Check it out! We've just posted a new video to the Vervante Video Vault introducing you to our new Perforated Pages & Cards. If you're thinking about adding something fun and functional to your planners, journals, workbooks or similar products, performated pages or punch-out cards are a great idea! They can be added when you first have your entire product printed and assembled, or they can be added after the fact. These are also very popular for coloring books so you can cleanly remove pages that have been colored to share or display. We can perforate pages that can be added to planners, journals or products. You can also create perforated cards to add to products – and it’s great for easy tear-out pages in coloring books too! To watch the video, click HERE.

In a recent article we talked about a wide variety of items you can add to a package to enhance your customers’ experience. Today, we would like to focus on just one of those – Postcards. Creative postcards added to your product packages are guaranteed to get attention. They are simple, budget-friendly, and offer a surprising among of flexibility. As the first thing your customers will see when they open their packages, postcards add value and set the tone for each customers’ experience. And here’s the fun part… Your postcards can say anything you want. From a photo with a simple thank you, to a full-length mission statement, mantra, or take-action message, you can share a personal, intimate glimpse into you and your company in a way that can create instant connections. We’re not talking about those “wish you were here” travel postcards you see on vacation, but strategically created cards with branding and content that fits what you need. The key is to keep it simple, be real, and share something you know will resonate with your audience. Love this idea? We do! Here are a few ideas for how we’ve seen our customers get creative with postcards: Welcome Get Started Instructions Mission Statements Mantras or Affirmations Offers for Free Items Discount Codes Contact Information Invitations to “secret” pages on your site or forums for customers only Tickets to special events Postcards can be printed any size and shape, but generally range from playing card size to traditional postcard size. They are printed on heavy stock, can be on both sides, and in color or black & white. There’s a lot of power in these little cards. We’d love to help you harness it! If you’re interested in creating a batch of custom postcards to include with the packaging of your Vervante-created products, let us know at [email protected]. We can give you a free quote for creating the cards, and let you know how we can include them in all of your future mailings. You provide the design, we’ll get it to your customers, as easy as that.

No matter what type of product you have, there are always ways you can make it better. Even just the smallest little extra can be the key that inspires customers to hit the "buy" button and choose your product over the rest. We've rounded up a few ideas below for popular products that you can easily add for your products.  Card Decks Custom-designed card decks are fun, valuable, easy to use, and very memorable. A great way to uplevel your card deck presentation is by creating custom packaging. Many people provide bags for card decks that we can package them in, but did you know that we can also print custom-designed boxes and packaging for cards? Check out our expert guide, "How to Create Custom Printed Card Decks," on our Expert Guide page to learn more about card decks and the packaging options we offer.     Spiral or Wire-o Binding Journals, planners, coloring books, and workbooks are just a few examples of products that increase in both function and value when you have the ability to lay them flat. When it comes to spiral and wire-o binding, we have a lot of options. Plus, we can help you list and sell spiral-bound products on Amazon - something most other print-on-demand publishers don't offer. Spiral binding can be used for:  Soft Covers Poly Paper (water and tear resistant) Hard covers Laminated Soft Covers 2-Ply Board Covers We offer a range of colors for spiral and wire-o that have the power to deliver a high-impact first impression, as well as a reliable binding option for your customer. Your product, already packed with value, becomes awe-inspiring and unique with the simple addition of a color or metal option. Plastic spiral binding (50+ colors) Metal spiral (3+ colors) Metal wire-o (7 colors) For more information about using spiral or wire-o binding for books, journals, planners, coloring books and more, see "How to Sell Spiral Bound Products on Amazon" on our blog.   Custom Labels or Custom Printed Boxes Custom labels are an excellent way to maximize your brand, logo, or message. Take advantage of this valuable – and often overlooked – brand-boosting opportunity by creating a fullcolor label that features your unique design. Custom labels are a simple, yet vastly effective way of dressing your letter and packages for success, and making sure that your brand is the one that stands out. A custom printed box stands out from the crowd. Add your message to the outside and inside of the box and wow your customers! For more information about custom printed boxes, watch the video "Custom Printed Boxes" on our video vault page on the website.   Printed Newsletters Direct mail pieces such as newsletters are a great way to connect to your readers at a deeper, more emotional level. Sending them in a standard white or brown envelope is great, but sending them in a clear mailing envelope is a great way to let your newsletter shine through and wow your readers before they even start reading them.   Check out our expert guide, "The Secret Weapon to Successful Newsletters," on our Expert Guide page to learn more about creating, mailing and packaging printed newsletters.  For more product and packaging ideas that will help your products stand out from the crowd, be sure to watch the videos in our website Video Vault. We are also happy to provide free quotes and answer questions about any of the products mentioned here,

