Make a kid’s day – pointers for teachers and parents!

I have a friend, Ethan. He’s a real cool kid. In April he was named Student of the Month for his class.

Student of the Month is a BIG deal. So is getting your award in a school assembly. So I took the award that was posted on his mom’s Face Book page, threw it in my photo editor, saved it at 300 dpi, and uploaded it into the system that I use to send out all my greeting cards.

Now here’s a custom, greeting card, congratulating the special student on his great achievement. What kid doesn’t like to receive a greeting card? Don’t you think he’ll feel extra special?

I know of one teacher that takes her list of students for the new year and sends out a welcome to my class greeting card. Inside the card is a picture of her, so her students will recognize her when they come to school. Do you think that makes a difference in how well her year goes? Even before school starts her students are beginning to build a relationship with her. That’s another neat way to use a custom, photo greeting card. How many ways can you think of to motivate and compliment the children in your life? Custom photo cards cost between $1.47 to $.93, plus a stamp, depending on the type of account you want.

Custom, Photo Card New Year’s Card A Winner

Here’s an example of a business owner who sent out this custom, photo card to his friends, family and the customer’s that he felt had a sense of humor.  I think it is priceless.

The front cover is self-explanatory.  If the inside doesn’t make you laugh, you need to have your sense of humor checked.

 2009 Naked Fireman Calendar

Inside this clever greeting card, the businessman wished every one a laugh for 2009 and announced that his son had finally accomplished his life-long dream of becoming a fireman for the local fire department. He also included a picture of his swearing in on the inside of the card.

See how using a custom, photo greeting card can get you remembered by your friends, family, and even your customers? He could be proud of his son without being a pompus idiot. People will share the card with others. It’s a great referral marketing piece, because people will think of this business owner when someone asks if they know someone who provides his service.

(We have no word how the son took to the card, especially if the firemen in his department got a hold of it. Oh, well, it is small town. Who knows?)
