There is no better way to get into the holidays and connect with others than with a handwritten holiday card! Think about the last time you received something handwritten… how did it make you feel? Connected? Important? Sentimental?
You are not alone! Studies have shown that your brain reacts differently and more positively to something handwritten as opposed to the same news shared in an email. This applies to everything from a 3-year-old’s Mother’s Day card, to your business holiday cards.
This season, spread those feelings to all the people surrounding your business! It is important to ensure your employees feel your gratitude around the season of giving. Not just any year, but the past few years we have had in particular, they enjoy all the love and gratitude in the world.
Merry and Brightly Written
Besides spreading the holiday cheer, companies such as Shutterfly suggest there are many reasons why a handwritten holiday card should be your top priority this winter. With a printed photo card, it makes it much easier to send out your thoughts in bulk!
Use this opportunity to maybe reconnect with clients you have lost touch with. This is a low-risk way to gently remind someone that your business is still booming and eager to present them with the solutions they’re looking for.
Through this card, you are wishing someone well and perhaps also sparking positive memories of their experience working with you and your business!
Another reason to send some joy to the world is to express gratitude to clients. Loyal customers will continue to come back to your business or religiously use your services if they feel respected. You would be going the extra mile to say “Thank you for your continued love of our business” with your handwritten holiday card.
“Deck”orate the Halls with Your Holiday Card
The behind the scenes details of your holiday cards are also important! This could be a great way for you to present promotional photos for your company. Your holiday card is a great opportunity to send out a new and improved logo, an updated head shot, or a photo of your new business location.
Use this card as a networking opportunity! Send your holiday card out to potential clients and surrounding offices in your business park. Creating relationships this way is meaningful and long-lasting!
Holiday Givebacks
Take it a step forward and have your cards contain more than a nice message. Have your connect your holiday card to a charity! What a wonderful way to show all of your card recipients that your business is concerned about giving back.
