Show Gratitude
While you are celebrating your success with your team, remember to show gratitude to all the rest who helped achieve the success.
Your product or service was sold because a team of people helped to take it from concept to customer. Make sure you thank them all for their efforts. Appreciating your team, your business partners and your associates will help make stronger relationships for the future.
Your production team should be thanked for their efforts in providing products that satisfied the customer need. Without their care and attention to detail the product you are selling may come up short of customer expectations and you may struggle to get a re-order.
Your finance team needs to be thanked as they made efforts to ensure that you had the finances to purchase the goods required to make the material required by the customer. They also helped you adjust the customer payments against their invoices to ensure that you had smooth sailing with the customer with regard to payments.
Your supply chain team needs to be thanked as they were able to procure materials necessary for production in time and were able to ship them out in time for customers to receive them.
Also remember the outsourced services and partners who contributed to your business success. Without the services provided by them you could not help achieve your targets. It is therefore important that you appreciate their efforts.
Courtesy is the lubricant that keeps the corporate machinery performing smoothly. Show courtesy to everyone who has contributed to your success. Your appreciation of their efforts will help boost morale and ensure that the services and culture of cooperation continues.
