What says “I love your business” like receiving Corporate holiday cards? I am not sure if some companies realize how important it is to send their customers Christmas cards. As a customer it so nice to be recognized with a note of holiday cheer. It feels great to be acknowledged and appreciated.
A few companies were really using their heads when they made their decisions on what to send; they chose Calendar cards. These cards not only include the customary holiday wishes, but address and phone number of the business as well! Last year, after the holiday season ended, I put all these special cards in my kitchen drawer. As the year progressed, there was no doubt about which companies I would give my repeat business to, as I had their information right at my fingertips!
I agree. All companies should send holiday cards. Employees, customers and vendors do appreciate when they receive a holiday card. The networking of it is very important. They would probably notice if they are not receiving them.
I enjoy receiving Christmas cards from companies that I have used during the year. It is more personal than an email and is definitely a smart way to keep business.
The nice thing about using the calendar card is that if I have an appointment with that company or medical practice, I can circle the date right on the card and hang it where I won’t forget it. It’s also a handy way to keep track of how many times I needed someone’s services.
My favorite are the calendar cards. I get one from my doctor’s office every year, and I hang it on my fridge. It is convenient to have their number and address easily accessible whenever I need it. Businesses should think of it as instant advertising.
