Printed Invitations for Theme Shows: Folding, Sealing, and Stamping Guide

[urbnk8]

When you send out the printed invites from CC (for theme shows), do you just fold them and seal with tape? And do you just put a regular stamp on them? That's what I've done for other things in the past but just wanted to make sure there wasn't another way for some reason.

Thanks!

I haven't used the ones from CC. But when I do my Wedding Shower invites, I print the invites on 24lb paper, fold, secure with tape, address and stamp with a regular stamp. That's it.

Thank you!

I put them in an envelope to mail them.......I want to make sure they get there.

FYI - I did this for Sept......instead of the postcards, and so no increase in sales, bookings, or attendance because of it, so I am back to the postcards!

They are so much nicer than the post cards. I put them in envelopes or my hosts do.

I was going to try that but wasn't sure if it would do anything. Especially since the price of stamps has gone up so much. Maybe I will make some postcards specific to theme shows & keep using them.

Stacy, I have been using the Theme Show postcards for the first time this season. I really like them! (maybe because for the first time I really like the themes! ) I handwrite the guest name and address, and make labels. On the Info label - The first line is a "Title" for my show. For the Real Food Real Fast show it looks like this:

The Incredible 30 Minute Chicken Show!
Host: Kim Kowalski
When: Thursday, Oct 18 @ 7p
Place: 123 Main St, Jenison, MI
RSVP: 616.555.1212​

Then I also make a return address label that (for the 30 Min chicken) says:

"Don't Miss The Party!"
You have to see this to believe it!​

and put this label right below the Info Label. On the Theme Show invites, there is more room for doing this sort of thing - not as much verbage as the regular postcards.

Just a thought, but if you use a flyer, you could put it in a colorful envelope with confetti...more eye catching and less likely to get pitched in the trash as junk mail.
