For chambers of commerce and business associations

Holiday ecards for chambers of commerce

Your members are the local business community. A holiday card from the chamber thanks them for the year, and it can end with a link to your next event. These holiday ecards for chambers of commerce are short animated cards with your logo, colors and words, sent by email to members, sponsors, community partners and your board, and you see the finished card before you pay.

Made for a chamber

A holiday card that looks like your chamber

Type your chamber'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 year-end message, and whether it comes from the president, the board, the staff and ambassadors, or the whole chamber.

The result is a chamber holiday ecard that plays like a short film, with your logo, your colors, your words and music, full screen on a phone. On a Photo & Text design you can add your own photos: your downtown, a ribbon cutting, the annual dinner. It plays on its own web page, and the email that carries it to your members is designed for you, with an animated or still graphic of the card. The demo on this page was set up for a chamber of commerce; press Make this yours and the studio opens it, ready for your own logo.

What to write in a holiday message from the chamber

The holiday message from the chamber president that members remember is short: thanks for their support of local business, a wish for the season, and who it is from. The year in review and the event list can live behind the card's ending links. Start from one of these and change any word.

To members

"Thank you for supporting local business this year. Season's greetings from [chamber name]."

"From all of us at [chamber name]: thank you for a great year."

To sponsors and partners

"To our members and sponsors: happy holidays and a prosperous new year."

"Thank you for investing in our business community this year. Warm wishes for the holidays from [chamber name]."

From the president

"On behalf of our staff, board and ambassadors, thank you for your membership, your partnership and your support. Happy holidays."

"It has been a year of new businesses, new members and new friends. Season's greetings, and thank you."

To the board and ambassadors

"Thank you for every ribbon you cut and every new member you welcomed this year. Happy holidays."

Ecard or printed card from the chamber?

Some chambers still mail a printed chamber of commerce holiday card to the board and top sponsors. A holiday ecard reaches every member business on the list, at one price, and ends with a link to what is next.

Who should get your chamber's holiday card

  • Members: every business on the roster, from the corner shop to the largest employer in town.
  • Sponsors of your events, programs and awards.
  • Community partners: the city, the schools, the economic development office and the nonprofits you work with.
  • Your board, your ambassadors and your staff.

A card holds one message, so many chambers make two: one from the president to every member business, and one that thanks sponsors and partners. Copy the first card, change the words, and both live in the same account.

Choosing an inclusive greeting

A chamber speaks for the whole business community, so the greeting is usually Season's Greetings, Happy Holidays or best wishes for a prosperous new year. Every word on the card is yours to type, so the same design carries whichever greeting your chamber uses. Some chambers send a thank-you at Thanksgiving as well.

End the card with your next event

When the card finishes, it shows a row of links you choose. For a chamber, the first one is usually the events calendar: the January mixer, the annual dinner, the awards night. Add your member directory, your shop-local page and your social accounts beside it, so a member who just watched your card is one click from what is next.

You can also put the card on your own website, so visitors and members who missed the email can watch it there.

Approved by your board before you pay

A card in the chamber's name usually needs a yes from the president, the board chair or the executive committee. 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 board members who run their own businesses can watch it on a phone between customers.

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 you say yes.

When to send a chamber holiday ecard

Many member businesses are at their busiest in December, so early in the month is the usual window: after Thanksgiving and Small Business Saturday, before the last shopping weeks. Send it midweek, in working hours, when owners are at their desks. If we send it, you can schedule it ahead of time.

Your member list stays in your hands

There are two ways to send, at the same price.

  • Send it yourself. We design the email; you send it from Mailchimp, Constant Contact, Outlook or another provider. Your member 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 members and is kept out of search engines. How each way works · Privacy.
