Recently, we posted how important print marketing can be for freelance web developers. Part of that print strategy is to include business thank you cards. When a web project is completed, a thank you card reminds the customer how much their business is appreciated. I truly believe all small businesses should be sending thank you cards to customers. To help get your creative juices flowing, here is an inspiration gallery of nice thank you cards tailored for business use.

Business Thank you Card

Sometimes, a customer appreciation card can work favorably. The above card exemplifies a great way to encourage users to order again. By providing a coupon code, the business is offering 10% off for the next order making it a more difficult decision to try a competing company.

Elegant business thank you cards

Another business thank you card I found on Etsy is this elegant corporate card by felicitypaper. This particular design is more geared for the holidays and can be purchased in batches of 25 or as an editable template for only $30. Purchasing the file then printing with a commercial online printer will probably be much cheaper, but felicitypaper does offer some very nice paper options.

Cute thank you card

By searching Pinterest, I found this cute little thank you card provided by Tiny Prints. I can envision this printed on a heavy matte card stock where a handwritten note is added to the back or inside area (depending whether your card is folded or not).

I like the design of this modern-looking stationery that can include a personalized note on the back.

A much brighter and darker concept, this corporate thank you card is found on GraohicRiver’s website under card templates. You may need to actually search for “thank you”  in order to locate, but this card has a super profile-based design inside.

Retro business thank you card

Although I’m a huge fan, GraphicRiver is somewhat weak in the business thank you card territory, but this retro card template might work well for some companies.

I kind of dig the above thank you card by cardsdirect.com – a company with a quite extensive inventory. It’s a typography nightmare, but the rainbow colored thank you catches my attention, and I imagine it would catch a second glance from customers.
