I just had this happen to me today. :) Hope you have a great b-day, too. Yes..birthday reminders are great, but I also found that THANKING people who wish you a Happy Birthday can lead to business.

You and I are very alike. I love email cards (both sending and receiving). And thank goodness for Plaxo. I don't use it for much other than the birthday reminders, but those rock. And made sure I didn't forget you today! Ahh. You and I are very alike. I love email cards (both sending and receiving). And thank goodness for Plaxo.

I don't always do that well, I'm not good at cards either but I am working on all of those small touches. I know I appreciate that extra personal touch. I think in this day and age, e-mail and Facebook happy birthday messages are appreciated. Take care and as I said on FB, have a great day with your family!
