Virginia Lowe says to send a card after every meeting

by sherries

I spent yesterday at the Women of Visionary Influence Conference in Dallas yesterday. Our last speaker was Victoria Lowe, author of 10 Spiritual Principles of Successful Women, and the woman who built Alert Staffing to $100 million. A fascinating woman who described her meteoric rise to success and wealth and the pain of having a business partner accuse her of stealing money from her own company, Lowe’s primary message was about how to be a woman of excellence.

As she spoke about how she made her company excellent, she mentioned two policies she had implemented company-wide at Alert Staffing. The first was that no one ever greeted anyone from their seat - meaning that everyone stood up to greet people in their office. Simple manners - hardly ever bothered with anymore.

The second policy is the one that fits in here, though. Everyone sent a followup card (or at least an email) after every meeting they attended. Need I say more?
