“The Gallery Collection never disappoints us. This is the fifth year we’ve ordered our Company holiday cards from Gallery, and we find the artistry to be inspired and the production quality flawless. We also appreciate the significant discount offered us every year for ordering early. Every business in America should be this well managed and operated. Thanks for a very valued service. “

Gallery Collection: @chilmarkcharle we were blown away by your review. We couldn’t ask for anything better. Many thanks for your kind words.

“We had not ordered in 5 years and none of the previous order information was on file in our offices. I went on line and found the cards that we needed being featured in a 50% discount + $75 off sale. I entered the order information online and submitted it. I received a confirmation email regarding the order. I was unsure about the artwork due to the time between orders. Phyllis called me within a day or two of the order to inform me that the logo was not on file and that I would have to re-submit it. She was very professional. She left exact instructions for what I needed to do. We kept missing each other on the phone, but we communicated by messages. I told her that I had a $200 budget and would need to switch the shipping rate to compensate for the cost for the logo. She found the best rate for me and kept my bill under budget. This was a very pleasant shopping experience. I will choose to continue doing business with this company. “

Gallery Collection: That is terrific to hear. We are glad that our customer service representative, Phyllis, was able to help you with your budget considerations. We are here to serve and keep our customers happy and provide that “very pleasant shopping experience” each and every time!

Business Christmas Cards a.k.a. Good Will Ambassadors

Business Christmas cards will never be passé, and I’ll tell you why. Last year I almost cut sending corporate holiday cards from the budget. When I discussed this idea with my office manager, she was appalled. She reminded me of how the look and tone of our office changed last year when we started receiving our holiday cards from customers, vendors, and business associates. Her question was, “If we enjoyed receiving holiday cards from other businesses, why would we not expect the recipients of our cards not feel the same way?”

Instead of thinking of how much they would cost, I started to think of the positive effect these business Christmas cards created. The Gallery Collection’s cards are among the finest I have seen. The selection is varied so that I can always find a card that reflects my company’s image and that I know will not offend anyone. They are truly more than cards; they are good will ambassadors.

When you peruse the selections, you will notice the magnificent quality of these cards. Embossed, colorful, high quality paper, and an envelope designed to let people know that something special is inside. The highly competitive pricing is another reason I chose my corporate holiday cards from Gallery Collection. Of course, Martha, my office manager, was quick to remind me that shopping early and getting us an especially good discount was her idea.

As her reward, I will make sure we get the seal fast envelopes again!

25 Years of Company Christmas Cards – Living it and Loving it

Yes, 25 years of working for The Gallery Collection, the industry leader for high quality company Christmas cards! Starting back in 1986, as a temporary customer service representative, I quickly learned what the words quality and customer service meant at their very best. Here was a company who placed customers and employees on their priority list. Treat everyone well and show appreciation for everyone seemed to be the basis for our company culture. Our exquisite line of business Christmas cards has always been a display of pride for those who make, sell and personalize them as well as for those who buy them.

How exciting each year to see the new designs that are being added to the line! I’m sure our customers feel the same way when they receive the first catalog mailing of the year or check out the website that exhibits all of our cards. Company Christmas cards provide an inexpensive yet thoughtful way of showing employees and clients your appreciation. I know my whole family is delighted each year when we open up our very own personal card signed by our entire executive team. Sometimes it’s a tranquil wooded snow scene like “Winter Sparkle Holiday card” or perhaps a more traditional design such as our “Home for the Holidays Card”.

I think that 25 years at the same company says a lot in itself. Quality of product, superb customer service, a unique, diversified, exceptional line of  holiday cards as well as constant displays of appreciation to employees have kept me happily captive. Living it and Loving it, I am certain that when you send a Gallery Collection business Christmas card to your employee or client or vendor that they will feel that same appreciation.

Framing Business Christmas Cards to Hang Around the House

Who would’ve thought that framing business Christmas cards could become a tradition in my family during the holiday season? With the aroma of turkey and stuffing cooking throughout my mom’s house we are reminded that Christmas is just around the corner. Along with wrapping gifts and personalizing our Christmas cards, out comes my mom’s collection of framed Christmas cards from years past to be placed around the house.

I’m sure you are asking yourself why would someone want to frame and display business Christmas cards around the house. Most people might think that business Christmas cards from companies like The Gallery Collection would strictly be for corporate use, but think again. As an employee of The Gallery Collection, I’ve come to know their Christmas cards line very well. The line is both elegant and distinctive and there are so many different themes of cards to choose from. There are themes that include beautiful sparkling snow scenes; there are wildlife themes that include cuddly bears, birds perched in trees, and deer grazing by trickling streams. There are also the more traditional designs that include decorated Christmas trees, beautiful gift wrapped boxes, and iridescent ornaments. The Gallery Collection also has cards for the young at heart with several fun-filled designs featuring dancing penguins and snowmen.

