The 6 Key Elements of Every Thank You Note
1. Start with beautiful paper, envelope, a stamp, and a quality pen.
2. Start with the date and salutation: Send your note, written in black ink within a week of receiving a gift.
3. Say thank you right off. Be specific about why you are writing the note. If you're thanking someone for a monetary gift, refer to their "generosity" rather than mentioning the amount. Be sure to tell them how you plan to use their gift.
4. Compliment the kind gesture: Don't be afraid to go over the top- everyone loves an effusive compliment, as long as it is heartfelt.
5. Allude to the future: Anticipate another get-together.
6. Finish with sincere regards: Reiterate your gratitude, then close the letter on an intimate note, signing your first and last name. Don't forget to proofread before you mail it.
