Give Eco Friendly Greeting Cards To Clients And Associates

By Donald Sullivan


Greeting cards can say a lot to those who are important, or care about in terms of delivering a positive message. Outside of close loved ones, it can be hard to determine when exactly to trash a greeting card. Some people tend to keep everything forever but eco friendly greeting cards can reduce the likelihood of hoarding.

The great thing about these types of cards is that content is more diverse. Some formats are similar to hard copy versions but other cards are compact in terms of the images and text used. Because they are designed to reflect modern society, the message that is simple or short may be the best communicator. In some cases, less is more.

Cards in general also reflect a change in communication and relationships. Often they can change how people feel about events in their lives. A long time ago, a get well card usually had a picture of flowers with a message that was positive but sometimes generic. There are some recipients that may appreciate light humor or even a funny image to boost their spirit while healing.

Freelancers may find electronic greeting cards the perfect thing to give clients once a project has finished. In many cases, it is impractical to send a gift basket or something that will cost a lot to ship. This way, the recipient can get their card and digital gift, like a gift card to a popular online merchant, off to the recipient quickly with little worry about the damage that may incur while transporting.

When it comes to relationships, there are many growing genres such as same sex relations and partners of a mature age. This is not a trend because, in many cultures, different lifestyles are becoming more the norm. This is why artwork, prose, and even the color are details that matter when conveying a positive message.

More companies are choosing cards that tell real stories that deal with illness, money problems, and even sexual matters. Some use a play on words or metaphoric speech but some cards state the matter outright without a sugar coating. This is a refreshing way to deal with the matter at hand or the card may define a final closure to a challenge faced in a particular relationship.

If a person does not know where to get an electronic greeting, their email provider may offer this feature. While many basic cards are free, other hosting services may offer a premium option that offers a lot of cards from which to choose. A lot of the features may include a variety or colors, images, and fonts. A few even have animated cards, which may feature an animal, GIF image, or other objects.

More people are finding that cards made with recyclable paper are becoming just as stylish as their hard copy counterparts. At one time, these were greyish or light brown in color with minimal artwork. Some people preferred the blank version so they can add a special message but card companies are finding ways to mesh the best of both worlds.
