An unexpected kindness.

It’s always the small things that matter isn’t it?

One arrived in the post last week with the electricity bill and a flyer about gutter clearance services.  

It was only an A6 pocket notebook, but it was the good kind with a stiff cover and heavy-weight pages that take a pencil well. And a handwritten card with a simple, thoughtful, message and it made my day. If it is the thought that counts, this one added up to a lot.

The sender runs summertime events, where strangers gather together to eat and to be entertained, so his outlook is very uncertain, which added even more to this small gesture. A cynic might say that he was just touting for business, and I’d say ‘I don’t care Mr Cynic, next summer I’ll be there. He’s earned my ticket’.  Everyone has a right to earn a living and we’re always drawn to spend our money with people who show us care, respect and a little thought.

There’s something particularly pleasing about receiving unexpected gifts in the post. We know the Amazon orders are coming, along with the bills and bank statements, and the only surprises that come in envelopes tend not to be the good kind. The good things really stand out.

We’ve been helping companies to ensure that the right people remember them the right way, for more than twenty years, so we know that these kinds of gestures are what build and maintain real and valuable relationships. 

A lot of people in our business are promoting branded face-masks and shields (and of course we can do them for you too), but we felt we’d rather promote something positive. Something small and meaningful, because you don’t need me to remind you that now is a good time to let people know that you’ll support them and help them. 

We’d be delighted to help you now too.
