Sharon Leichsenring, artist extraordinaire, paints murals in people’s homes and workspaces. She doesn’t depend upon people spelling her name correctly to find her at SharonPaintsMurals.com–a wise move when you have a challenging last name to remember, pronounce and spell. Make it easy for people to find you.
Sharon and I met a few years ago through EWN – the Entrepreneurial Woman’s Network. I’ve been enjoying Sharon’s newsletters and seeing her at my Remarkable Women’s Network events since we met.
Last week Sharon attended my talk to the Working Women’s Forum in Sandy Hook, CT where I shared my top strategies for business success. One sorely overlooked tip I included was saying “thank you” as part of your sales cycle as well as everyday courtesy. While email and phone thank you’s are fine, the hand-written thank you note stands out now more than ever. Sharon added the cherry on top to my suggestion.
“One of my clients was so pleased with the mural I painted for them that they had a stamp made of the painting. As a thank you, they sent me a sheet of these precious images. I now get to decide who is ‘stamp-worthy’ when I write my thank you’s!”

Wow…Look at that great looking mural….Sharon is really an outstanding muralist!!! I love her work…
@Jan
Amazing, isn’t she? Become her friend, and maybe you’ll rate one of her stamps!
Sharon is an *amazing* muralist — it’s no surprise stamps were made of her work! What a great idea to have stamps made specially tailored…and then to send with thank you notes? Perfect. Will look over your blog — enjoyed this post!
@Regina
A very satisfied client did her the honor, not the USPS, although they should as well. It’s a product anyone can take advantage of–having an image turned into a postage stamp. http://www.zazzle.com/custom/stamps is one resource.
I love the tip about how she wisely chose a URL that didn’t include her unusual last name. Very savvy. Sometimes we get married to the idea that we must include something that no one can remember in our “brand.” Sharon is smart to not go that route.
@Rebecca
It took me several tries to even pronounce Sharon’s name correctly. Now it’s easy, but as we know, people don’t read. She’s a wise woman in many ways.
Wow, gorgeous!
