You’re staring at your phone, trying to will it to ring, but it is stubbornly silent. Maybe if you visualize the couple you had an appointment with yesterday, they’ll give you a call. That’s not working either. What can you do while you are waiting for that phone to start ringing off the hook? Why not take the time to send a quick note thanking them for taking the time to meet with you? To help turn leads into customers with a note card, you should:

 

• Order professional looking note cards. There are many card design options for different types of businesses already available, but if you can’t find just the right design, you can create your own note card art. Uploading the art and ordering custom cards is simple and fast.
• Offer a sincere thank you for the time the customer took to meet with you and make sure you mention that you’ll be happy to talk with him or her further.
• Include a discount coupon that is good on the first order or visit. Be careful not to make the discount larger than you can handle financially. A 10% discount can be enticing to someone who is on the fence about using a service. A 50% can make someone who wasn’t planning to use it decide to give it a try.  

 

You need to give gifts to the entire office, your very large family and all the kids’ teachers. Just the thought of shopping for presents that show that you put at least a bit of thought into them is overwhelming. As you place your order of your favorite Christmas cards to wallpaper a house, you have a brilliant idea. You can order personalized note cards for everyone on the list. It will be the easiest before Christmas shopping season ever and you’ll still be able to impress everyone with the fact that you chose gifts just for them.

For the kids on your list, look for fun and colorful designs, like frogs and puppies. Personalize the cards with their nicknames instead of going for more formal full names. Consider adding a set of colorful thank you notes, too. After they open all their Christmas gifts, they’ll need to write some thank you notes! Include some silly pens, some bendy pencils and some character erasers to provide them with a complete child friendly stationary kit.

For adults, tastefully monogrammed notes are always useful. However, there is nothing wrong with opting for something a bit colorful, such as fishing or fashion images.

As fun and easy as it is to fire off emails to family and friends, there still is nothing like the little flutter of excitement people feel when they see an actual piece of snail mail has arrived for them. In fact, because writing letters is a form of expression that hovers on extinction, receiving a written letter from someone you love is even more special than it used to be. No matter how much you want to step back into simpler times, you may be feeling a bit uneasy about filling an entire sheet of notepaper with your thoughts. If this is the case, take a look at note cards. Because of their smaller size, they are a bit less imposing for most potential letter writers. To order note cards that are perfect for sending short notes to friends and family, you should:

 

• Choose a design that is not limited to one or two occasions when you are ordering a larger quantity of a single style. A monogram or a tasteful geometric design would be able to handle more formal content as well as a casual note mentioning a bit of news.
• Consider ordering quantities of 10 cards in a few different fun or romantic designs for times when you’d prefer to use a special card design.
