Holiday cards they'll open, not archive.
December inboxes are a wall of identical 'Season's Greetings' PDFs. A Mojo Greet holiday card opens as an animated moment with the recipient's own name — and if you attach an experience gift, it's one they choose themselves. Schedule the whole send in November; it arrives the morning you pick.
A corporate holiday card works when it's personal and punctual: each recipient's own name, a genuinely warm message, arriving on the day you chose — not a bcc blast. Mojo Greet sends up to 50 personalised holiday cards in one order, each with an optional experience gift from €25, paid in one payment with an invoice. Compose in November, schedule for December, done.

What to write in a corporate holiday card
Happy holidays, {first_name}! Working with you was one of the highlights of our year — here's to the next one.
Wishing you a warm, slow, wonderful holiday season. Thank you for everything this year.
From all of us: thank you for a great year, {first_name}. Enjoy the break — you've earned every day of it.
May your holidays be full of good food, good company, and zero urgent emails.
When should a corporate holiday card actually arrive?
Timing decides whether a holiday card is read or archived. Too early and it lands in the November noise before anyone is in the mood; too late and it arrives at an empty desk, or worse, on the first morning back in January when it reads as an afterthought.
The window that works for most teams is the stretch between mid-December and the last working day — after the end-of-quarter rush has cleared and before people start taking leave. If your recipients are clients rather than colleagues, aim earlier in that window: their offices empty sooner than yours, and a card that beats the rush is a card that gets a reply.
The practical answer is to stop treating this as a December task at all. Compose the send in November while there is calm to write something decent, schedule it for the exact morning you want, and let the date pass without you. Every card in a Mojo Greet bulk order goes out on the date you set.
What to say when you're writing to everyone
We measured all 1129 example messages in our own writing guides: the average runs 16.7 words and 87% land between 10 and 20 — about two short lines.
A holiday card has the hardest brief of any business card: it goes to many people, so it drifts toward saying nothing to anyone. The measured shape of a good card message is the corrective — short, direct, addressed to the reader. Our corpus found that 82% of good messages speak to the reader as "you" rather than describing them from a distance, and that is precisely the register a seasonal blast usually loses.
So write to one person and send it to fifty. "Thank you for a genuinely good year" addressed to {first_name} outperforms "Season's greetings from all of us at [Company]" every time, because the first is a sentence a human would say. If different groups need genuinely different messages — clients versus staff, say — run them as separate orders rather than flattening both into one message that fits neither.
Resist the two seasonal reflexes: a paragraph of company achievements (that is a newsletter, not a card) and religious specificity you can't be sure of. Warmth and thanks travel everywhere.
The data behind the advice
Our writing guidance isn't opinion — it comes from measuring our own corpus of hand-written card messages.
Holiday card questions
When should corporate holiday cards be sent?
Schedule them to arrive between mid and late December — before the office empties, after the inbox rush peaks. Send to clients earlier in that window than to your own team. With Mojo Greet you compose in November and pick the exact delivery date.
Can each card be personalised?
Yes — write the message once with {first_name} and every client or employee is greeted by name, on their own individual card.
Can we add a gift to the holiday card?
Yes — an experience gift from €25 per recipient, which they choose themselves and redeem in their own country. The price is never shown, and the gift never expires into January.
How is a bulk holiday send billed?
One payment for the whole order, with an invoice generated at checkout — VAT number and billing details included.
Should clients and employees get the same holiday card?
Send them as two orders. The thanks you owe a client is for the business and the working relationship; the thanks you owe your team is for the year they actually worked. One message stretched across both audiences ends up generic enough to serve neither.
