Are you sending holiday cards this year?

If you are, that's great! If not, why not? Either way, I want to talk to you. This is the time of year to reach out to your loved ones...friends and family, as well as co-workers, neighbors, clients, customers and would be clients and customers.

Many people complain that it's too much trouble and/or too expensive. It can be...if you do it the wrong way. But it's very inexpensive and very easy if you do it the right way. So, what is the right way? Those of you who know me won't be surprised if I say that SendOutCards is the right way.

With SOC you can send cards anytime to anywhere that has an address and from anywhere (or at least anywhere that has an Internet connection) from your computer, tablet or smart phone. All you have to do is pick a card (or cards) that you like...or design one of your own from scratch, add any pictures and text that you like, select the people from the SOC contact manager (you can upload your contacts) and hit send. The company will print your cards, put them in a stamped envelope, address them and take them to the post office for you...all for as little as $1.17 per card plus tax and postage. In Modesto, CA the sales tax is 7.88% so it comes out to $1.75 per card total. And you can also send gifts! Again you can buy the gifts from the comfort of your home and the company will mail them for you. I looked at Hallmark and you can get boxes of 40 cards for about $15 - 20. Plus tax and shipping, if you buy them online. And then you have to fill out each card, stamp and address the envelopes and mail them.

So, whether you're looking at sending Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukah, Kwanzaa, New Years or whatever, SOC makes it easier.

Plus, if you purchase your points in October you'll be helping me get a promotion and to thank you for your help I'll be glad to help you design your holiday cards (no matter which holiday(s) you want to celebrate). We all know how tight money can be at the end of the year...this will give you a chance to do your holiday card shopping before the funds dry up.

Email me or send me a Facebook private message and I'll be glad to tell you more about it.
