Customer thank You cards!


Hello everyone day 4.....yay! I know you may be thinking how can you cover 31 days on the topic of greeting cards? Well, I can cover this topic because there are so many ways you can utilize using greeting cards again in your life. Greeting cards always put a smile on some one's face. How do you feel when you receive a greeting card ? I have sent out so many "heartfelt cards" just to make some one's day and the card speaks for it's self. I have people call me just to say thanks you for the card, it made there day. Specially when you come home from work , and all you see is bills and advertisements!


For today's topic " Customer thank you cards" how to use them for your business. As a business owner your first priority should always be your customer. Why, because they took the time to purchase what you had to sell them. They choose you! And in return you should pay it forward to customer and send them "a thank you card, "a I appreciate you card", a heartfelt just because card", "a birthday card," and most definitely a Christmas/News Years card! You do not want to send your client a card with your business info inside the card....No sale pitches!



If at any time you want to learn how to use all these idea's. Please contact me and I will let you know how. Tomorrow's topic will cover "Employee Training using greeting cards!

Until tomorrow hope you found some idea's here today. Chow

Let's See How Greeting Cards Can Help You!

Today is day 3 of how to utilize greeting cards into your personal life or professional life. How it can help touch the lives of others.......So, you may be thinking how can a greeting card help me in my
personal and or professional life. I can answer that question. For the business professional we will call this topic " T.O.M.A.. What does that stay for? Top Of Mind Awareness which means staying
in front of your clients/customers on a regular basis. By sending a card to your client at least six times a year can do wonders for you and the relationship with your client. So many business professionals do not stay in touch with their client's on a regular basis. They make their sale and move on to the next sale. Example here is a brief story of how a greeting cards helped a car sales man in his success with selling cars and being top sales earner with the most referrals from his clients. His name is Joe and he always felt that by sending out heart felt cards to his clients that it would make him stand out for the rest of his colleges. Joe remembered birthday's, anniversaries, the day the customer purchased their new car, he even sent out "just because I am thinking of you cards on a regular basis. And never not once mentioning his business sales pitch!!!! And his way was by writing out each card....;) But, now you can try his method by using a laptop or a desk top computer!!!!!!
More reasons to use greeting cards tomorrow.......

Hey everyone,
Today is day two to talk about greeting cards and why we need to go back to using them, over
using e-mail and e-cards. We have become so use to e-mailing everything , even greeting cards by the use of e-cards. I had asked a few people what were the biggest reason' s they really do not use greeting cards anymore. And the replies were all about the same. It was starting to become a "inconvenience" time consuming to actually go look for a card. To busy and
always forgetting birthdays. Have we become so "Internet" consumed? And you are probably
wondering why I have the image at the top of my blog that reads " Gourmet gifts".....and what does the picture have to do with greeting cards. Well. just think about it, most of the time when you go buy a greeting card for the birthday or for that special occasion you need a gift right?
Wonder if there was a way you could add a gift with a personalized card to send to family and friends or even clients you may have . I am going to be able to give you a lot of ideas and reasons to go back to using greeting cards again . Until tomorrow my friends!

Greeting Cards VS E-mail and E-cards!

Hello To Everyone,
My name is Donna and this is my first blog ever....So may you can cut
me a little slack....lol I think I will do good with this since really all it
is about is writing . Writing is one of the things I liked in school!
OK let me get started. First you are probably wondering about the
title ... Well, my entire blog will be about greeting cards, and how they
can play a important part in your life! Let me ask you a question?
Within the last month "September" 2010. How many greeting cards
have you actually sent out? On the average about two to three
at the most, or less. Now, how many e-cards have you sent out
within the last month? And e-mails that were heart felt to some
one special? E-cards are sent out through your computer, because
it is "free" most of the time, and quick to use. People like simple, easy and
fast....Specially in today's world. E-mails are barely being read anymore.
So if you "thanked" a customer or client through e-mail, they may not
even receive it. We need to go back to the "old" school and use
Greeting Cards again. Let me explain why 99% of people do not
utilize greeting cards. For one it is time consuming. We work,
take care of our children, and just do not go to the store
to buy cards. I mean your favorite grocery store even carries
greeting cards, because the average consumer goes grocery shopping, so
what a better way , than to pick a greeting card at your local grocery
store. I go to the grocery about every two weeks and I always pass the
greeting card aisle and I rarely see anyone in the the card section.
So, I wonder why. What is going on? let's focus on this tomorrow.
