Why Easter matters for greeting cards sellers
Easter cards are a smaller card season than Christmas, but a loyal one. Grandparents, godparents and family members send cards to children, often with a little money inside, and many buyers want a card that feels handmade and personal. Religious and secular designs both sell, so offering both helps. Because the card still has to be mailed after it arrives, the buyer needs it well before Easter Sunday on 28 March, which pushes your cutoff earlier than the holiday suggests. Money-holder cards and cards with a space for a child's name are strong angles, as are small card sets for families sending to several children. Postage is worth mentioning, because square cards and cards with inserts often cost more to mail. Adding the envelope size and a short note about postage helps buyers avoid returned cards, and it makes your shop look careful and reliable, which matters to older buyers sending cards to grandchildren every spring. A pre-addressed option for families living abroad can also be popular.
