Comments on: Career Distinction – Snail Mail http://www.personalbranding.tv/snail-mail/ Tips and Techniques for Building the Brand of You Fri, 27 Jan 2012 21:36:38 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Robert Bachman http://www.personalbranding.tv/snail-mail/comment-page-1/#comment-104 Robert Bachman Sat, 13 Feb 2010 03:02:22 +0000 http://www.personalbranding.tv/?p=974#comment-104 The handwritten thank you note has become a lost art. I run into job seekers every week that believe the "fast" email is hip, trendy and the way to communicate. It is the personal touch of snail mail note that grabs attention. It is surprising that snail mail makes us different and unique. The handwritten thank you note has become a lost art.

Not only can you use it to send items that are relevant and interesting to your colleagues, friends, or target market, you can also use it to convey your personal brand in a big, bold way. A nicely designed email signature, perhaps with your picture, a colorful "on brand" logo, as well as your contact information, can communicate a wealth of information. Let's not forget that we send out hundreds of emails each day so it's a great idea to make sure they include our mark of distinction.

One of those ways are personal branded stamps - you can get the standard postage rate stamp made with your own design or picture for a few cents or pennies more. When someone gets that snail mail from you what an extra way to exude your brand with them with that unique stamp. Who knows they might even become collectors items! Just my toonies worth.

I relieved a hand written note over the holiday break from a client thanking me for the support over 2009. It was so nice getting a written letter rather than an email.
