I think we all know those people who, whenever their birthday comes around, insist they don\u2019t care if anyone remembers or not. They always say they\u2019d rather forget their birthday when they hit a certain age. Well, I\u2019m not one of them. I love getting birthday cards \u2013 and business birthday cards<\/strong><\/a> are some of the best.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t have a lot of credit cards, but I am a sucker for opening a new one every time my daughter and I are shopping. Some of the new stores offer a nice premium for opening the card and then, of course, you get on their mailing list. Lots of coupons and junk mail come my way, but then so does a birthday card and guess what\u2019s inside it \u2013 a coupon, just for me, just because it\u2019s my birthday. These personalized birthday cards, complete with the company name, logo, address, online ordering option \u2013 everything to make shopping easy \u2013 are always welcome in my house.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s amazing how many companies are on the band wagon for sending personalized birthday cards. My mom, a big fan of our local casinos, gets birthday cards from each one of the many places where she has left a deposit over the years. They each include a little \u201cfreebie\u201d and by taking advantage of each one of them, an elderly woman is having a great time, and each of the casinos benefits from her visits.<\/p>\n

One of our local restaurants even has a birthday club. So on your birthday, you get a personalized birthday card and a coupon for your birthday meal on the house. Of course, people don\u2019t usually dine alone for their birthday, so the restaurant benefits by giving away one free meal, but getting several paid meals as a result of the birthday celebration.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure from the sender\u2019s point of view, it\u2019s a smart business decision to make sure your company\u2019s name pops up in the customer or client\u2019s mind, but it\u2019s also a nice surprise from the receiver\u2019s point of view for them to know someone remembered their special day. If you ask me, that makes sending personalized birthday cards a \u201cwin \u2013 win\u201d situation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I think we all know those people who, whenever their birthday comes around, insist they don\u2019t care if…","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"csco_singular_sidebar":"","csco_page_header_type":"","csco_page_load_nextpost":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1292,1297,1302,31],"tags":[912,121],"class_list":{"0":"post-2789","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-occasions-and-celebrations","7":"category-birthday-inspiration","8":"category-welcoming-messages","9":"category-business-birthday-cards","10":"tag-business-birthday-cards","11":"tag-personalized-birthday-cards","12":"cs-entry"},"yoast_head":"\nBusiness Birthday Cards \u2013 Sometimes They Come with a Surprise Inside!
