Thank-You Email That Strengthens Relationships

## CONTEXT
Thank-you notes are an underused superpower in business. In 2026, a sincere, specific thank-you stands out in a sea of automated messages and quietly strengthens relationships, careers, and deals. The difference between a forgettable thanks and a memorable one is specificity: naming exactly what the person did and the difference it made.
