Personalized, Professional Mailings Provide Results
    In a bid to help companies keep in touch and retain clients, Business Greetings, Inc., has taken Christmas cards to the next level -- business greetings cards sent throughout the year to attract and retain business. Business Greetings helps businesses make a lasting impression all year long. The most obvious contact is a client’s birthday. But in an effort to make a company stand out and to boost sales, many companies have begun mailing cards for other occasions.
 

        In today’s high-tech environment, it is critical for businesses to keep in personal touch with their customers and we call that Constant Contact. Sending personalized greeting cards is an inexpensive, reliable means of doing just that. Amidst the hastily written e-mails and impersonal faxes, a greeting card truly stands out. “Our goal is to help busy business people create friendships, make partnerships and sustain loyalties,” says Karen Harrington, President of Business Greetings, Inc. “We handle all of the details so you and your employees can focus on what you do best, serve your customers.”
    Business Greetings is a valuable partner to individuals and businesses who want to take their customer loyalty programs to the next level, but just can’t seem to find the time to do it.
    Business Greetings uses a time-sensitive database that alerts clients to special dates that are approaching so they can distribute multiple mailings throughout the year. According to Harrington, “Any attempt to manually handle these types of mailings would be tedious and time-consuming.”
    Harrington’s idea has caught on so well that her company has now expanded into retail wedding invitations and accessories, and can offer bulk mailing services.
