Holiday Cards or E-cards?
I have run into a few blogs lately that have asked this question.
Do people still mail out cards or do they send out e-cards? I read that 1.5 billion holiday cards are sent each year and approximatly 50 million e-greeting cards are sent between Thanksgiving and the New Year. 60% of people still send printed holiday cards. There is some debate about whether or not an e-card conveys the same depth of emotion which a hand picked, hand written card is thought to express. Everyone would agree that e-cards are less expensive but does that make them less personal as well is the debate.
Whether you send an actual card or a e-greeting whatever you do... make it memorable:
Make people feel good:Lets face it. Cards make people feel good. Cards that are personalized or signed in some way let the recipient know you are thinking about them. Funny cards or cards with cartoons or pictures of your sales staff in the Ugly Christmas sweaters are always good.
Cards keep you organized and get your customer list in order. Getting a snail mail or email address list together for holiday's cards forces you to get your client or prospect list organized for the New Year. Come January you have a clean database for client and prospect mailings.
One more impression:They say marketing your business is a game of inches. No matter how you do it holiday greetings allow you to stay in front of customers and remind them that you would love to do business with them.
You are organized and on top of your game:You get points for efficiency and organization as a company when your professional looking cards arrive in your customer or prospects mail box.
