Marketing Myth: “You Need to Send a Holiday Card to Stay Top-of-Mind

Holiday cards. Everyone sends them. And that’s the problem.

By the time your glossy “Happy Holidays” hits the mailbox, it’s swimming in a sea of red envelopes and scripted greetings that all look and sound… the same.

Do you want to know a little secret? You don’t need to blend in during December to stay top-of-mind, you need to stand out before or after the crowd shows up.

This year, some of my clients are skipping the cliché and leaning into bold, unexpected touchpoints like a “New Year, Fresh Start” campaign or a January postcard that celebrates your client, not just the season.

Because memorable marketing doesn’t whisper “Happy Holidays.” It delivers a message that sticks after the tree comes down.

Sandy at Bild a Better Business continues to amaze me with her expertise and generousity!

“Sandy Bild is the most efficient and effective assistant I have had the pleasure to work with. She is ALWAYS on time with assignments and is very proficient with her work. She is able to mutli-task and keep work-load running smoothly. One of the things I found most helpful with Sandy is that she keeps on top of my busy schedule and keeps me organized. She is self-sufficient and a self-starter. The experience she brings to the field is invaluable.”

“In the past 3 ½ years Sandy has worked with me, it feels no longer like it’s my business but it’s ours. Together we work perfectly as a team. I know my strengths and I certainly appreciate hers. Sandy has been able to take down my creative ideas and put them on paper to create what I believe to be an outstanding reflection of my business. She has given me the ability to focus on what I do best, sell real estate! Instead of me using my precious time working on the details of advertising, blog posts, researching the proper materials for keeping my clients informed, I count on Sandy for that task! Having someone who “gets it” and then put it into text and production is essential and she does that!”
