Agents: Are You Using Plaxo ECards?

Hi Active Rain,

My databas is both online and with Outlook.  With Outlook, I use Sonoma Enterprise's add on for real estate called Active Agent. It's good! And I sync with Plaxo too, which is what I want to write about today.

A cool thing about Plaxo (with the paid membership) is the ecards. I send them out for certain holidays or birthdays, and people are always delighted to get them.

Last year and this year, I sent out Plaxo ECards to my Jewish friends who were celebrating Rosh Hashahana, the Jewish New Year. (I'm Catholic, but I like to recognize others' important days.) Plaxo has about a dozen choices for the Jewish New Year, and it provides suggested wording to go with it - but you can change it too.

Every time I send these types of greetings out, whether for a religious or secular holiday, birthday or anniversary, I always get a VERY positive response. (This is especially true if I'm acknowledging a holiday that I myself don't celebrate.) The clients and friends are always so tickled that I remembered and sent good wishes for the hoiday with NO commercial message attached.

It has been a great tool for me. Are you using it? If not, let me suggest that you take a look at Plaxo and make use of the great cards that come with the subscription!

Sharing ideas - this is what Active Rain is all about!

Best wishes from Silicon Valley,

Mary
