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!

Creative Crafts with Business Christmas Cards

I hate to throw away all the beautiful personal and business Christmas cards I’ve received through the years. Yes, I keep all the cards I receive, and all the Christmas cards my family receives too! They are too pretty to throw away and they mark the years as my children are growing up. However, since I have so many of them, sometimes I like to get crafty with all the great cards and designs.

One of the great things you can do with your old personalized Christmas cards is to make garlands that you can hang all around the house and outside (in warm climates) as well when you decorate for the holidays. Begin with using as many horizontal cards as you have. You can use a simple ribbon about 6 to 8 feet long. If you need a longer size, make sure your ribbon is a big spool. You can also use a thin clothesline, string, or wire. Measure the size you need and cut it to size. Start overlapping the horizontal cards over the ribbon and staple them around the ribbon making a thin pocket for the ribbon or string to be enclosed in. To keep the cards in place at about 5 or six inches from each other, staple the card to the string or ribbon in the center top of the card. To make them even prettier, use a pair of pinking shears or craft scissors that are available with the crazy cuts on them to put a beautiful edge on the cards.

You can also glue some glitter onto the card in the art or on the edge of the card, or attach some little rhinestones or colorful buttons or small shiny items on the card to give it some sparkle. You will be surprised at what a difference that makes. If you have vertical Christmas cards to be used you can use a small hole punch to make a hole on the top of the card and run a ribbon or string through it and then hang the card with tying a bow on the banner ribbon or string.

You can also use Christmas cards to create cupcake toppers or decorations. Use any and all of your cards and cut around the art on the front of the cards. You will have to make the art somewhat small to fit nicely on the top of a cupcake. Once that is done, get some little sticks that they sell in the baking aisle of your craft store or food store and glue the art from your cards to the stick.  Once dry, you can stick the decoration right on the top of the cupcake and line them up on a platter and you have beautiful, colorful cupcakes perfect for holiday get-togethers.

Now you have two new ideas for you to try when you have all those beautiful cards that you do not want to throw away!

My Corporate Christmas Cards Victory

Every once in a while my boss will give me some odd jobs, for instance, last year she put me in charge of ordering some Christmas cards for the whole office. Of course I decided to push this off until the last minute. Thank goodness for The Gallery Collection, who certainly saved the day for me. Within a few days I was able to order corporate Christmas cards for the entire office. I wasn’t sure if I would be able to pull it off, but with The Gallery Collection’s helpful customer service representatives, ordering these custom Christmas cards was a breeze. And they turned out to be amazing.

Inside the Christmas cards we were able to include our own company’s logo and even hand written signatures. Although there was no big bonus in it for me, I marked this as a personal victory. I guess you can say my bonus is seeing my card hanging throughout the office on all of my co-workers’ desks.

And now, here we are again. The holiday season is right around the corner and I’m right on top of ordering some beautiful business Christmas cards. I think we may have a new holiday tradition around the office!

Business Christmas Cards are Perfect for the Holidays

I am an owner of a marina of five years now which is year round job. When I first took ownership of my new business I can recall writing all my business Christmas cards out by hand. As my clientele grew so did my time in being extremely involved in overseeing and organizing my day to day workforce. With over 400 customers plus my employees, sub-contractors, suppliers and then some, I couldn’t imagine writing all those Christmas cards out by hand.

As the holidays were nearing I just didn’t know how I would possibly get everything done with Thanksgiving around the corner. So, I decided to do a search online to see how I could simplify my hectic life and I found The Gallery Collection. They have such a large assortment of Christmas cards that if you can’t find what you’re looking for here, you’ll never find it.

As I was skimming over the site I noticed that there were corporate holiday cards as well, which made me think of my grandfather who owned an electrical corporation in Dallas, Texas. I called his secretary and told her about The Gallery Collection. Her reply to me was, “Oh we’ve been using them for years.” I should have known, especially considering how particular my grandfather can be with his choices!

Business Christmas Cards That Work As Gifts

Last year was a tough year for my business.  You see, in the past I sent gifts to many of my clients in appreciation for their continued support.  However, 2011 wasn’t a great year therefore sending a small fruit basket or even a box of candy wasn’t in the budget.  My husband gave me a suggestion; he had received some beautiful sample business Christmas cards in the mail at his office and shared the catalog with me.  The cards were exceptional and with the discounts offered they were well within my budget.

Since I sent the cards last year I received numerous calls and comments from clients about the beautiful corporate holiday cards I sent. I have also done more business with my clients, which I believe was due in no small part to the cards they all received. Sending Christmas cards is a tradition that I intend on keeping for years to come.

