Assorted Birthday Cards – Your New Best Friend!

As a small business owner, I strive to show my appreciation to each of my employees. I expect them to work hard, but they know that I truly care about them. One way that I show my appreciation is by giving each employee a card on their birthday. I recently purchased a box of assorted birthday cards from The Gallery Collection, making this aspect of my job so much easier!

Gone are the days of finding out at the last minute that an employee has a birthday coming up, running to the store, and struggling to find a card that is professional yet warm, and aesthetically pleasing. The Gallery Collection offers beautiful birthday card boxes with a fabulous variety of designs and sentiments printed inside. Now when I learn that an employee has a birthday, I simply reach into my desk and pull out my birthday card box. I’m proud to sign my name on these beautiful, high-quality cards, and I can see the delight in my employees’ faces when they receive one.

If you’re a business owner who is looking for a small gesture to let your employees know that you appreciate them, I highly recommend purchasing a box of assorted birthday cards from The Gallery Collection.

Greeting Card Companies That Fit Our Every Need

As the office manager at a software company, I am responsible for client relations. I am in charge of emails, phone calls, faxes, and, yes, our company greeting cards. For a while, I was searching out each card specifically, either at the local drugstore or online. The search took up so much of my time that my boss thought sending cards was becoming a waste of time. I then began the search for greeting card companies that carried all the cards we needed, and were business appropriate, too.

I had no idea what a gem I had stumbled on to when I first visited the Gallery Collection website. In the year or so since we began ordering from them, I have never had to look elsewhere for bulk greeting cards. We order all of our assorted greeting cards from them, and I am not wasting time looking for individual cards! The arrangement suits everyone, especially my boss. He loves the Gallery Collection cards, as they are exactly the right blend of cost and class that he favors.

We have ordered both the assortment boxes and bulk individual cards from the Gallery Collection, and all of their products have impressed us. Our favorite items are their Thank You cards. We send them out around our company anniversary to thank all of our customers for supporting us through another year. Also, we include a coupon for our anniversary month sale. That way, our customers can share in our special month.

Birthday Cards in Bulk – Both Convenient and Thoughtful

In the United States, 7 billion people buy greeting cards each year. The average household buys about 20 greeting cards with more than a third of them being birthday cards. Birthday cards are an amazing and quick way to show someone that you were thinking of them on their special day. I know, from experience, that sometimes it is hard to remember people’s birthdays. I have had those awkward moments when I was sitting there and was like “Oh no! I forgot to buy them a card” and had to go scramble out to a supermarket to pick something up. Then, I thought of a wonderful idea: to buy birthday cards in bulk!

Birthdays are always going to be around every single year. It is a wonderful idea to buy them in bulk because you never know when you are going to need them. If you forget about someone’s birthday or know that their birthday is coming up, you do not have to go through the added hassle of going to the store, standing at the stand and reading through all the card greetings, and then standing on line to pay for the card you chose. Instead, you can just go into your drawer or closet, pick out a card from your pile, sign your name, and give it to that person to let them know you care on their special day.

Another thing about birthday cards that I have always appreciated is when my place of employment hands me a birthday card. With big corporations, they have thousands of employees and cannot individually think of each employee. At least, that was what I thought until I received a birthday card from my place of employment. When they handed it to me, I knew that someone that was in charge was taking into consideration that their employees are people too.

Business birthday cards should always be incorporated into a company’s arsenal to make their employees feel cared about. I absolutely hate working on my birthday. It is something that I never want to do because it is my special day and do not want to share it with the ins and outs of the work day. On the other hand, receiving a birthday card while on my shift at work will make me feel happy, appreciated, and will make me work hard for my company. You need to lead by example. And leading by example means that if you want your employee to care about the needs of the company, you need to care about the needs of your employees! Sending an employee a card will not only make them feel special, but will give them the motivation to work harder towards the goals of the company.

