I have always struggled to keep in touch with clients and follow up with prospects on a regular basis. My intentions were there, but time was always against me so I hardly ever sent Thank You Cards to my client’s. About three years ago that all changed, I was introduced to an online Greeting Card Sending Service called Send Out Cards. With over 15,000 stock cards I was able to send thank you cards and nice to meet you cards, even birthday greeting cards to my clients with a simple click of my mouse.
These were not ecards, or cards I printed myself, but high resolution cards printed on recycled stock, stuffed in an envelope, stamped with a real postage stamp, then mailed via the postal service for under a buck. Send Out Cards also game me the option to upload my own pictures for a minimal additional charge – making the greeting cards more personalized.
The system also allowed me to set up multiple greeting card and postcard campaigns. So I could keep in touch with clients and prospects throughout the year with several cards. I simply set up a campaign and hit send and the cards are sent out on auto pilot for me, based on the distribution times I set up.
As a business owner it is easy to forget about the simple little things that really matter. Using a Greeting Card Sending Service can make all the difference in keeping old clients and gaining new ones as well. If you have employees you can also recognize their efforts by sending the occasional card of encouragement and you will never forget an employee’s birthday again with the automated reminder system that Send Out Cards provides.
If you send out cards of appreciation your business will grow, it has been provide over and over again. Appreciation Marketing using Greeting Cards is a very effective tool for the success of any business.
If you would like to send out a couple of cards on me – contact me here.
To your success!

Send Out Cards
Tim,
I can’t tell you how much time and money I’m saving with these online cards, and the impact to the recipient has been huge. Getting calls and emails from people who thank me for thinking of them is pretty cool. I can’t imagine not using them now. I mean…heading to Hallmark, staring at all those cards to pick one, then go get some stamps, then go to the post office to mail it. UGH! No more! This is the coolest thing since Netflix.
Cheers,
Mike

Hi Tim,
We so often underestimate the impact that small gestures can have on our circle of influence, and I think that includes friends, family and customers. I have also been guilty of great intentions but limited follow-through. I personally LOVE it when I get real mail that doesn’t require me sending anyone money! And I have a trunk full of hand-written cards and letters I have received over the years. Interesting thing is there is not one email in the bunch. A high-quality card helps us stand out from others who are trying to build relationships and helps us build our personal brand. Thanks for reminding us that little things matter. Have a POWERFUL week, Allegra
