GCU Forum - Compliments to GCU

Catherine_131549 Full Member artist Posts: 141	Compliments to GCU Dec 17^th, 2007, 1:02am Hi, Just wanted to let you know my husband complimented CGU on the quality of his 40th Birthday card - he was really impressed (which, I can sure you is a great feat!) AND my mother just got her Xmas card and she loved the card too, so well done CGU!!

Ditto on compliments to GCU. I only just purchased and sent customized cards for the first time and I could not believe how easy and CONVENIENT the process was - not to mention the savings with artist discount and the free ship promo. I actually felt a little guilty taking advantage of the latter but then it occurred to me that for every card we send, (appreciating too that GCU is not making profits when postage is included in price) we are advertising GCU and we all know how word of mouth can benefit a young company. I have no doubt the quality of the cards is good (my customers have told me they are) and I can't wait to see one for myself. Although I haven't got many cards listed yet, (and the best is yet to come) GCU has my enthused support, both as an artist and a customer now. Cheers, Lisa Charlton (I'm off to purchase and send another card!)

Just to add my 2¢, I recently joined a choral group...and brought several samples of my cards to show off (given the opportunity). Several members were very impressed, and inquired about the GCU site and how they might participate. So, there may be a few more stores popping up soon from the Long Island, NY area.

Here's to a very prosperous 2008 to GCU & community!

Excellent idea, Lynne! I think I'll order some cards just to have 'on hand' to share like this.

Hmmm...would that be 'too many notes'---?

--I think that's a great idea---does there informatino get recorded after they purchase from us? then again, If we contacted them--would they think they were now being 'stalked'?

I would much rather have the possibility to add the url of my shop to the back of the card, it would let the customer know who made the card, and be a reference for further sales if they wanted to come back!

They've been working with their printing partner and Minday has said this feature will become available in 2008. She'll make an announcement when it's ready to go. Corrie http://www.corrieweb.nl

Maximum search results allowed=15." Ergo I was not able to read the info.
