		<description><![CDATA[The Power of Continued Customer Connections
When your customer or contact gave you his or her information, that was permission to begin the process of "affinity bonding."  Affinity bonding, discussed in more detail in "The 88 Marketing Tips That Will Change Your Life!" is really little more than building a gradually strenthening relationship bond with each customer.  (Sign up for the "The 88 Marketing Tips That Will Change Your Life!" at http://www.MarketingSuccessBlueprint.com/)

Each follow-up contact you have with the customer, over time, further strengthens that affinity bond developing a very strong and lasting relationship with him or her.

		<description><![CDATA[ The Power of Personal Thank You Notes

You are not in the business you think you're in!  You are actually in the business of building personal relationships.  Accepting this principle and deploying it via multiple channels is an extremely powerful business building technique.
