Strategy
The first and foremost step to do is to create a plan/strategy. Whatever you do for your business, it is important to have a strategy in place. Sending out Holiday Business Cards isn’t any different. Plan your budget, target audience, in-house or outsourced printing, mode of delivery, etc.
Build your Target Audience list – It’d be a better idea to segment your customers based on demography, purchase behavior, and/or geography and send them personalized messages based on the segmentation. Build and segment your target audience.
Personal Message – As discussed above, address your customers and add a personal note on the message/greetings so it doesn’t look like it has been sent as part of a large group.
Be Generic – Make sure not to offend your customers’ religious sentiments. The best way to stay safe is to include a generic ‘Happy Holidays’ message.
Promotion – Include Your Holiday Offers, Discounts or Coupons
In-House or Outsourced Printing – You need to decide whether to go with in-house printing or outsourced. Online Printing Partners like us, Smart Resolution can take care of the printing process while you can plan on the other tasks.
