Everything you need to know about business greeting cards

Are you a business, retailer, freelancer, or entrepreneur interested in Fizzer’s custom cards? However, you still have some questions: what are the characteristics of a Fizzer card? How can you send a professional card that reflects your brand’s image using our easy-to-use app? Is it possible to create bulk card orders rather than individual sends? Rest assured, for all businesses, you can request a personalised quote directly from our team. In the meantime, here are some detailed explanations to answer all your questions about our end-of-year greeting cards for businesses.

How to create a business greeting card?

A business greeting card is a relative concept. What does it mean to be “professional”? It all depends on the tone and image of your business. The most important thing is that the cards you send should perfectly reflect your values, whatever they may be. From the colours and design to the text and photos, everything about the visual must align with your company’s image and the actions it carries out. With Fizzer, you can create a business greeting card that reflects your brand, or one that conveys the light-heartedness of your end-of-year wishes. In just a few steps, you can send your best wishes:

• Gather all the photos from the past year: team meetings, projects, press conferences, company events, team pictures… Collect them and choose the one that best represents the past year.
• If you want to send a small number of cards, head to the web or mobile app. Choose your favourite New Year’s card format. Browse our dedicated end-of-year greetings section and pick the design you like best. Add up to 6 photos, write your professional greeting text, and select your recipient list. Once you approve your creation, Fizzer will print the number of cards requested, affix postage, and send them worldwide.
• If you want to send a bulk order of more than 500 cards, get in touch with our team for a custom quote.
• Write a message for your greeting card. The simplest option is to write one message and send it to everyone. It’s faster and saves you time. If you’d like to personalise your message for different recipients, you can certainly tailor your texts.

When should you send your business greetings?

It depends on what you want to wish and to whom. At the end of the year, you can wish for two things:

• Happy holidays: this includes Christmas, so you’ll be wishing “season’s greetings” or “happy holidays”. These wishes can be sent before the end of December or even at the beginning of January.
• A happy New Year: in this case, Christmas wishes are excluded, and you focus solely on the New Year. Typically, New Year’s cards are sent after New Year’s Day, either on the day itself (keeping in mind that postal services are closed on January 1st) or up until the end of January. After January, it’s a little late to send New Year’s cards for business purposes.

But here’s the good news: with Fizzer, you can start drafting your professional greeting messages any time, even right now! You can create your cards in advance in our app and schedule your sends for a specific day.

Ideally, create your business greeting card in advance. This way, you’re sure not to be caught up with end-of-year tasks. Choose a send date between late December and the second week of January. Your cards will be delivered in time to wish your clients and partners a Happy New Year 2025.

Who should you send your end-of-year greetings to as a business?

It depends on your organisation and profession, but also on the purpose behind your business greeting card send.

• If you work in sales, send your professional wishes to your clients and prospects. This can help boost your popularity and, most importantly, attract more clients.
• If you’re part of the marketing or PR team, now’s the perfect time to show your presence to journalists and influencers. Sending them a paper greeting card will increase your visibility and credibility. It’s a great way to grab their attention and raise your profile!
• If you’re a business leader, thank your employees, suppliers, and partners for their hard work, loyalty, and successes. This is a great way to retain them for the year ahead.
• If you’re a retailer or an entrepreneur, thank and retain your most loyal clients, with an offer that suits your budget. Either way, a business greeting card will help strengthen your brand image.

Of course, this list isn’t exhaustive, as there are many good reasons to send your greetings to those in your professional network. It’s an appreciated gesture, especially when it’s a paper send, which helps you stand out.
