Tag: birthday cards in bulk

In every stage of my life the most important thing I’ve learned is that people will appreciate being appreciated. From my time in the Army when our commanders acknowledged our birthdays or anniversaries to when I was working in a corporate environment and smiled every time my bosses praised me for a job well done. Even walking down the street and someone saying a simple “Thank you for your service” when they saw my military shirt. It just feels wonderful to know that people care. And it’s a great motivational tool. That’s why when I started my own small business, I didn’t hesitate to order  business Birthday cards from the Gallery Collection. I knew from experience that it was well worth the few extra dollars to let my employees and clients know that they weren’t just a number to me and that they were valued. More so, I wanted them to know they were worth the best quality cards out there, not some cheap dollar store card.

Once you give your employees and clients their special card on their special day, it’s hard not to light up inside just as much as they do. The feeling of making someone smile is great. And you know what, I notice that once you give cards your employees and clients will be more loyal, friendly and appreciative back. It’s not only a good thing to do, but it’s also a great business investment. I find that throughout these years since I started sending cards my business has only gotten stronger. In fact, now I buy my birthday cards in bulk, in case I have new clients who come in. As the Army taught me, it’s always best to be prepared. I wouldn’t want to miss a single chance to reach out to a client and dazzle them with the beautiful cards that we have. They create a lasting impression and it’s always nice to let people know that we’re much more than your average business.

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.
