I can’t stress the importance of reaching out in heartfelt ways to connect with the people in your life!  Whether you’re trying to grow your personal relationships by putting a smile on someone’s face next time they go to the mailbox, or you’re looking to stand out with your business relationships, sending a heartfelt card will go miles to help you connect.

One of the coolest things about using the SendOutCards system to send out heartfelt cards is that you have the ability to brand the back of the card.  And that branding is unlimited! If you were to order a stack of branded notecards, you’re stuck with that message until you’ve made your way through the stack.  But with SendOutCards, you have the ability to create whatever brand message you’d like on the back – one card at a time.

You can set up a default branded back to the card that will go out on each card unless you change it.  I have my default branding set up with my real estate business card and a quote about gratitude.

But you can create an unlimited number of alternative templates for the back of your cards that you can choose depending on who you’re sending to and for what purpose.  Here’s a few examples of customized card backs that I use:

Back in 2007, I kept  myself with lots of new clients.  But not a lot of repeat clients.  That’s not good.  I took a good look at my business and realized that I was doing a great job of connecting with people, building rapport, and earning their business.

But KEEPING the business was a whole different scenario.

My appreciation efforts were more on the grand scale – events, client appreciation parties, that sort of thing.  But letting my clients know personally?  I was HORRIBLE at it.  And I knew I needed to fix that fast or I would be out of business in no time flat.

Enter SendOutCards.  The best system for making me look like an Appreciation Aficionado.

Suddenly, my clients were RETURNING to me.  Better yet, they were actually calling me to thank me for the thank you card.  My bottom line was increasing, and now it was with repeat customers.

So what changed?  Now my clients knew they MATTERED to me.

The turkey leftovers are already getting old.  Heard today in the Tait household: “I can’t do another meal with turkey!”  Ahh, these are the sounds of the Christmas season being officially upon us!  You know what else that means?

The inevitable whirlwind that always happens in between Thanksgiving and Christmas has begun. We run around, buying presents, attending parties, and watching as every day slips by.

In all of the hustle, who has time or energy to get to those holiday cards??
