If you’re searching for the perfect business Christmas cards, look no further than design #610CS, Season’s Greetings Peaceful Winter Card. This tasteful card is printed on a rich, white card stock and features a serene painted scene of gray and white. A lone pine stands in the foreground of a snowy meadow while bare branched snow-covered hardwoods occupy the area to the sides of the pine and the background. Tiny iridescent silver foil snowflakes populate all the branches of the trees allowing the card to “shimmer” as you turn it in your hand. The words “Season’s Greetings” appear almost handwritten in the same glistening foil below the landscape. This selection is elegant in an understated manner and would be perfect to send as a corporate holiday card. It is non-religious in nature and can be sent to all clients and customers, regardless of each one’s particular spirituality. The design conveys a feeling of wintertime tranquility.

Design #528CS – Frosted Wreath Season’s Greetings Card

As the owner of a company that deals in public relations, I am always aware of making sure to treat people fairly when I am trying to get my message across. When it comes each year to sending out business Christmas cards, I try to be especially sensitive not to ruffle anyone’s feathers by sending out the wrong type of holiday cards. That is why I was so happy to receive a sample from The Gallery Collection of design #528CS, Frosted Wreath Season’s Greetings Card.

This holiday card design is published on white, thick matte paper with “Season’s Greetings” printed in a clean-looking, cursive font in a bright, classy-looking silver foil. The wreath – which is raised – contains wonderful detail that can be felt by running one’s fingers over the card itself. In addition, the colors used on the wreath’s details (blue, red, green and silver) are spectacular. Selecting which imprint color to use for the inside of this holiday greeting card will be quite a challenge since all the colors featured on the wreath will look good.

Usually when it comes to selecting a holiday card, I wrack my brain each year because I am an indecisive person when it comes to deciding which holiday greeting to send out. This year, I will have no such problem; thanks to The Gallery Collection and design #528CS, my mind is made up!

Business Christmas Cards and Customer Satisfaction

Customer Service at a business Christmas cards company could be daunting, especially during November and December. At The Gallery Collection it is not just our job; it is a career! We are part of a larger family that truly means it when we say, “Customer satisfaction is our priority.” This has been our objective for 90 years!

Many of our customer service representatives have been working with The Gallery Collection for over 15 years. It can be a challenge at times but our reps are empowered to make their own decisions when speaking with a customer. This empowerment shows in the confidence they have on the phone. It also is recognized by customers. We often get feedback from our customers, and I wanted to take a moment to share some of our customers’ comments with you. Recent, the following has been said about our reps:

  1. “Above & beyond in product and service. Unique cards, perfect service! Overall outstanding.”
  2. “Everything was wonderful. Thanks for making my job easier.”
  3. “Very satisfied with your company. You go out of your way to help customers.”
  4. “With the courteous, friendly ready to assist attitude that your excellent telephone representatives have, my order was handled quickly and was received in a week. Thank you for employing such loyal employees that give complete customer satisfaction.”
  5. “The representative was patient and professional regardless of how many times I asked the same question.”
    “Your service has been outstanding – just continue.”
  6. “I was extremely pleased with the sales rep who helped me with my re-order. She was very kind and extremely patient and understanding.”
  7. “I was pleasantly surprised by such wonderful customer service, which is RARE in today’s world. Thank you so very much.”
  8. “Very prompt and courteous service. I appreciate the samples. Seems we request a lot, but we order from The Gallery Collection because of service & quality. Thanks.”

People rarely take the time to comment on a job well done but they recognize that customer service today is rare at best. Our long-time customers have come to expect superb service when they call The Gallery Collection. Our new customers are amazed at the service provided. Very often they will ask to speak with a supervisor, not with a complaint, but wanting to recognize the representative that helped them. They want to tell someone how impressed they are with the way their call was handled. We recognize that they are spending extra time on the phone with us during what may be a busy day for them to say a job was well done.

We are only human so mistakes can happen, but we are able to take care of those calls knowing that when we say that the problem will be corrected in a timely manner, that promise is backed up by the loyal employees at our plant. They may not be mentioned in customer letters but their dedication to customer satisfaction is evident in every order that is produced.

Kudos to all of our phone personnel for a job well done and to all our other dedicated employees for the efforts they put forth to satisfy our customers and make our job a pleasure. Due to the dedication of all of our employees, we can say with confidence that our Christmas cards are the best quality and each order will be handled with the care that it deserves.

Dark Stock Business Christmas Cards Will Make a Lasting Impression

As the employee selected by my boss each year with the responsibility of sending our business Christmas cards to our clients, this job entails wading through the dozens of holiday cards catalogs mailed to me and selecting which company has the nicest as well as the fairest price. In the past, I have usually chosen a design that is generic in nature since our customers are quite diverse. Some of the corporate holiday cards designs I have selected have been a light buff color or just plain white.

However, this past season I went a different way; I picked a gorgeous black holiday card from The Gallery Collection. The card’s design included the words “Holiday Wishes” in a beautiful gold foil with stars and swirls accenting the sentiment above and below. The detailing on the card was incredible. At first I was hesitant to use this card because you don’t normally see that many dark styles and I wasn’t sure if it would go over well with the recipients who may have been used to receiving more traditional-looking business holiday cards.

