Business owners: how are you staying "top of mind" with your customers and clients? You can be that in this economy, your customers will search for the best deal they can get - they do business with people they like and trust, so what are you doing to establish a strong, personal relationship with them? Send them personal postcards thanking them for doing business with you, and let them know you appreciate them.

Send Out Cards makes it very cost-effective and efficient for you to establish and nurture your client relationships.

Mission "To change the world, one card at a time"

Following the unexpected passing of his brother Kris, founder and CEO Kody Bateman became dedicated to finding a simple and inexpensive way to encourage others to share a message of love and kindness.

From that day, it has been SOC's continued mission to allow individuals a way to act on their promptings as quickly and easily as possible.
Products High-quality greeting cards, at a fraction of the price you would find at Target, Wal-Mart, etc. We also offer a huge array of corporate gifts, seasonal gifts, gift baskets, novelty items, and more. Send gift cards (Starbucks, Barnes & Noble, Target, Home Depot, etc) to your top clients or friends/family. Our reminder system reminds you 2 weeks in advance of your important dates - never forget a birthday again and look like a hero! Send Out Cards also includes a contact management system, so as you send cards and gifts to your recipients, you are building your database at the same time. Or you can import your contacts into the SOC database from what you are currently using.

Park Lane Jewelry

I have a friend that has started her own business with Park Lane Jewelry and has been very successful. I have actually held a couple of parties for her that were pretty good. This is unusual for me since I am not a jewelry person. When I went thru chemo my husaband bought me some jewelry from her and everywhere I go I get the most compliments.

Enjoyed 4th of July 2011

This has been a very peaceful and relaxing day. No time schedule, no work, a day to do whatever I want. You don't get to many days like this one. Enjoyed the morning at the lake watching Carter fish and enjoy the coolness of the day. Then decided to make Macaroni Salad and Chicken Salad. I had found a recipe for homemade Ice Cream so Carter and I have attempted to make it and we added fresh Georgia peaches to it. Now we just have to wait for it to freeze.

Spent the afternoon swimming at the lake. So nice and a great way to stay cool.

Will have to let you know how the homemade ice cream turns out.

Going to spend the rest of the evening relaxing and watching reruns of "Murder She Wrote".
