Re: Re: Christmas Cards for Clients

[Guest guest]

Yes I think its good - no matter what comes out of it - I have done two mothers days and now this will be my second Christmas. I have gotten much much more busier, not sure if is at all from the cards, but it could have helped. I also send to doctors both ob's and peds. I think the more they see your name - whether it is the actual doctor or the office staff the better. I am even thinking about doing a cookie tray for a few of the doctors I have worked with often as a thank you.

I have found that the more I put my name out there the better. I have a great relationship with a wonderful childbirth educator also, she puts all my cards and brochures in her parents packages.

I truly think that anything you do to advertise your business helps - I do free seminars at the baby stores here as well as for midwives in the area.

If it feels like a good idea - go with it !!!

In case anyone has not seen the notecards of Bfing moms and babies offered for sale by the San Diego Breastfeeding Coalition, I thought I would send you to their website:

http://www.breastfeeding.org/info/notecards.html

Here are pictures of the notecards that sell for $11.00 and contain 12 notecards and envelopes. This benefits the work of the SDCBC and is greatly appreciated.

I too got a few cards from moms and a few phone calls - I also received a few consult referrals from doctors offices that I sent my business card along with the holdiay card. I paid someone $40 to do the list and she did everything but the stamps ( My 6 yr old did that) - I just was not happy with the turn around - I would have liked them back sooner. Otherwise I will do it every year along with my "Mothers Day" postcards. Those I get from Vistaprint as well.
