SHOWING APPRECIATION WITH AN
AUTHENTIC GREETING CARD
Have you received one of those electronic greeting cards?
Not very impressive. Did you ever forget an important
anniversary or birthday? Recently someone told me about
this really cool company that makes it so simple to send an
authentic greeting card; you will wonder why you didn’t hear
about this a long time ago. We are all busy—and now I no
longer have to go to the store, pick out a card, write a little
note, look up the address, find a stamp, and walk out to the
mail box. By the time I do all of that, I usually miss the date
I am trying to recognize in the first place.
The great thing about this program, it is all Internet based.
You can store each of your addresses and dates such as
anniversaries and birthdays, plus you will be reminded when
to send the card. You can choose from thousands of different
cards–and if you are creative, there is a special feature to
add your own personal photographs in the design process.
Another really neat addition, this program will scan in your
personal handwriting and signature so it looks like you
actually handwrote the note and address on the envelope.
Just think of the impact a personal greeting card could
have on your family, clients, staff, or employees. They
even put it in the envelope, add a stamp, and take it to the
post office for you—all for less than 75 cents per card
including postage.
You can watch a video and even sign up for a free account
to send out two cards by visiting this website.
