Plantable Seed Cards

The art of sending notes and cards to people is something that is rarely seen any more. Hand written notes are always well receieved. But what if you want to kick it up a knotch? Try out these plantable seed cards next time you get in the mood to write.  7 out of 10 times, your client will call you back and thank you specifically for the card. In fact, they will also want to know where you got them.

I thing I learned many years ago was that if you want to be successful in building relationships, you need to encourage and lift up people. All people really want is to know that you care anbout them. Send a 2 hand written note cards out each day and watch your sphere of influence grow. All it takes is a few minutes a day and they will remember your kind gesture for months. These cards are also available with paper ornament shapes as well. They are also made using a wide assortment of seeds that might fit your business of theme. My favorite is the Forget-Me-N-not seeds. If your company is at all concerned with the environment, this is another way to show your support.
And yes, you guessed right. Seed cards can be purchased by emailing sales@caseandtote.com. Price is approximately $3 each, depending on style. Minimum order is 25 cards. Drop them a note and they will mail out a free sample.

When it comes to ladies bags, this is one of the finest for the money. Canyon Outback (CO) product has some of the softest leather available.  The skin is a full grain, buffed cowhide. The beauty of Canyon’s Classic line is that it is manufactured naturally, leaving all scars and blemished untouched. This natural state is not a defect, but rather part of the character and beauty of the leather. These fine skins start out with a hand buffing process that gives the leather products that wonderful feel that we have become famous for.
CO also offers creative packaging that most bag companies dont offer. I particularly like the rusted metal boxes with the logo’d patches. For a full offering of products go to www.caseandtote.com . Click here to purchase this item direct.
