Considering selling
Power Love Cards™?
It's a smart move!
Below is some basic information for you!
There is nothing like these cards! Read just two or three of them to become a believer. The best retailers see that marketing is slightly different. Since these cards are longer than traditional cards, customers should be drawn to the overview descriptions of the cards, usually on the display headers, rather than thinking they can just pick up a random card to browse it.
"Letters are longer." As customers (and retailers) remember that many of these are closer to letters than to cards, they can be approached differently. The headers are for browsing. The overviews of the cards can quickly help customers target what they need. A customer can then pick up a card fitting their situation, or send someone else in for a card. The beautiful graphics and powerful words of these cards will bring people into your store. These cards are priced less than any other card that has such beautiful graphics both inside and out combined with powerful sentiments. Yet, whether for retail sales, or fund raising, your profit margin can be well worth carrying these cards. You will be proud to carry this line.

What kind of displays will I need?
Power Love Cards™ are unique in their strong graphics both inside and out. Our specially designed displays will show off each card. They are available in your first set-up order. These displays have headers which let the customer read brief descriptions of the card before selecting one to read. They also provide self contained storage for replenishment stock. When a slot is empty, it is a simple matter to remove the top and fill the display with stock you store inside. The plastic pockets on the displays make cleaning easy by providing an opening at the closed end to help sweep out dust and dirt for easy periodic cleaning.
Can I use my own displays?
Power Love Cards™ and Power Love Letters™ are unique. Unlike many "regular" greeting cards, a customer cannot simply look at the outside of a card and determine what the card is for! If you look at the outside of So Then Is My Love, a customer would have no clue that the card is about to propose marriage. Looking at the outside of the New Life card intentionally gives barely a hint that the girl giving it is about to announce she is pregnant. And because many of these are actually letters, significantly longer than traditional cards, they don't lend themselves to "browsing" in the same way as traditional cards. Our displays, and any alternate display you might wish to use, must draw attention to the overview descriptions of the cards. This allows a customer to know at a glance which card applies to their own situation. Over time, as your customers learn that you are carrying the line, people will come in looking for specific cards. But, as you begin, you must have a way for them to read a brief description of each card before actually picking up a card. Our displays headers are designed specifically for that. In addition, the more powerful graphics a fully displayed in these special displays.
What are the dimensions of the cards themselves?
Dimensions: Cards: 7⅞" by 51⁄4" closed; 7⅞" by 101⁄2" open. Envelopes: 8⅛" by 51⁄2". All dimensions are approximate and subject to change. Click here to see a sample of our displays.
What is my cost and what is the suggested retail for the cards?
Most cards retail for $5.95. Currently, we have one multi-page card that retails for $6.95. Your discount is based simply on the quantity you order. There is not a minimum order for each card, just for the total of the order. Therefore, you can order 200 of one card (as an example), 20 or another, 10 of two more, and 2 each of three more. The same quantity discount will apply to the entire order. Depending on quantity ordered, discounts range from 10% up to 45%. Call or ask your sales rep about additional periodic promotions for our retailers.
