For five years, we hosted a monthly networking breakfast for $100,000K+ executives. The meeting featured a 30-minute talk by a well-respected authority on career management or job hunting, usually a successful client, major employer, or executive recruiter. I gave each speaker a $50 gift certificate from Barnes & Noble and handwritten thank you note. I personalized the notes to make them memorable. The challenge was to write 60 different notes. Several are included in this collection.

Jack,
You were terrific yesterday—just what the doctor ordered for our friends and clients. Just had one interrupt me in the coffee room to tell me how much he enjoyed you. "Finally," he said, "we heard from someone who's 'been there, done that.'"
I'm extra busy right now, but will contact you soon to schedule breakfast or lunch—and I have a small gift for you for yesterday.
Many thanks again, I enjoy your friendship.
Bill
