Christmas Card Mail-Outs: Frequently Asked Questions
Does Christmas card marketing actually work?
Yes. One client’s 12-day promotion inside our Christmas card mail-out sold 49 contracts worth £594,398 + VAT – sales they otherwise only matched across a full month, and only in their three best months of the year.
Can I include a promotion in my Christmas cards?
Yes – that’s exactly what this client did. A festive card carrying a seasonal offer combines goodwill with a reason to buy, and it lands at a time of year when inboxes are ignored but doormats aren’t.
What do I need to supply for a Christmas card mail-out?
Just your artwork as a PDF and your data as an Excel file. You approve a digital proof before printing, and we handle everything else.
When should I book my Christmas card mailing?
As early as possible. Pre-booking secures your production slot before the festive rush and guarantees your cards arrive on time.
