Snail Mail Greeting Cards - let's face it, the time for e-cards has passed. Many ISPs don't deliver them because e-cards cannot pass the SPAM filters. Even if the get delivered, recipients won't open them because they think it may infect their cojmputer with a virus. If using a work computer - most work computers block that type of email.

Many corporate companies and the US Government are only allowing plain text and all HTML is blocked from their computers. There is a place where you can go to send snail mail greeting cards for as litttle as $1.00 including postage. The neat thing isn that you can go in at anytime and set the cards up to go a predetermined dates and not give it another thought.

Keep in touch with customers, clients, family and friends. Be your own boss, too. www.GreetingCardsToGo.com - proceeds go to local Habitat for Humanity. But you may collect residual income.

Create an e group of friends past clients and people who will accept your email. Build this group over time and call them ( you know that phone thingy ) and even go drop by there office just to say hi. But there office not there home, Then periodically email them something of interest about the neighborhood, Realestate or something that relates to them personally or there business. This will be far more effective than any snail mail ever could be.

Everyone likes to receive a birthday or anniversary card in the mail. Some times snail mail means "special".

I like snail mail when it comes to special events. Ones that actually have a hand written note on them are obviously better than a computer generated card in my opinion. If they have an actual stamp instead of a postage meter it just has a more personal touch.

Well spoken, snail mail has a long shelf life as well as a personal touch. When we get handwritten notes we jump up and down. Just think what your client will do.

Wynne I like them both! A handwritten note is special but an emailacard can also be special! You have made it easy on yourself to send snail mail and that is great especially the personal touch. The thing we all understand ... staying in touch and letting people know that we care, is what is important. Hope we keep finding more ways to "reach out and touch someone."

Wynne: Do you own the company? It appears that the contact number for the company is your cell phone?

It also appears that this is a rather new set-up.

I guess I'm in the minority here but, IMHO, snail mail is one of the WORST ways to advertize!

Sam, these cards can be written in your own handwriting. SendOUTCards is the name of the parent company. GreetingCardsToGo.com is my company. Ihave used these ards for about a year now for personal and business use.

Marc, you are missing then point, these are birthday cards, thank you cards, advertising cards if you like. You can create your own card with picture plus feature. There is so much there. If anyone would like me to send them a card email me off then list to sold@wynnea.com ( put greetingcardstogo in the subject line)

We had someone from sendout cards come to our office. It seems like a good idea, you can log on and send cards in just minutes.
