A Time of THANKS!

Thanksgiving is almost here. I can practically smell the turkey and homemade pumpkin pie ... I mean really homemade ... starting with the actual pumpkin from the field ... not a can.

I'm sure that in your life, as in mine, you can find many, many things to be thankful for this year. But, for now, let's focus on your business life. Who really deserves to be thanked in a special way for helping you with your business? How do you plan to show your appreciation to your customers and clients for putting their faith and trust in you? How will you recognize those who have sent you referrals this year?

I personally like to take the creative approach. Here are five things that worked for me:

1. Host a Dream Book seminar for your clients (if you want to know more, click on Dream Book)
2. Connect with a chiropractor to give free back massages to your best client
3. Offer a free service for your referral partners
4. Host a networking party to thank your referral partners and make specific introductions
5. Send your clients a gift certificate to one of your most significant referral partners

What's your most creative idea for thanking clients or referral partners?