The Saving Grace of Employee Anniversary Cards

An impeccably dressed woman sits alone in a dimly lit restaurant alternately staring at a slowly dwindling candle and a quickly ticking watch. An hour devoid of food or companionship has passed, and as she gets up to leave her table, she sighs with unmistakable disappointment. She pulls her car into the driveway, walks to the front door, and opens it to see her loving yet absentminded husband engrossed in watching the latest get rich quick infomercial while ingesting copious amounts of tortilla chips and nacho cheese. He forgot her on their anniversary. Nobody wants to be this guy. No company wants to treat their employees this way on their anniversaries either. A great way to show your employees you care is to give them employee anniversary cards to mark their commitment to your organization.

The success of any company ultimately rests on the strength of its employees, and anniversary cards present a simple, tasteful way to show appreciation for their years of dedication and service to your organization. Certainly, gifts are a thoughtful, generous gesture to extend to employees when they reach important milestones. However, anniversary cards have that incomparable power of heartfelt language that can truly tell individuals how you feel. So, if you are unsure about how to thank your arduous employees or accidently overlooked them altogether, you may just find your saving grace in the kind words nestled inside a beautifully designed anniversary card.

Boost Morale – Send Congratulations Cards

When getting together with my friends, the conversation always seems to turn to the workplace. So many of them are not happy with their current working situations.  Oddly enough, the complaints are not only about their salaries. They all seem to have low morale.  I think I have devised an easy way to boost their morale and self-esteem in the work place; send them congratulations cards!

Years ago, I was a manager at a very large hotel.  When you work with such a large group of people sometimes some of these people slip through the cracks.  I had a policy of sending out business congratulations cards.  The cards could be sent out for many reasons. I tried to send a card for small accomplishments as well as for milestones.  Some of the reasons I sent cards were for a promotion, a raise, someone got employee of the month, someone received a complementary letter from a guest.  The card that seems most appreciated was for a job well done.  As they opened the card, their faces would light up.  All it took was a little recognition.

Congratulations cards are a small way that you can make a big difference in office morale. It’s something that all my friends and I agree on!

My First Time Sending Christmas Cards

I’m 35 years old and this is the first year that I sent out Christmas cards. I just never thought it was very important. That’s kind of strange since I really enjoy getting them. It all started as I began wondering about all the cards I get, and why people send them even though they’ve never gotten one in return. I get them mostly from friends and relatives that I usually see around Christmas, and so I get to wish them happy holidays in person. But still, they take the time to send me a card as an added little expression of cheer and I suddenly started to feel a little bit guilty.

Actually, the more I thought about it, the more I realized everyone I know sends me a card. Even the company I work for sends cards out to all the employees, and business Christmas cards to all their customers. So I decided I would send out cards that look awesome, don’t cost much, and don’t require too much time on my part. I got a nice customized greeting, signed them and sent them off.

I know I sound like I’m just “keeping up appearances”, and I guess that’s part of it. And maybe I haven’t got quite the right attitude about it yet, but there’s hope. And this will truly be a Happy New Year, because everyone coming to my party tonight got a card from me!

Fond Memories of Personalized Christmas Cards

The holidays are here, and in the blink of an eye they are gone. And what do we have left to remember this special time of year? The toys? The clothes? The leftovers? Or maybe the hours of repacking all the ornaments and knick knacks? No! It’s the beautiful personalized Christmas cards we have received. You know the ones I’m talking about. The one that came from your oldest and dearest friend. Or the one from your favorite Aunt and Uncle who live too far away to visit during the holidays. Or even the one from your neighbor who you don’t really get enough time to sit with. Even my cats get one from my friend’s cat. They really warm the heart. Christmas cards are the best. Some have such beautiful holiday scenes you can almost picture yourself in that setting.

And although everything gets packed away until next season, the custom Christmas cards you received are still on your table. You open them from time to time and begin to drift away thinking about all the fun the holidays are. Family and friends being together, telling old stories and devouring the feast and goodies made from old family recipes. I just love Christmas and all the joy it brings. But my favorite treasures of all are the Christmas cards that I can read over and over again, until the holiday season comes once again.

