Might be me but not being bothered to write your name and having a stamp instead is  imo pretty impersonal . Bit like getting a Christmas card from the estate agents

i can't be arsed writing them all out any more.a stamp is far quicker!

What does it say?

Same as last year.

I only send postcards.

Dazmond probably sent all his customers one from the Maldives 

I did actually!...all 329 of them!some have already thanked me for a fantastic postcard!

So, you went to the Maldives to have a nice relaxing time with your hot Mrs and you spent most of it checking replies on a window cleaning forum and writing 329 postcards? The mind boggles.

There are certain Customers who will give you a Card with your Tip in .
They deserve a card back .    Especially if they live on there own    Hubby or Mrs passed away.      They will be overjoyed you have remembered them .   and drop them a card off.
Once you start doing this they will be expecting it every year     haha.
Its just a way of showing your appreciation  for being a loyal paying customer

Hello Daz

The way the price of stamps is going you’ll be out of pocket

I have a sticker the size of a 50p
I stick it on the back of the customers bill envelope

Sticker has a picture of Father Christmas
Reads merry Christmas from dcs window cleaning

If there in I wish them merry Xmas
Last year was a record £600

I think 🤔 I worked out £2 for every customer average last year was over £3

Only find 20-30% of customers tip
And it’s time sensitive to about 3 weeks before Xmas mainly

As have had same customers tip 1 year and not the next only thing different was how close to Xmas their clean was

I’m not expecting much this year 😀
Cost of living

I use an ink stamp not actual stamps from the post office mate!(to stamp inside the Xmas cards).😄😄

I use small square Xmas  cards.costs me around £15 for 200.i post them when I clean their windows on the last clean before Xmas.(I start next week)

Just be lucky if you keep the majority of you’re work this year though eh lol,I wouldn’t be expecting any tips at all although when it is anything it’s wine etc don’t you know people with money don’t tip cash it’s a gesture 🤣🤣.

[lee_dewing]

You star 🤩Daz

I thought my way was pretty good

Hats off to you

Where do you get the mini Xmas cards 👍

[Jay Le Huray]

We don't do xmas cards for customers but suffice to say we do get a few from them including the usual chocolates, wine  and biscuits etc

[jo5hm4n]

I used to give out Xmas cards to all of our customers, but then i realised that it appears only about 10% actually seem to care, and we spend alot of money on the xmas cards as they are fully company branded.

I decided last year to just give out xmas cards to our favourite customers, and the money i saved i gave to our staff as a christmas bonus which was a decent chunk of money.  That seemed to work out well!

[robbo333]

I don't give out Christmas cards because:
1. I can't be bothered and
2. I think the customer then feels obliged to give you a card (which is an unnecessary burden).
However, booze and gifts are wholeheartedly accepted.
Every year I tell my customers, that the money I would have spent sending out cards for them and my other customers, is now sent to charity.
Every year our family donates about £95 ish for 'Crisis at Christmas'.

You’re on the wrong forum obviously.