As you can see The Gallery Collection’s line of Christmas cards are perfect for both business and personal use. Each design is so warm and inviting to look at that I’m sure most would agree they are deserving of a frame and to be placed around the house for all to see year after year. My mom tastefully displays her framed business Christmas cards, whether it be an iridescent ornament sparkling in the foyer or a warm inviting winter scene placed over the mantle of the fireplace to add warmth to the room.

As strange as it sounds, this tradition of framing Christmas cards has been passed on to my sister, and as much as I hate to admit it, I’ve also have been known to frame a few designs myself. Who knows, after reading my story, this just might become your family’s next great holiday tradition.

Company Christmas Cards and Tornados

Having worked here at The Gallery Collection for over ten years as a customer service rep, I along with all my fellow employees have come across some strange orders. We’ve all had some really strange imprints requested for company Christmas cards, or sometimes a name will give us a chuckle when we see their occupation. Point in fact, Dr. Pain, who is a dentist.

At our annual Christmas party our President will give the customary speech about the year that has just ended and will invariably include a few anecdotes from the year. I personally have had a few memorable orders from customers, but the one that will always stand out is an order that was placed on the last day of the 50% holiday cards discount.

My phone rang and I answered thanking my customer for calling and asking how I might help. She started to give me her information and wanted to order some company Christmas cards. During our conversation, the connection kept cutting in and out and it made it very difficult to catch everything being said. I apologized to the customer thinking it might be on my end, but she said, “Oh, that’s because we’re in the midst of a tornado.” It took me a second or two to absorb this fact and then I told her that maybe she should hang up and seek shelter. To my dying day, I will never forget her response: “That’s Ok. I’m on my cell phone under my desk.”

Our customers…you gotta love them!

Stunning Business Christmas Cards Make Everyone Smile

When I think of Christmas cards, or more specifically, business Christmas cards, I usually think of brightly colored designs with reds and greens…you know, something cheery and uplifting. What I don’t think of is black, as in a black stock card. I always thought of these cards as kind of dull and depressing. I’ve never ordered one before and thought I never would, but then I saw The Gallery Collection’s design #870CX, Golden Greetings Star Christmas Card. It made me re-think my opinion of these dark stock cards. It really is neither dull nor depressing. In fact, it’s a stunning Christmas card! It’s a beautifully rendered design of a magnificent golden star with gorgeous holographic foil and delicate gold filigree trim. “Season’s Greetings” is wished in lovely gold foil script. Take a look at this design. I know you won’t be disappointed! I just may break my own rule and order a box of these Christmas cards myself this year!

A wonderful Christmas card from The Gallery Collection is design #145CX, Hometown Holiday Die-Cut Christmas Card. I absolutely love this card! It’s perfect to send as either a Business Christmas card or as a personal one. If you’re into nostalgia, and who isn’t at Christmas time, you’ll love this card as much as I do! It’s a die-cut card, which means the front has a cut-out through which your two line imprint will appear. It’s a wonderful way to showcase your company or your personal name. This particular design depicts a charming vignette of pretty little homes and apartment buildings complete with a trio of festive Christmas trees. Balsam wreaths and poinsettias festoon the cozy homes. “Greetings of the Season” is spelled out in striking gold foil script. It’s so very warm and inviting…it makes me wish this were my hometown!

Quality and Service Matter when Ordering Corporate Holiday Cards

The Gallery Collection has always taken great pride in the quality and beauty of the holiday cards we offer. Not only do we offer exceptional designs, but we also offer exceptional service. This makes our holiday cards a top choice for your business, but you don’t have to take our word for it.

We received an email from Diana Smith, who wrote:
Your cards are the best. I was stupid enough to try a different company and was very very displeased with their product. Let alone, they cost more for less quality. I will never steer myself in that direction again no matter how good the other cards look in the catalog. Silly me!! I should know better.

Needless to say, we were all very happy to receive such an email. We take great pride in our product and the services we offer. Hearing that a customer is very satisfied makes everyone at the company feel good.

