Use AI<\/p>\n<p>Suggest to clients that AI tools like ChatGPT or Copy.ai can help write thank you messages from scratch or it can polish wording that&#8217;s already been written. Play with writing the prompt. Be sure to include formality, purpose, length and specific details required.<\/p>\n<p>2. Print + Write<\/p>\n<p>This means that for any occasion where guests are being thanked for attending (and there are no gifts involved), one custom message printed on all cards + a handwritten signature is a great route to go.<\/p>\n<p>3. Make them Laugh<\/p>\n<p>Personalization isn&#8217;t always necessary to create connection. Humor is always appreciated! Here&#8217;s where creating a boutique line of greeting cards can come into play, and always have them on hand for clients to buy for any occasion.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Custom thank you cards are an easy upsell.
