Greeting Cards And Phone Cases

People must be texting more than writing these days.

i haven't counted the amount, i seem to sell quite a few cards - those are hung as well. the phone cases started to increase since the keywords were removed from FAA. i'm getting more than before, but i wouldn't call it high. but yeah, more people are getting phones these days and they want that look on their phone. and people send Ecards, or what-have-yous from a phone. i sold quite a few cards the other day - 3 packs of 25.

i also think that more and more pod's are opening and cards are cheaper there.

Edward is right I think.... People do still send cards but far less. ECards are the way to go and this would be good as a future sales possibility here.... Not sure if he would ever consider it

Hmmm interesting thought about the e-cards. Not sure if people would pay that much for them though. I don't send out that many e-cards yet alone paper cards, but I think you can do that for free nowadays. I always looked at the greeting cards as just a small sized print sale.

i'm pretty sure that's all they do with them. frame and hang. if they are willing to spend nearly $20 on a card, they are either rich and warm their house with dollar bills. or they are art. when they buy them in bulk i assume its as a card. those i price for that use. but even on the site that sells both (not this site), i sell more phone covers than cards.

You can get e-cards by the truckload for free...

I assume that most people who buy single cards do so to frame a 5x7. Groupings of various images and different frames is very big now.
But I'm finding the same thing - very few card sales, in fact, the last card sales I had were back in July - 4 individual cards to the same buyer.

Thinking about this a little more based on the comments in his thread so far, I would not be opposed to doing e-cards through FAA or whatever sister site, for free if on the card was a text that said "brought to you by John Rizzuto Photography ". If my name and website was on it they could send them out to free to whomever they want.

Hard to fame a phone case. ;-)

Concentrate on the higher end. Card and phone case sales are nice for pocket change but nothing to devout too much attention too.

I guess I probably shouldn't say that, my last bunch of sales were all cards. Still a thrill to sell one even it the $$ isn't much.

$1000+ for pocket change is fine with me. Buys tickets for a week in Europe. Better than me having to spend $1500 or more out of my own pocket.
