Holiday ecards for accounting firms

Your clients hear from you at tax time. A holiday card with your firm's name on it is the message that has nothing to do with deadlines. These holiday ecards for accounting firms are short animated cards with your logo, colors and words, sent by email to clients, referral partners and your own staff, and you see the finished card before anyone pays for it.

Made for a practice

A holiday card that looks like your accounting firm

Type your firm's website address and the card takes your brand colors and finds your logo. Or drop in a logo file and the colors are read from it. Then every line of text is yours: the greeting, the thank-you, and whether it comes from the firm, the partners or the whole team.

The result is an accounting firm holiday card that plays like a short film, with music, full screen on a phone. It plays on its own web page, and the email that carries it to your clients is designed for you, with an animated or still graphic of the card. The demo on this page was set up for a CPA firm in navy and blue; press Make this yours and the studio opens the same design in those colors, ready for your own logo and words.

What to write in an accounting firm holiday card

Keep it warm, short and free of business. A good accounting firm holiday message to clients is two or three sentences: thanks for the year, a wish for the season, and who it is from. Save the organizer reminders and the engagement letters for January. Start from one of these and change any word.

To clients

"Thank you for a good year together. Season's greetings from all of us at [firm name]."

"Wishing you a peaceful holiday season and a prosperous new year."

From the partners

"With gratitude for your trust, from the partners and staff of [firm name]."

"It has been a privilege to work with you this year. Happy holidays from the partners of [firm name]."

To referral partners

"Thank you for the clients you trusted to us this year, and for your friendship. Warm wishes from [firm name]."

To your own staff

"Thank you for everything you gave this year. Rest well over the holidays; we are lucky to have you on the team."

Ecard or printed holiday card?

Many practices still mail a few printed accounting firm holiday cards to their closest clients. Digital holiday cards for accountants reach everyone else on the list, in the same week.

Who should get your firm's holiday card

  • Individual and business clients, including the ones you only hear from at filing time.
  • Referral partners: the attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other professionals who send clients your way.
  • Your own staff, before the longest stretch of the year begins.

A card holds one message, so many practices make two CPA holiday ecards: one for clients and referral partners, one for the team. Copy the first card, change the words, and both live in the same account, each with its own page and its own count of people who watched.

Choosing an inclusive greeting

Most firms serve clients of many faiths and none, so the greeting is usually Season's Greetings, Happy Holidays or best wishes for the new year. Every word on the card is yours to type, so the same design carries whichever greeting fits your client list.

The last message of the year before tax season

In a few weeks your clients will hear from you about organizers, documents and deadlines, and they will keep hearing from you until spring. A holiday card is the one message in that stretch that asks nothing of them. It thanks them for the year, wishes them well, and puts a friendly face on the firm before the busy months begin.

That is what year-end client appreciation looks like for an accounting practice: not a gift basket for a few, but a card from the people they trust with their numbers, sent to everyone. If there is something clients should know before January, put it in an ending link, such as a year-end checklist or how to book a planning meeting, and keep the card itself about the season.

Approved by the partners before you pay

A firm's holiday card usually needs a yes from a managing partner, a marketing partner or whoever looks after the firm's brand. Press Send for approval and pass on the link. It shows the real, finished card with a watermark, has nothing to download, and needs no account, so a partner can watch it on a phone between year-end meetings.

When the card is approved, answer one question at checkout and the clean card is made in about one to two minutes. Nothing is bought until someone says yes.

Your client list stays in your hands

Client lists are confidential, and you decide who sees yours. There are two ways to send, at the same price.

  • Send it yourself. We design the email; you send it from Outlook, Mailchimp, Constant Contact or another provider. Your client list never leaves your own system.
  • We send it. Import your list and every address is checked before the send. Unsubscribes are handled for you, permanently, and you get a report afterward.

Either way, the email is designed and tested to render as widely as possible, and the card's own page sets no cookies on your clients and is kept out of search engines. How each way works · Privacy.

When to send a holiday card to clients

The first two weeks of December are the usual window: after Thanksgiving, and before clients leave for the holidays and your own year-end work peaks. Send it midweek, in working hours, when it lands in an office inbox rather than a long weekend. If we send it, you can schedule it ahead of time and take it off your list.

Closing between the holidays? Add your office hours or your client portal as one of the card's ending links, so clients know when the firm is back and where to upload documents in the meantime.

Already sent a Thanksgiving card?

Many firms thank clients at Thanksgiving and send a season's greeting in December. The two do different jobs: the first is a thank-you before the rush, the second is a wish for the new year. If you send both, keep the words different, and consider sending the December card to the team as well.

One card for clients, another for your team

January to April is the longest stretch of your firm's year, and your staff know it is coming. A short holiday card to your own people, before it begins, says something a year-end memo cannot.

Copy your client card, change the greeting and the message, and send it to the team. Both cards live in the same account. Looking for something else for the season? See all the holiday designs.
