When I was in sales one of the first things that I learned was to make a contact list of all your past and present clients and your potential contact base. You do this to keep in touch and have them remember you. It's a great concept but what about the people who really count what a bout family and friends.
What if we took the time to appreciate the ones we love by something simple like sending Birthday cards. It is a simple little act of kindnesses that means so much to everyone you know. There are so many great people in our lives that mean so much to us that we take for granted.
We will all remember the do or die cards. You know the ones that make you look like a jerk if you don't get, like your parents, your spouse and such. But what about all the other special people in your life. What about your Aunts, Uncles and Cousins. What about people at work or church and synagogues. What about other special people in your community. Sending out Birthday cards to all these people with out an motive like sales people have will cause you to gain respect in the eyes of your piers.
I know your thinking cards cost a fortune but not if you buy them in bulk. That is why I go to cards Direct. I can customize the saying in the card and they cost less. Instead of going to a card shop in the mall and paying $3.00 or $4.00 for one card I can buy in bulk and get the cards as low as $1.50 each.

Right you are - it is very important to remember your friends and relatives. Sending a simple greeting card can help showing them you still love them and think of them. Even an e-card will do. The gift is nothing, the care - is all...
