Here are some tips on choosing the right greeting for any occasion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keep\nyour audience in mind<\/strong>. If your business plans on sending out\nholiday cards, consider choosing a secular card and greeting. Keep in mind that\nnot all of your employees may celebrate Christmas. It is best to take a \u201chappy\nholidays\u201d or \u201cseason\u2019s greetings\u201d approach, so all employees feel represented\nand included. Religious greetings, such as greetings with scriptures or\nreferences to God, should typically be limited to personal use or religious\ngroups, like a church organization.&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Thank\nyour employees<\/strong>. Another popular choice for business greetings\nis to take the time to acknowledge all of the hard work that your employees\nhave done for the company. These greetings can be used for multiple occasions,\nincluding birthday, holiday, and anniversary cards. Of course, thank you cards\nare the perfect opportunity to show your employees that you appreciate their\nefforts! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Be\ninclusive<\/strong>. Greetings that include the phrasing \u201cfrom all of us\u201d\ngive your cards a feeling of inclusion. These types of greetings are good to\nuse if you are planning on sending a card from a group, like the management of\na business, or from an entire family. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Add\na graphic<\/strong>. If you want your card to have a cute, light-hearted\nfeel, you can choose a greeting that also includes a graphic. A happy birthday\ncard with a cartoon cake or a Christmas card with a happy snowman make for fun\ngreetings. Decorative lines underneath a greeting can give your card a chic and\nsophisticated appearance. Along with the graphic, you can also play around with\nthe font styles. Script fonts are typically more formal, while printed fonts\nare generally more informal and playful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although your greeting is important, don\u2019t stress over\nthe abundance of options! If you\u2019re spending time agonizing over whether to\nwish someone \u201cjoy and happiness\u201d vs. \u201cgood health and success\u201d for their\nbirthday, just remember that whoever receives your card will appreciate the\ngesture, no matter what wording you\u2019ve chosen. And if you can\u2019t decide on a\ngreeting that encompasses everything that you\u2019re looking for, you can always\ncreate your own!&nbsp; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Although there are dozens of ways to say the same thing, not all greetings are created equal.
