Comment on Business Lunch Etiquette Tip - Handwritten Thank You’s by Liz

Nice tip… definitely agreed that nowadays with digital this and that, we as people seem to have lost the art and penmanship when it comes to writing on paper and sharing the gift of thanks.

I’m sure even for those going on job interviews, seeking investors and that next business deal, that a hand written “thanks for the opportunity”, would help set them apart from the clutter of resume’s and names on paper.

Good stuff,

will check out the articles you mentioned as well.

Comment on Don’t be Ruled by Fear: Business Lunches are a Great Investment by Craig Peters

You may be right, Gray. The Boston Globe says that people are doing more business over breakfast:

“The economic crash has exacerbated a generational shift away from power lunches and those mythical three-martini chasers, O’Neill said. Real business is now done early, from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., over made-to-order omelets and mixed berry pancakes at upscale breakfast spots such as Meritage at the Boston Harbor Hotel.”

I landed one of my favorite design gigs over lunch at Paragon back in the day. Got a little table tucked in the corner. Quick, friendly staff if I remember correctly.

Yes, I couldn’t agree more about hand-written thank you notes. It goes a long way and I love receiving them myself. It adds that extra special touch, makes you stand out, and keeps you in your client’s head. It might even be a way to follow up on a subject you discussed at the business lunch.
