A Note on Follow Up

Always ask for a reply from the person you are trying to reach.

Sometimes the reply will come from an assistant, but that’s usually fine. Time has been taken, and your message has been received.

Compare replies with your friend and save and share any communications you receive.

Are you getting specific individual replies, or a form-letter reply?

If you have not heard back in a day or two, call the office. Phone calls are especially good for following up on any type of communication.

Getting a reply and doing follow ups ensure that your voice is not forgotten or ignored.
