and taking photos, or goodie bags to go. Print up some festive invitations — and voila!

7. Give a freebie — Give your customers something for free. A retailer or etailer could provide a coupon code for a freebie or free shipping. A bakery could have a flash Twitter or Facebook freebie offering a free muffin that week to customers. Technology providers could give a free product upgrade to long-time customers. Whatever your business model, there’s a way to give something for free to thank your customers.
6. Send a calendar — everyone loves receiving calendars, especially ones with beautiful images. Send a calendar to each customer with your logo printed on it. Better yet, create a custom calendar using your own company photographs — perhaps showing your team, that award you won, some happy customers. Or just include some beautiful images of local scenic areas.
