Hi Nick, happy to chime in here. Every good business should always be mailing thank you cards to existing customers & partners. Businesses that do it using ForeverCard are able to mail a card with a "video" message. This achieves far greater referrals and also helps with reviews.  These videos can be shared on social media and when a happy client shares a video of the business saying thank you they then become an influencer for your brand using their social network. Â
Another approach to build your network is to use this same concept of greeting cards with video as a way to introduce yourself and your services to your ideal prospects.Â
Using greeting cards with video is 10-100x more effective than other methods like email. One reason is that digital channels are experiencing declining effectiveness due to "Peak Human Distractedness" (people on more devices/streaming services, etc) and engagement on these is between 2-10 seconds. However, greeting cards last 17 days on average which is incredible! Plus videos increase click through by as much as 16x. Â
You can also add a gift card making it even more effective for booking meetings. Â
If this sounds interesting let's talk one day. Â