Having Boxed Christmas Cards on Hand is a Great Solution

If you think you’ve waited too long to order your business Christmas cards, think again! The Gallery Collection offers an assortment box filled with high quality Christmas cards. I purchased a box in addition my annual Christmas cards order. I never seem to order enough cards the first time around, and then I find myself scrambling to get more…I’m sure some of you can relate to this scenario. These boxed Christmas cards came in handy for employees as well as the few late additions to your client list. The quality of the cards is the same as all the other designs, unlike like the usual department store type. I was happy to receive them very quickly; they shipped in less than two business days! Inside the box, there were 35 cards and 38 envelopes, which saved me quite a bit of money!

Having an assortment of business Christmas cards on hand is a great way to be prepared, and you will never have to run out to the store for a card ever again! I know I will gladly pick up the phone and speak to one of The Gallery Collection’s personable customer service reps. And for those of you who prefer online shopping, orders can be placed via the internet as well. It is such a time saver, to say the least!

Creating Personalized Holiday Cards for Christmas

At first, when the idea of creating personalized holiday cards came up, I was somewhat skeptical about wanting to purchase them for a couple reasons. I thought they might be overly expensive and the people that you send them to would not really appreciate the fact that you went out of your way to personalize them. BUT after careful thought I finally just gave in and purchased some so that I can actually see the type of reaction I would get back from those who I sent them to. And to my surprise the reaction was great! I received nothing but all positive feed back; “I love them,” “this is great!” and “this was the best card I have gotten.” So I guess in the end you really will not know your peers responses until you take the risk and see.

Now, when it comes to Season’s Greetings cards, I have always been a little bit more reluctant to purchase these as appose to other greeting cards during this time of year. The reason for this is due to the fact that there are people from all walks of life, all nationalities and religions. Therefore to buy a mass quantity of cards for your friends and family, your best bet would be to buy holiday cards that are just merely season’s greetings cards. Some people do not celebrate Christmas but may celebrate Hanukah, or there might be some people that may not celebrate Hanukah but may celebrate Christmas, or there even might be some people who you talk to that do not celebrate either and may just look forward to the New Year, you never know. So personalizing season’s greetings cards would be the best bet to satisfy everyone. Keeping the card general shows you are sensitive to their religion or creed but that you still care. You cannot go wrong.

The Three Little Elves That Loved Personalized Holiday Cards!

Every year I usually just stress myself out with trying to get all three of my children to sit for the perfect holiday card to send to friends and family. This year I decided that they are all at an age were they can sign their own names and make it more personal. I wanted personalized holiday cards without the stress of getting the perfect portrait. So I searched the web looking for the “perfect card.” I came across The Gallery Collection late one night since that is the only time I get access to the laptop. The next day I called and had them send me a few samples. I wasn’t expecting much, because it’s only a greeting card, right? Boy was I wrong! One of the samples that I received was of Design 077CX – Cheerful Greetings Card. The excitement I felt of seeing the three elves on the card reminded me of my children. I knew instantly that was our card this season. The next day, I instantly called and placed my order for our cards. The woman I spoke to was so patient and helpful. When we got to the personalization she asked what I wanted. I explained that I was planning on having the whole family sign the cards. She pointed out something I did not even think of – children usually do not want to sit and sign all of those cards. So she told me that they can put all of our signatures on the cards for us. A couple of weeks later my cards arrived and they were breathtaking.

In my excitement to order my holiday cards, I happened to make my order a few short of my Christmas card list. Since I was so pleased with my first choice, I decided to mix it up and order a different design. I went back to the website to browse some more, and I have to say I’ve become quite addicted to this site! I soon found another card, Design 727CW – Purrfect Packages Christmas Card and called again and placed a second order. When my second order arrived I was just as amazed as I was with the first initial order. They were even able to reuse our signatures! The whole family fell in love with our Christmas cards. They even helped stash them in the envelopes and place the stamps on. Sending our cards was stress free this year and I owe it all to The Gallery Collection.
