Why Your Holiday Cards Are Still Stuck in the 90s (And How to Bring Them into the Digital Age)

Let’s face it: we’re no longer in a world where dial-up internet takes 15 minutes to connect or where neon scrunchies are the peak of fashion. Yet, somehow, some businesses are still stuck in the 90s when it comes to their holiday cards. Yes, we’re talking about those printed, glitter-dusted, pine-scented dinosaurs that land on desks once a year and usually go straight into a drawer or, dare we say it, the bin.

So, if your business is still sending physical holiday cards, we have just one question: why? You’ve moved on from VHS tapes and fax machines (we hope), so it’s time to ditch the old-school greetings and embrace the future of festive communication: digital Christmas cards.

Here’s why your holiday cards are stuck in the 90s — and how switching to e Christmas cards can save you time, money, and, yes, even a few trees.

The Environmental Impact: Trees Don’t Need to Be Your Holiday Sacrifice

Remember those stacks of holiday cards filling up your desk? Now imagine multiplying that across every business in the country. That’s a LOT of paper, and those festive cards are having an environmental impact that’s far from jolly.

Physical cards require paper, ink, energy for printing, and let’s not forget the carbon footprint of shipping them around the world. While you might get a warm, fuzzy feeling from sending a nice card, the environment is left feeling a little frosty.

On the other hand, holiday ecards are the eco-friendly alternative that says, “I care about you and the planet.” They save trees, reduce waste, and cut down on carbon emissions. Plus, with digital Christmas cards, there’s no glitter to vacuum up from your keyboard for weeks afterward. It’s a win-win for everyone!

Cost-Effectiveness: A Holiday Bonus for Your Budget

Let’s talk money for a second. Sending out physical holiday cards can get expensive. There’s the cost of printing, the postage (which, let’s be honest, isn’t getting any cheaper), and the time spent stuffing envelopes while wondering why you didn’t just hire an elf to do this for you.

Switching to e Christmas cards can help you reclaim not only your time but also your budget. No printing costs, no postage, no trips to the post office where you’re met with lines longer than Santa’s nice list. And because digital Christmas cards are sent with the click of a button, you can reach your entire client base — locally and globally — without a single stamp.
You’ll be able to take all that extra budget you’ve saved and put it toward something important…like an office holiday party with more than just a bowl of peanuts.

Convenience and Speed: Holiday Greetings in Real Time

Still addressing envelopes by hand? There’s a better way. While sending physical cards feels personal, it’s also labour-intensive, and let’s be real — people just don’t have time for that in the digital age.

With holiday ecards, you can craft, personalise, and send your festive greetings in minutes. You don’t have to worry about postal delays, late arrivals, or cards getting lost in the mail (looking at you, international shipping!). Your clients or employees will receive your message instantly — whether they’re across the street or on another continent.
It’s the equivalent of having Rudolph and the gang speed up your delivery times to warp speed. And who wouldn’t want that?

Modern Trends: No One Wants to Receive a Card That Looks Like It’s From 1994

Let’s take a moment to reflect on the style of holiday cards from back in the day. Classic, sure, but also a bit…well, dated. Today’s business world has embraced the digital revolution, and sending physical cards can make you look like you’re still using a flip phone.

Switching to digital holiday cards shows that your company is modern, forward-thinking, and on-trend. Plus, e Christmas cards can be customised with animations, interactive elements, and even personalised messages. Instead of sending out the same snowflake-stamped greeting as every other company, you can create something that stands out — and gets remembered.

Want to include a video message from your CEO in a Santa hat? Go for it! How about a link to a festive holiday playlist? Yes, please. The options are endless, and you’ll instantly set yourself apart from businesses still mailing out those tired reindeer prints.

Ready to Bring Your Holiday Cards into the Digital Age?

It’s time to stop living in the past and step into the future of holiday greetings. By switching to holiday eCards, you’ll save time, money, and trees — all while impressing your clients with your modern, eco-friendly approach.

So, before you start addressing another envelope or sealing yet another stamp, consider making the switch to digital Christmas cards this holiday season. Because, let’s face it, the only place the 90s should still live is in our nostalgia playlists — not your business’s holiday card strategy.
