Personalized note cards in a clear gift box

Personalized note cards are an excellent gift idea.

As a teacher gift, as a unique thank you, or for a friend’s birthday or celebration.

Ask Poly Graphics to put them in a clear gift box for an even bigger impact.

If you’d like us to ship your gift directly to your recipient, we’ll take a photo of your gift before we send it out – and email it to you – so that you can see the gift that you’ve sent.

Bob

P.S. Enjoy your search for note cards and remember that at PolyGraphics.com we can make almost unlimited changes to your order – to graphics, fonts, and colors of both. Let us know what changes you’d like us to make in the special instructions part of the order form.

P.P.S. If you don’t see a design that you like at Poly Graphics, we’ll be happy to create something for you. Just Ask.

Give the Joy of a Handwritten Thank You Note

May 25

It’s graduation season. Time for commencement speeches. Time to give out advice about how to use your degree to land the job you are seeking.

At a recent graduation speech, a Vice President of a large pharmaceutical company told the graduates this:

“I have never hired someone that did not write a hand-written thank you note”

Advantage: you – if you handwrite a thank you note.

Make sure your thank you note includes details about your prospective job that you learned at your interview.

Thank your interviewer(s).

And (most importantly) ask for the job.

Good Luck in your job search,

Bob

P.S. If you don’t have thank you notes on hand, and want something special, personalized, check out the wide variety of custom designed thank you notes available at PolyGraphics.com

Poly Graphics believes in giving to local and worldwide charities – donations are given to these charities from your invitation orders.

The month of May we happily donate to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure organization, whose goal is to end breast cancer forever.

Next month we’ll donate to a local charity, the Western Wake Crisis Ministry, whose mission is to provide a helping hand to the Apex & Holly Springs (NC) community – in the form of food or crisis financial aid.

Offering great invitations, providing awesome service with a quality product and making you happy are what we aim for everyday.

Giving back to our community and country a portion of what we’ve earned gives us extra joy.

Thanks for giving us the opportunity to create your invitations – and to give away some of what we’ve earned.

Bob

P.S. If you purchase some breast cancer awareness note cards from Poly Graphics, we’ll give a full 10% of your order  to Susan G Komen for the Cure

Celebrate with balloons, streamer, and party hat

Evelyn called last week and made my day.

She said “My goal is to plan a party that you don’t have an invitation for

Wow!

I know that PolyGraphics.com has a wide variety of party invitations. And we add more all the time.  Many of our invitations came about because of customer request – because we create new designs when you request them, then we make them available on our website so that others may order what you requested.

We’ll even design a matching thank you note card.

But I don’t think we’ve got every possible party covered.

Can you think of an invitation that Poly Graphics doesn’t have?

Bob

P.S. I don’t think that we have a National Cheese Day invitation (yet). National Cheese Day is June 4th, 2010.

P.P.S. Thanks for the call Evelyn!

Poly Graphics had our first sale 15 years ago today – on April 26th, 1995.

15 years ago the internet was just a blip.

We had no website then. We worked at local craft shows and fairs. Hours in the booth were tedious. And a burst of wind or rain could ruin our entire day.

Since nearly everything Poly Graphics sells is custom printed for you – with your choice of design, wording, and colors, we didn’t have much to sell at a craft show at first. We pre-printed a few things, but mostly we passed out catalogs and hoped for orders to come in later.

A couple of years later we purchased the domain PolyGraphics.com and put our ever-changing catalog of designs on the internet – things began to really pick up.

What started as a dream has now become our way of making a living.

We appreciate you and all our customers for allowing us to have a small part of your celebrations, for keeping us busy designing new invitations, and for helping us keep our service and selection unique and pleasing.

Thank You for your orders and allowing us to keep our dream alive,

Bob

P.S. Woooo Hoo!

I rushed out of work on Friday to get to my daughter’s softball game, totally forgetting that a customer was coming by later to pick up her invitations. She came by and the door was locked.

Although Sherry, our customer, was nice about not being able to pick up her invitations, we felt bad. When Janet, our designer, looked up Sherry’s information, she noticed that Sherry lived at a nearby town that Janet was planning to visit on Saturday.

Janet called Sherry and arranged a pickup location near Sherry’s home – over the weekend!

Sherry was happy, Janet was happy, I was happy.

Thank You Janet for doing this!

Bob

P.S. We don’t usually deliver orders, but in this case (since I messed up), it was the right thing to do.

P.P.S. Can you tell we like to take care of our customers?

Are handwritten thank you notes a thing of the past?

I don’t think email or a phone call has replaced a handwritten note.

Do you need to thank someone for helping you?

You can make a great impression by writing a thank you note by hand – to thank your family for a gift, or thank someone for their business.

Seth Godin, a fantastic marketing mind, says that writing thank you notes is a great way to spend time instead of watching television (see the 8th bullet).

Do you have thank you notes on hand?

Would you like some personalized thank you cards at a great price?

Thank you note cards personalized for you at PolyGraphics.com

Try PolyGraphics.com.

Even though we proofread every order, check for grammar errors, check for print quality, and double count envelopes, we still make mistakes sometimes.

Invitation for a shopping party - Mall Party Invitation

The party invitation should have said “Beth” not “Bet”.

And we shipped the invitations to the customer. Yikes!

As Poly Graphics always does, we admit our mistake and fix it as quickly as possible. Luckily there was enough time for the corrected invitations to arrive and be delivered to guests before the RSVP date got too close.

We’re human, we make mistakes, but we admit them, fix them, and move on.

Try us, we’ll do our best to get your right the first time!
