Why Should People Send "We've Moved" Cards?
04th October 2006
When you change email addresses, you typically send out a bulk notice informing friends, family and co-workers of your new means of communicating via the World Wide Web. If you get a new cell phone and number, you'll certainly be sure to notify everyone and their grandmother of the new number at which you can be reached. When you move to a new home, it shouldn't even be a question as to whether or not you let everyone know about your new residence, and the best/easiest way to do this is by sending out "We've Moved!" cards.
"Snail Mail" is still alive and well, especially as a means of communication for the not-so-internet savvy generations as well as those who simply don't have a computer or Internet access. How do you expect to receive birthday cards in the mail if you don't let everyone know where you are living?
Custom printed, "We've moved!" cards from a quality printing company can make settling into your new home that much easier! While you're busy unpacking rooms and painting walls, a professional company (preferably one that specializes in such events) is taking your text choice and making it look absolutely perfect on your announcement selection. While you're at it, you might want to find out if they have another available option to save you some time and energy- ask them if they can print your return address on the envelope for you.
As for the information that you should be putting on your "We've Moved!" announcement, be sure to include the names of all members of your family, your new address and phone number. The best printing companies will have some catchy phrases and clever puns to add your own unique touch to the announcement.
And while we're on the topic of unique touches, you might want to think about adding a picture of your new home to the front of your card. Imagine the excitement of those closest to you when they open the envelope and see a picture of your new home right on the announcement- it will bring a smile to the many faces of those closest to you.
If you're planning to have a festive house-warming party after you've moved in, why not kill two proverbial birds with one stone by combining your house warming invitation with your "We've Moved!" card? Besides saving precious cash, this option will save you the time of sending out two separate mailings. The money that you'll save will be plenty of cash to buy a gallon or two of paint, and you can use the saved time for kicking back and relaxing- in your new home.