We're constantly amazed by the clever, unique, brilliant and beautiful books and products our customers create. Today we’d like to introduce you to Malane Shani, International Life/Relationship/Bereavement Coach and Holistic Practitioner and creator of the “Notes to Self” collection including the unique card deck we discuss here.   The story behind the “Notes to Self” card deck Q: What inspired you to create this unique card deck? A: The “Notes to Self” affirmation cards came as a natural companion to my first book, Notes to Self, which is based on some of the hardest life lessons I've faced and overcome by discovering the gifts in the midst of moving through these lessons. These cards expand the message of self-love, self-empowerment and self-awareness from the book by giving customers an easy way to remember, practice, and follow the guidance the affirmations provide. Q: What advice would you give for other aspiring authors and creatives? A: For others creating this product, I would suggest following the guidance inspiration provides. The affirmations themselves were channeled as I would wake up early to reflect and be in communion with my Spirit to write my book and create the affirmations. The card design went through several drafts, but we held the overall vision for the product in an elevated space until the final design came together effortlessly. Q: What do you love about the "Notes to Self" card deck? A: We love the impact that this card deck has on everyone who uses and interacts with it. The cards have accompanied us in private coaching sessions, workshops and conferences, and the reaction we get from customers is the same: appreciation and resonance. At events, we shuffle the cards and ask customers to pull one card and get their lesson for the day. The cards pulled are always right on time and right in alignment with where the customer is in their life. It's such a powerful experience that customers try to walk away with the card they pulled or take pictures of them--and the cards always sell out. About Malane and her “Notes to Self” affirmation cards Every life lesson, no matter how difficult, always brings us wisdom that we can carry throughout our lives and share with others. The Notes to Self Affirmation Cards are a reflection of Malane Shani's hard lessons and brilliant breakthroughs. Through her 52 years and experience as a Life/Relationship Coach, Spiritual Educator and Intuitive, Malane has used these affirmations to transform her life by changing unwanted thoughts and false beliefs. The affirmation cards give you insight as to what your lesson for the day is. They also give you an intentional affirmation and an affirmation for the week. Every day or week you just pull one card and it will share your lesson for the day/week. You can work with the affirmation to transform whatever challenges you may be having in your life around that particular lesson. There are 25 lessons, 25 intentional affirmations and 25 weekly affirmations, all originally channeled from Malane Shani and her life experiences. A couple of the lessons included in the deck are "the truth will really set you free" and "a siloed life is unnatural and a threat to joy." Do you feel comfortable with telling people how you feel? Do you pretend to be someone you're not to impress your friends or family? These are signs that you need to embrace your personal truth and let it set you free. Do you isolate yourself from others when you're going through a hard time? Do you feel lonely, even in a crowd of people? This could mean that your heart is calling out for a tribe or support system that really sees and loves you. Make the transition into a tribe and into your personal truth by speaking, writing and living these affirmations--and watch your life soar. Malane Shani invites you to create a new reality for your life built on freedom, your truth, a deep sense of self-love, self-awareness and wisdom with the Notes to Self Affirmation Cards. Use these affirmations along with your firm commitment to your own personal growth and development as tools to heal the past, release illusions, speak your truth and to move forward powerfully and with ease.

Making a memorable connection with your clients and customers is one of the keys to building long-term growth and profits. But finding new, interesting, and unique ways to make those connections can be hard. If you’re on board with this idea, and looking for something new to give your customers that “wow, I love what they are doing” feeling, how about creating a unique thank you card that you can include in all your packages? These are not your normal thank you cards. In fact, we also often call them “mission statement” or “mantra” cards because so many we’ve seen include these types of messages. They can be printed any size and shape, but generally range from playing card size to postcard size. They are printed on heavy stock, can be on both sides, and in color or black & white. And here’s the fun part… They can say anything you want. From a photo with a simple thank you, to a full-length mission statement, mantra, or take-action message, you can share a personal, intimate glimpse into you and your company in a way that can create instant connections. We’re impressed with other companies we’ve seen do this, excited about the possibilities, and just had to share this with you. If you’re not sure what to write, here’s some ideas we’ve seen and loved: Start with a simple thank-you for the purchase Share your mantra or mission statement Include quotes or inspirations that are meaningful to you, your company, or the product/service you provide Offer a free download, future discounts, or contact information to connect live Include a free sticker or bookmark Invite them to a “secret” page on your site or a forum for customers only Use a fun headshot or action photo, scenes from your work, or anything colorful that catches the eye while staying true to your brand The key is to keep it simple, be real, and share something you know will resonate with your audience. Like we said, there’s a lot of power in these little cards. We’d love to help you harness it! If you’re interested in creating a batch of fun thank-you cards to include with the packaging of your Vervante-created products, let us know at [email protected]. We can give you a free quote for creating the cards, and let you know how we can include them in all of your future mailings. You provide the design, we’ll get it to your customers, as easy as that.

Sending someone a hand-written card or letter is becoming a lost art. But it doesn’t have to be that way. We love getting cards in the mail – and we bet you do too. A card with a hand-written note in it makes those who receive it feel special. Like they are worth that bit of extra effort it takes, versus a quick text or email. Creating custom greeting cards that carry your brand or logo are a great way to show your clients, customers and colleagues that they are extra special to you. They are easy to create, easy to brand, and make a great positive impression at a very budget-friendly cost. We can help you create your own greeting cards – or let you add your logo/brand to ones we’ve already created. Like these gorgeous, glossy 5x7 folded greeting cards featuring 10 different designs and with the ability to add your logo to the back free of charge. Each card is designed in a variety of colors and patterns and features positive messages great for any occasion (to see all of our designs, just click on the image at left, or click HERE.) And each set of cards comes in a white box with a clear lid to show off what’s inside. If you love this idea and want to order your own, here's what you get: A set of 10 blank inside greeting cards, 10 white envelopes, packaged in a white stationary box with clear lid for $9.65 printed on demand. And we'll add your logo to the back of the cards at no charge. Cards like these are great for your own use, can be packaged with other products you currently sell, or used as gifts, prizes and awards that are guaranteed to make someone’s day. If you’ve got greeting cards on your mind now, and would like to talk to us about our ready-to-brand cards or creating ones of your very own, we’re here to help! Send us an email at [email protected] and we’ll be happy to send you a free quote and all the details to get your cards created. Here’s to products that make people smile!
