A thank-you note that shows I noticed
After a gift, a stay, or someone doing more than they had to.
Write a thank-you note that names the specific thing they did rather than the category, and says what difference it made. Four to six sentences, warm rather than effusive. End with something real instead of a vague promise to catch up. Use only what I give you, and mark the one sentence I could cut to shorten it. What they did, and who they are:
Making it yours
- Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
- Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
- If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.
Cards, toasts and notes. The words that go with it: card messages, toasts, thank-yous, condolences and invitations.
