Even though everyone loves receiving cards and letters in their real live mail boxes, since everyone uses the internet and e-mail, fewer people are actually sending cards for the holidays. The winter holiday season usually brings a handful of cards, whereas other holidays don't see much of a jump in postal mail volume. If you want to bring a smile to the faces of those you love, a real card sent through the mail is one of the best ways to let them know you are thinking of them. Follow several steps to make a plan for how many holiday greeting cards you need this year.
The best way to start is to sit down and make a list of everyone you want to send cards to. If you have an address book handy, this is a great place to start, but you often have new friends and acquaintances who have not made it into the book yet. You'll want to sort your list and using the circle method is very effective as it helps you think of everyone in that particular circle. Some categories to consider adding to your list include:
• Family members both those nearby and those who live far away • Family friends • Friends you went to school with • Neighbors • People you work with • Friends from places where you have lived in the past • Acquaintances and friends in groups and organizations where you belong
After listing your recipients, you need to figure out what you are sending them. While you're out shopping, take a look at all the great holiday greeting card choices available and you'll see there are perfect cards for everyone on your list. These are a few types of cards to consider to get you started:
• There are humorous cards for people with any type sense of humor • Cute cards for families with young kids • Classic cards for elderly people • Religious cards for those who find deeper meaning in the holiday
As you put together your Christmas card list, put the type of card you want to send to each person. If you are in doubt about which card a person would like, a classic card is always a safe choice. Total the number of each type of card you need and add one or two to each category to ensure you have enough if you change your mind about your allocations later or think of more people to send to. One of the best parts about sending cards for holidays is that it gives you a chance to write a quick personal note on each one. This lets the recipients know you really care about them and genuinely want them to have a great holiday.
