Think about sending Thanksgiving cards instead

Of course, you know that the time to send Christmas cards is just around the corner. Or maybe you send Happy Holidays, or something else more generic. But how can you be sure that your card will even be noticed amongst the pile of cards sent out at this time of year?
Some of my clients have decided to send Thanksgiving cards instead of Christmas cards this year. They will use the theme of gratitude and thank their clients or customers for their loyalty and business in the past year. I think it’s a great idea! I told my BNI group last week that I would send Thanksgiving cards to their clients for $1.99, including a custom design, specialty paper and envelope, addressing and postage. That’s how much I believe in this idea. I also completely believe in showing our gratitude to people we have relationships with, whether business or personal relationships.
Remember the statistics that encourage us to contact our clients at least 7 times each year? A Thanksgiving card is unexpected and gratitude produces a warm feeling in their heart.
So think about another way to stand out from the crowd. That’s something I believe we should always consider as business people.
If you think you’re too busy or don’t have enough time to get that kind of project together, think about having your Virtual Assistant do it for you. We’re all set up and ready to get the mailing out on your behalf.

Card sending machine

According to the Guinness Book of Records, Joe Girard was the top salesman of all time. In his 15 year career, he sold 13,001 cars at full retail price! And he did it with absolutely no advertising.

His plan? Every month, he sent a card to every family member, friend, prospect, acquaintance, vendor and customer. By the end of his career he was sending out 13,000 cards each month (with the help of two assistants).

He had all the business he could handle!

It’s important to build relationships by staying in casual contact.

Don’t think you have time to do this? Remember, Joe Girard had two assistants. That’s where your Virtual Assistant comes in.

We design a card with your logo and color scheme. It will look like your business card, letterhead or website. We can include a picture or anything else you wish.

Most people set all the business cards they’ve collected throughout the day on their scanner and email the image to us. You may prefer to type the contact info into an email. Let us know which card you want us to send, and it’s done.

Your success is our ambition!
