Over 40 thank you cards are in the mail right now! Clients from over the past five years will be receiving a thank you card and plant-able bird cards with wildflower seeds embedded inside. The note says to “spread the word and seeds.” Although I did really like the idea of sending a “luck garden” – I think I will save that for client-specific anniversaries. I also got custom anniversary stamps!

For now – lots to be thankful for! It was five years ago this month that I got my first client (and he’s still a client today) and my first paid magazine article all in the same week. Back then I did not have a website, media contacts, testimonials, nor business cards!