But I needn’t have worried! The day after the cards were mailed out, the compliments started coming back to me fast and furious…via emails and direct phone calls. “My goodness, what a terrific-looking design!” “Where did you find such a magnificent card?” “Does this company you bought the cards from have other designs in other dark colors?” These were just a few of the extraordinary responses I received. It was overwhelming.

This year when I am ready to order I am going to have The Gallery Collection’s beautiful catalog right at my desk or maybe even go right their website and check out their business Christmas cards offerings that come in black or perhaps a navy blue or a deep red. Whichever one I choose, I know the design will again be a big hit!

How Corporate Christmas Cards are Like a One Man Band

Corporate Christmas cards can strike a lot of notes, blending into one harmonious and memorable song. If you’re part of a small company, perhaps even a one-person enterprise, you are probably doing the jobs of several people, “wearing different hats,” as it were. With all your personal multi-tasking, you probably appreciate investing in tools that also multi-task to get more bang for your buck. If you plan right, you can realize “perfect pitch” by sending a Christmas card to each of your business contacts.

Your Christmas card can serve as a personal calling card, as a thank you note, and as an advertisement. Company Christmas cards replace the visits and phone calls you don’t have enough time for during the holiday season. A Christmas card can serve as a letter of introduction, a reminder and a recommendation. In short, business Christmas cards play a symphony that “sings your praises.”

First, compose your mailing list to include: all your current customers and vendors; all the prospective customers you’d like to acquire; all the vendors you may one day want to do business with; every employee and service person who helps your business; anyone who may recommend your business, including neighboring businesses; every person who helps in your personal life so that you can better concentrate on business. These are the many parts that harmonize to create a robust business support group.

Next, select a Christmas card that, in both design and greeting, projects your company ethic at its best. Whatever your style, the quality of the Christmas card should be the best you can find. For generations, the social status of individuals and the reliability of businesses have been judged by the quality of the stationery products they used. For maximum benefit, have your Christmas cards professionally printed with your company name and/or logo. If you can budget your time, nothing beats adding a personal handwritten touch to your business Christmas cards.

The goodwill these cheerful Christmas cards facilitate for your business will be music to your ears!

Corporate Christmas Cards aren’t the Only Things that Make Christmas Special

It was Christmas Eve and I was driving home from a business trip. As I was driving along a dimly lit highway, I saw a billboard for an electronic store. It read “Make this Christmas Special.” After seeing that, my mind started to wander. The same question kept popping in my head – “What makes Christmas so special to me?”

Is it the various different lights and decorations that people put up to jazz up their homes?
While these are nice, I was never one for decorations.

Is it receiving corporate Christmas cards at work? These Christmas cards always seemed to lift my spirits, but I don’t think they are the reason either.

Is it the warm apple pie or drinking eggnog? I don’t think this was it, as I don’t like the taste of either of these holiday classics.

Is it the holiday music on the radio? While I do like Christmas music, there is only so much a person can take.

Is it the chill in the air or snow on the ground? I’ve always been a warm weather person, so I don’t think cold weather gives my holiday spirit much of a boost.

Perhaps it is the thrill of shopping for gifts and surprising my loved ones? While I love to surprise people, sometimes the stress of shopping far outweighs the reaction you get.

As my mind continued to wander, I slowly pulled into my driveway. I was gathering my bags when I noticed my wife peeking out the front window (she always gets nervous and anxious when I travel). I stopped in my tracks and recalled the question I was pondering just a few minutes ago in the car. I recognized that it wasn’t the food, the business Christmas cards, or even the gifts that made Christmas so special. It’s spending time with the people you love.

Business Christmas Cards Reach Out to Customers without the Clutter

“The truth will set you free.” So what, you ask, has this to do with business Christmas cards? The truth is, we are all so up to our eyeballs and eardrums in advertising everywhere we turn that we tend to simply tune it out and discount the lofty claims. Some ads do catch our attention – because they are so annoying and so often repeated! Personally, I do give these ads special attention, so I can be sure to avoid these products and businesses whenever possible. I don’t want to reward them for annoying me and don’t want to encourage them to give me more of the same.

I often used to listen to the radio. Now I carry my own commercial-free music with me, room-to-room, house to car to office. I do this so I won’t be harassed with advertising! I rarely watch television anymore, direct from the station…too many commercials. Have you tried changing the channel during the commercial? You get more commercials, maybe even the same one on every channel. I now record shows, just so I can skip commercials. All of this, akin to computer spam, is avoided and filtered out.

So, for goodness’ sake, how do I reach out to my customers?! The truth? The old-fashion way. The nice way. The friendly, neighborly way. Once a year, I send beautiful, top-of-the-line business Christmas cards to everyone I know. Once a year, I also send beautiful top-of-the-line business Thanksgiving cards to my actual customers. During the year, I stay in touch using cards that say Happy Birthday, thinking of you cards, and when warranted get well or congratulations cards. Any reason, however random, will do, to keep myself and my business name in front of clients in a positive and cordial way. I think this habit also reflects our company ethic: to deliver the meat and not just the sizzle. I know it pays off in client loyalty and perhaps as a side effect of those neighborly greeting cards, in the mutually friendly and pleasant way we interact while conducting business.
