“Look at me!”—is what your postcard needs to scream. The primary objective of the postcard is to deliver your business-promoting message. But, if you can’t first get your viewer’s attention, they aren’t going to read your postcard and it’s away to the trash without so much as a second glance. Don’t overwhelm your audience with visual noise, though. Catch their eye with a clean, uncluttered layout that is perfectly simple.
Holidays are fantastic for businesses. They give you plenty of opportunities (i.e., excuses) to connect with past and potential customers, which can lead to more sales. With Valentine’s Day coming up, take advantage of the special day and tell your customers that you LOVE and appreciate their business.
Here’s a not-too-mushy business Valentine’s Day card you can use. This art is free for you to download and our gift to you. And here are some ideas for messaging for the other side of the card:
Thank You For Your Business
We want you to know that you are the HEART of our business and we appreciate the opportunity to work with you. Thank you for your continued loyalty and support.
You Are the Heart of Our Business

Let’s just lay it all out there right up front—nothing is free. There is a cost to using all marketing mediums. You will either pay for your marketing with your pocketbook or pay for it with your time. And If you are doing it right, you are paying with both time and money. They all require an investment, but each is a valuable component of an entire marketing strategy. The trick is spending your time wisely and getting the most bang for your buck.
All great superheroes (and some not-so-great… “Matter Eater Lad” anyone?) have an origin story. A few of the better-known examples deal with surviving a great disaster, overcoming catastrophic personal injury, disability or family tragedy, being afflicted/infected/injected/mutated by any number of maladies, experiments gone awry or bizarre substances. As mere mortals, we can’t seem to get enough of these tales wherein a lone individual, a dynamic duo or a rag-tag team, against seemingly impossible odds, finds ultimate success. Over the course of our lives, we’ve all faced challenges and personal battles in varying degrees that have forged us into the men and women we have become. These fictional origin stories resonate with us for one simple reason—there is something in each one we can personally relate to.
