Communication, communication, communciation………………..

I saw a trailer for the new film “He’s Just Not That Into You” at the cinema this week.  It looks to be quite a funny movie that throws up some interesting thoughts about the dating game.

Drew Barrymore gave a thoughtful quote about how exhausting it was having to check different portals of communication to see if a boy had returned her call.  Having to check her Blackberry, mobile, email, landline (home and office)…………..All the different portals of technology you had to check!   That applies to office business and home life business as well where we all have so much communication – add on Twitter and Blogging,  sometimes it becomes a communication overload.

So I have found recently that communication you receive by mail is really refreshing to receive – a letter which is clear and written well in a good style can be a great pleasure to read.  I know there is an advent of email marketing because of the low cost however, some of my clients have found going back to the old fashioned mail in the post has elicited a much better response.  The Office section on Microsoft.com also has some very good templates that you can use at home or for work, if you have Microsoft Office installed you can download these for free.
