Members SixMile Posted March 3, 2023 Members Report Posted March 3, 2023 I have heard of people including a postcard type item in the packaging when mailing items. I only include a business card but want to up my game to be more professional. I would like to know if any of you put in extra stuff like that when mailing items and if so what kind of stuff? I don't even know what to put on a postcard type item. Thanks, Quote

Thanks, When i do a tooling pattern, i usually do some practice on scrap first then if it looks good I'll make it into a key fob and send it along too. i guess a guy could do the same with their logo.

I have kind of adopted it and include this in mine. Quote In God's Grace, Pastor Bob "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." - Romans 5:8 www.PastorBobLeather.com YouTube Channel

Members GrampaJoel Posted March 3, 2023 Members Report Posted March 3, 2023 I include a business card and a thank you card. Often I’ll include an extra piece of leatherwork. A small wallet in a purse. I have even sent high quality wallets inclosed in a purse. The wallet being the purchased item. I like pleasingly surprising people. I ordered a tool a few months back. The tool came in a red gold padded foil envelope package. Just the ‘unusual sight’ of the red gold foiled padded envelope package brightened my day . so I have since purchased gold foiled bubble packing envelops to ship my items in. Wallets in boxes. And the boxes in the padded foil envelopes. I like shipping them too. It makes the item look special in my mind. Joel Quote
Members mike02130 Posted March 4, 2023 Members Report Posted March 4, 2023 In my wallets I add a card that says; "Thank you for your purchase. My mother always told that it's bad luck to give someone an empty wallet. May this lucky dollar bill bring you good fortune." I add a dollar bill and write Lucky Dollar on the back.

CFM tsunkasapa Posted March 4, 2023 CFM Report Posted March 4, 2023 My wife sews harnesses for sled dogs, and each order that goes out has a 'thank you' card in it. Quote Hoka Hey! Today, tomorrow, next week, what does it matter?
Members Charley1 Posted March 4, 2023 Members Report Posted March 4, 2023 I used to add a business card, but response was a very low percentage. Now it is simply a packing slip with order information, contact information, and a thank you message. Quote

Moderator bruce johnson Posted March 4, 2023 Moderator Report Posted March 4, 2023 I send out 6 inch rulers with my logo and contact info with my new customer orders and every so often with repeat buyers. I also give them away at shows. There are now over 9000 rulers out there. Several years ago someone asked me why I don’t have stickers. I didn’t know and at that time didn’t realize the extent of “sticker culture”. I ordered them in small for cups and large for toolboxes and shop refrigerators. 5000 of each in circulation now. My suppliers and other leather friends send me stickers with orders and the refrigerator and shop door are pretty well adorned, as are my two Yeti cups.