Our Chief Marketing Officer was very pleased to get such positive feedback. He wrote to Diana to ask if we could use her comments as a testimonial. Her response thrilled us just as much as her original email:
Sure, you can print my comment. Why not, your cards are the best. Diana Smith owner of Topiary Gardens, Marcellus, NY

Diana even wrote back one more time to give us a little more information:
Hello again, I also neglected to put the following in my comment. I am a seasonal company and don’t see my customers until late April and they all comment on the beautiful card that I had sent for Christmas. They are very memorable and make a great impression.

Having high quality products and great customer service are trademarks of The Gallery Collection. As you can see from our satisfied customers, we strive to give you the very best corporate Christmas cards and holiday cards available. These cards make a great impression on everyone who receives them, which makes a very positive statement about your company.

Don’t settle for less. When the time comes for your company to send holiday cards, you need to look no further than The Gallery Collection.

A Business Christmas Cards Display that Caught my Eye

Last December while Christmas shopping for my Mom, a business Christmas cards display caught my eye. But first things first. It all started with my usual quandary of what to get my Mom for Christmas. At her age (88) she pretty much has everything she needs. So rather than wrack my little brain for a decent idea, I called her to ask her what she wanted, hoping against hope that she wouldn’t give me her usual reply, “Oh you don’t have to get me anything; as long as we’re together, that’s all I need.” How many times have I heard that?

But wait, right then and there she surprised me with an actual answer! She said she needed a reading lamp for her bedside table. Alright! I am going shopping! So I headed to the lamp megastore which, luckily for me, was practically in my backyard. Living three minutes from Paramus, New Jersey – the mall Mecca of the world – has its perks. I entered the store and was dazzled by the endless variety of lamps. They had floor lamps, table lamps, hanging lamps, huge lamps, tiny lamps, brass lamps, ceramic lamps, stained glass lamps. It was a lamp lover’s heaven and in no time I found the perfect brass bedside lamp for my mom. So I headed for the cashier, lamp in hand.

While waiting on line, I noticed that on the wall behind the cashier was a display of Christmas cards that the store had received from customers, vendors, etc. There must have been about 25 or so cards. The cashier noticed me looking at them. (Since I started working for The Gallery Collection, I seem to pay more attention to greeting cards wherever I may find them!) Anyway, I said to the cashier “Your Christmas cards look really pretty there.” She agreed and proceeded to point out her favorites. There were five that she and her co-workers agreed stood out from all the others. I wasn’t a bit surprised when she pointed to the faves and every one was a Gallery Collection card! Sweet!

I walked out of the lamp store that day with a smile on my face and the feeling of satisfaction that comes with knowing that I work for the best of the best when it comes to business Christmas cards! So what are you waiting for? Go ahead and order your Christmas cards from the Gallery Collection. You’ll be glad you did – I guarantee it!

Design #610CS – Season’s Greetings Peaceful Winter Card

If you’re searching for the perfect business Christmas cards, look no further than design #610CS, Season’s Greetings Peaceful Winter Card. This tasteful card is printed on a rich, white card stock and features a serene painted scene of gray and white. A lone pine stands in the foreground of a snowy meadow while bare branched snow-covered hardwoods occupy the area to the sides of the pine and the background. Tiny iridescent silver foil snowflakes populate all the branches of the trees allowing the card to “shimmer” as you turn it in your hand. The words “Season’s Greetings” appear almost handwritten in the same glistening foil below the landscape. This selection is elegant in an understated manner and would be perfect to send as a corporate holiday card. It is non-religious in nature and can be sent to all clients and customers, regardless of each one’s particular spirituality. The design conveys a feeling of wintertime tranquility.

Design #528CS – Frosted Wreath Season’s Greetings Card

As the owner of a company that deals in public relations, I am always aware of making sure to treat people fairly when I am trying to get my message across. When it comes each year to sending out business Christmas cards, I try to be especially sensitive not to ruffle anyone’s feathers by sending out the wrong type of holiday cards. That is why I was so happy to receive a sample from The Gallery Collection of design #528CS, Frosted Wreath Season’s Greetings Card.

This holiday card design is published on white, thick matte paper with “Season’s Greetings” printed in a clean-looking, cursive font in a bright, classy-looking silver foil. The wreath – which is raised – contains wonderful detail that can be felt by running one’s fingers over the card itself. In addition, the colors used on the wreath’s details (blue, red, green and silver) are spectacular. Selecting which imprint color to use for the inside of this holiday greeting card will be quite a challenge since all the colors featured on the wreath will look good.

Usually when it comes to selecting a holiday card, I wrack my brain each year because I am an indecisive person when it comes to deciding which holiday greeting to send out. This year, I will have no such problem; thanks to The Gallery Collection and design #528CS, my mind is made up!