Everyone Enjoys Corporate Holiday Cards

Let’s say that corporate Holiday cards are a mandatory thing, required by the policies of your company. Now, really think about it. Would it be as thoughtful and generous to receive if you as an employee were required to send them out to all of your fellow co-workers? What if, when required to send out these mandatory cards, you had to pay for them with your own cash, and were not given any type of re-imbursement. Or worse! The payment for the cards came directly out of your check for that previous week. Makes you think twice about the next time you decide to want to send out Christmas cards right?

Luckily, that isn’t the case with most companies. And that’s what makes receiving business Christmas cards so great. It isn’t something forced upon you. When you receive your card, you know it comes from the heart, and that your boss, or a company you work with, or a business associate, is truly wishing you the best for the holiday season. And it is definitely something people remember.

So, if you want to stand out in the crowd this holiday season, make sure you remember corporate holiday cards for everyone!

The Best Business Christmas Cards in the World

I used to go to the store to purchase my greeting cards for my friends and family but things have certainly changed now that I work for a company that produces the most elegant, high quality business Christmas cards and corporate greeting cards I’ve ever seen. The card line is called The Gallery Collection, and true to the name, there’s a gallery of cards to select from…what you might say from soup to nuts in greeting cards. There are Christmas cards, Thanksgiving cards, thank you cards, anniversary cards, birthday cards…you name it, we have it. There’s a greeting card for every occasion, and what we don’t have, we can find a card design that would be appropriate for the occasion and customize the inside of the card to meet your needs.

Working for a custom Christmas cards company I am fortunate to be able to purchase cards for my personal use. When I give a Gallery Collection card to someone, the comments I receive when the envelope is opened to reveal the card inside makes me proud to work for the company. Let’s just say I score big brownie points with family and friends who receive a card from me. We all agree the cards are quite impressive!

Making Business Christmas Cards Personal

Sending business Christmas cards is an ideal way to pass on cheer and goodwill to your colleagues and clients.

There are so many cards to choose from out there – how do you find one that stands out from all the others?  You personalize them to make them your own!   I can confidently say that now but a couple of years ago I was sending out the same ole same ole cards and greetings until one day I was the recipient of a Christmas card that caught my attention.  I realize that I was one of many to receive this card but I honestly felt the message inside the card was sincere and personal and directed only at me.  I guess that’s the trick when searching for Christmas cards – find one that has a festive cover then find the perfect sentiment to make the card your own.  The difference really can bring a smile to the faces of those who receive them; it certainly brought one to mine.

I have a small business and enjoy sending cards to my clients each year.  I no longer send cards with a common greeting inside; I choose a card cover that suits my style and then express my sincere thanks and good wishes using my own words.  I have to admit, when sending out holiday cards in the past I don’t recall anyone bringing up the subject of even receiving my cards.  Since creating my own messages and making them a little more personal, I have received compliments and thanks for them.

Yes, I Intend to Send Corporate Christmas Cards

Did you say this is socially unacceptable and politically incorrect? Bah humbug. I know the reason for the Christmas season and will stay with its original purpose. Peace on earth, goodwill to men, a Christmas Eve service at a hometown church with a tranquil nativity scene in front to remind us of what is most important in life. Corporate Christmas cards will be mailed out this year because there is nothing more American.

Exactly what are these seasonal greetings? They are verbs of action representing communications for the purpose of expressing good will. It can be the impetus to a productive conversation or a brief, sweet acknowledgement of an individual’s attendance on this earth. Think about it; even through the mailing of business Christmas cards we shamelessly accost one another with professional friendship, pay our due respects, and express kind wishes. Then through the discovery, reading, and handling of a brightly adorned Christmas card, a private moment in time is created in what could be a dreary, as-usual day. The recipient’s heart is warmed and made glad.

This uncomplicated extension of corporate kindliness is a sign of cultured society where perceived differences can be put aside to bring parties together in mutual regard for each other. Christmas is a national celebration that developed as our nation expanded and matured, and today the celebration still stands.

Business Christmas Cards Keep The Conversation Going

In this crazy world of everyone being in a rush, and nobody seeming to have time to stop and smell the roses, I have found a great conversation starter that everyone seems to enjoy, and it keeps the lines of communication open between me and my customers.  Want to know what it is?  I simply ask them, (usually at the beginning of the checkout process).  ‘So, did you receive my business Christmas cards this year?” And since I usually already know the answer will be “yes”, I am quick to follow up with a “Thank you for your continued support”.  This also opens the door and you would be surprised how many people keep talking afterwards.

This little step also brings a smile to their face, and now that I know that this customer is a happy one, they are much more likely to return to my store.  So, if you have a business and are looking for ways to drum up business, definately consider sending out Christmas cards this year, and be sure to use my special trick to engage the customer while improving customer service. Your customers and your bottom line will thank you!
