There are many benefits to sending e-cards over traditional print cards. Engaging your Client or Customer and creating an experience works to establish value in many ways for both the sender and the recipient. Some of the associated values and benefits encompassed by e-cards are below.
Since e-cards are delivered electronically using the web, the realm of useful web technologies available to design and develop e-cards allow for the creation of experiences that are far richer than traditional print cards.
The usage of animations, photography, audio and other web technologies, combine to create rich end-user experiences that are engaging and entertaining. When people are entertained by something, they are more likely to remember it, thus increasing the chances to establish a memorable experience.
Combining this memorable experience, with the previously established notion of trust, Client’s benefit by a recipient associating that great experience they had with the sender – your brand.
More than just sending your warm wishes, the unique and trusting channel that e-cards create, provide an exceptional marketing opportunity for your business or organization. Leveraging this channel, you can then carry out a wide variety of marketing initiatives. For example:
Today, with the large environmental movement occurring in our world, more and more businesses and organizations are stepping up to take measures to reduce waste by implementing recycling and other waste reduction methods in their everyday activities.
When it comes to print cards, it is estimated that the 2.65 billion cards sold each year in the United States could fill a football field 10 stories high. If everyone sent one card less, we’d save 50,000 cubic yards of paper.
Now imagine you’re company is sending out a card to each of your Clients for the Holidays, and further imagine, each one of your Clients is doing the same with their own Clients. It’s easy to see how much paper is being used for this. Sure, we can select cards printed on recycled paper which is great, but sending a corporate Holiday e-card essentially eliminates the need for paper usage and the potential for paper waste.
Sending e-cards can save on costs and be more efficient than sending traditional print cards. For many business and organizations, sending a traditional print card to Clients, Buyers, Donors, Subscribers, etc is quite the process.
The monetary costs associated with designing a card; getting it printed; signing and/or adding a personal message to each; addressing envelopes and inserting cards; purchasing stamps; and finally sending them out can turn out to be quite the process. Not to mention the labor involved. Having to ensure you have all the addresses, obtain ones you don’t, and then having to track 1000’s of names and addresses, and then developing a process to make sure no one slips through the cracks can be quite difficult in itself.
Often, the money and time Clients will spend preparing and sending print cards speaks inefficiency. Especially if the card isn’t compelling, engaging or is just a ‘bad’ card in the first place. In most cases, Clients like this can save money and a lot of time by opting to send a Holiday e-card. Plus, the recipient is provided with a richer experience and Client’s can use web technologies with e-cards to satisfy a number of marketing initiatives they may have.
Since our seasonal and corporate Holiday e-cards are developed using Flash, they are web-based. This means that Clients can track statistics associated with their e-cards using the same web analytics technologies used for websites. Monitoring these statistics, the Client can see the effectiveness of their campaign – especially if they are using the e-card for more than just sending warm seasonal wishes to their Clients.
Additionally, when Client’s use email marketing software to send their e-mails with a link to their e-card (and possibly other links to products, services, etc) further statistical information becomes available to determine how many people read the e-mail, who viewed the e-card and how many they did.
The statistics and metrics available with e-cards provide Clients with invaluable feedback regarding the effectiveness of their message and e-card. Obtaining these measurable metrics is something not easy with traditional print Holiday cards.
Sending B2B holiday and seasonal greeting e-cards is great for Client and Customer relationship building. In fact, more than just for sending warm wishes, you can use e-cards to drive many other business-to-business related marketing initiatives.
For example, B2B ecards are a great way to re-establish contact with Clients or Customers who you may have been out of contact with for a while. Putting your name in front of them once again can work wonders to awaken a dormant relationship. You can also use the opportunity to insert a link to your portfolio, or your company’s new products. As a side benefit, this gives you an opportunity to also update your e-mail marketing list.
There are many who would love to do nothing more than to send a Holiday or seasonal greeting to their Clients and Customers, but, unfortunately, just never find the time. When your Clients receive your e-card, it looks to them like you are organized and ‘on-the-ball’. Another reason they should be doing business with you.
The digital nature of B2B E-cards also makes them an asset for business relationship building. With e-cards, you can also measure statistics about your Clients related to their interaction with your e-card. Integrating web analytics software is easy and provides you a way to further dig into what drives your business relationships. For example, imagine you provided an e-card insert to feature some specific information, product, service, etc, you can use the analytics to see who showed interest. Using these results you can start segmenting your list to further narrow them down into smaller pieces - niches.
When someone receives a traditional print card from someone they know, it can be assumed that the recipient trusts the sender. Whether it’s from their account manager, sales rep, manager, favorite website, family member or friend, for the majority of instances where one person sends an e-card to another person, this ‘trusting’ relationship is present.
With the common notion across the web, and by definition, an e-card is generally a digital version of a print card. They both have a personalized message, are sent to a recipient from a sender they know, and they mark an occasion of importance to the recipient or both the recipient and the sender. The only major difference is one is generally delivered by standard postal mail and the other electronically, via the web.
With these distinct similarities, it’s easy to assume that the trust a recipient has for a print card, would be similar to the trust the same recipient has for an e-card.
