Sample Notes. Help Writing a Gift Message
Ready to send a gift, but stuck on the gift message? Get an idea from a sample note.
It's not always easy to compose a gift message to accompany a gift. At Manhattan Fruitier,
we have years of experience assisting our customers with meaningful messages. Certain
gift messages write themselves, for example, Good luck on your first day of work or
Happy Holidays to Everyone. Other gift messages may prove more challenging, for
example the message accompanying a sympathy gift, get well gift, new baby basket,
thank you gift, birthday gift or housewarming gift. Remember, even ordinary occasions
can be elevated to memorable occasions by a special gift accompanied by a sincere note.
General Suggestions on Writing a Gift Message:
- It's a good rule to say what you really mean rather than second guess what you think
the person might be expecting.
- Even though your gift may be late, do not apologize for the tardiness in the first
line as this tends to put the emphasis on you and sets up a defensive tone.
- Make sure you have the proper spelling of the person's name.
- A late gift and note is vastly preferable to no gift and note at all.
- Use notes to introduce a personal element into your business relationships,
especially when someone has done more than what the occasion calls for.
