🎂 Birthday card

"Happy birthday — your front-desk team thinks of Plaza Tower as a community of neighbors, and we're glad you're one of ours. Hope today is a good one. — Diana & team"

🏡 Move-in anniversary

"Five years at Plaza Tower today. Thanks for being part of what makes this building feel like home. — Linda Park, on behalf of the board"

⭐ Tenure milestone (5/10/15)

"A decade is a long time, and you've been one of the steady hands of this building. We notice. Thank you. — Plaza Tower BOD"

🎉 Welcome card · post-closing

"Welcome to Plaza Tower. We are looking forward to meeting you. Stop by the front desk anytime — you'll know who Diana is by the end of week one. — Linda Park, President"

👶 Welcome baby

"Congratulations on your new arrival. The lobby will be louder, the elevator slower, and we'll all be smiling. — Front desk team"

🕊 Condolence

"With deepest sympathy from your Plaza Tower neighbors. Please let the front desk know if there's anything we can do for the family during this time. — Linda Park & the BOD"

Workflow + safeguards

Sensitive-state suppression

Owners in active NOLA, lien, performance plan, or hostile-state with management = milestones suppressed. Tone-deaf is worse than silence. Schmidt's 8-yr is paused.

Manager approval pre-send

Every touch is queued for manager review before mailing. Manager can edit copy, swap signatory, or skip. No "auto-blast" templates without a human reading.

Front-desk handwrite option

Diana & concierge team handwrite ~30% of cards rather than print. Recipients consistently rate handwritten cards "more meaningful" in NPS open-text.

Data hygiene

Birthdays from welcome-packet self-disclosure only. No Sunbiz / public-records scraping. Owner can pull date of birth at any time via portal preferences.

Bereavement — high-touch

Triggered only by family confirmation, obituary, or court-confirmed decedent record. Concierge attends memorial when invited. Heir-transfer workflow runs separately and respectfully.

NPS lift signal

Owners who receive 2+ milestone touches in a year score on average +4 NPS higher than non-recipients. Self-selecting? Yes. But the cost is $84/mo total — worth it.

Why this exists

Property management is a transactional business that becomes a relational business when the small things are remembered. A handwritten note from Diana on a 5-year anniversary lands harder than any portal feature update. It is also the most reliably positive thing we can do without trying — at $84 a month, the math is uninteresting next to the result.
