A lot of companies have offers and guarantees that promise the 'lowest price' or 'complete satisfaction'. Sometimes I feel like I've heard statements like this so often that I don't even pay attention to them anymore. I'm naturally skeptical about statements like these because usually there is a catch hidden in the fine-print.
The cool thing about working with Sharper™ is that I know our satisfaction guarantee and price match promise do not have any fine print. They were implemented to make it as easy as possible for the customer to not only feel confident when the purchase our products but also get the best price.
Follow the links below and see for yourself that Sharper™ stands behind it's promises when dealing with
business greeting cards,
appointment reminder postcards,
plastic supply bags,
custom business cards and every other product in our line-up!
Help your patients or clients get ready for the season by sending
chiropractic cards and
massage therapy postcards. Summer is the perfect time to remind them about the importance of massage and chiropractic care.
It's hard to believe that it's back. (I know, it's only March but it will be June before you know it!) Didn't we just shovel the driveway a week ago? I think most parents are like I am. It's such a busy time of year, kids are out of school, there's yard work to do, golf, hiking and getting in the car and traveling to the lake. Traveling is probably worse for me than any summer activities I can think of. Long hours in the car on on a plane leaves me even stiffer than after that last round of golf. According to the American Chiropractic Association's Council on Occupational Health, prolonged sitting can be hard on your body, restrict proper blood flow and build up of pressure in the blood vessels of your lower legs.
The
Baby Blues® license by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott say it so well. The daily trials of family life are presented in a humorous way, to remind us of the importance of taking care of our backs so that we can keep up to the entire family! Plus, making Baby Blues your cards of choice will add a little humor and a light-hearted spin to your summer marketing mix. All these Baby Blues cards are designed exclusively for Sharper.

Business cards are an important tool for any chiropractic office. Much like the impression people form about others they meet, your business card is often a strong influencer over the impression people form about your practice. Some important questions to ask yourself about your current business cards are:
- Do your chiropractic business cards accurately reflect the tone of your practice?
- What impression do the cards you're using give to your patients?
- When is the last time you refreshed the look of your chiropractic business cards?
Many practices invest a lot of money into their chiropractic marketing efforts. They may spend large amounts of money to ensure they are located in top-notch neighborhoods, attend expensive seminars and/or advertise using direct mail, print, or multimedia. Using a poor or out of date business card can undermine these expensive and carefully executed efforts.
Go ahead and pull out your
business card right now and think about the impression patients will get when they hold your card in their hands. Now it's time to ask yourself....
Is it time to update your

For pet care professionals, it's important to welcome a new pet owner on their first visit, to immediately start building that relationship and ensure that they don't hesitate to return again and again. This is important whether you're a vet, a groomer, or have another pet care professional. Sharper has a lot of great products for
pet grooming marketing and
veterinary marketing. We carry
veterinary calendars, veterinary magnets, veterinary tote bags, and come great
veterinary promotional items.A great first step in building an impression of a trusted pet care professional is to welcome your pet owner with a card. After they receive a new kitten or puppy, the perfect way to share in their happiness is with one of the new
"congratulations" pet care greeting cards:
People today see their pets as members of the family. How often have you heard the terms "furry children" or "pet parents"? These cards show that you understand the importance of that relationship to new pet owners.
Or, if they have had their pet for a few years and are simply new clients to your practice or business, how about another token of welcome? Giving them something they can take home that has your personalized information on it is worth its weight in gold. If they are constantly reminded of your name and contact information, there's no doubt they'll call you first when their beloved pet needs some attention. Not only because your information is close at hand, but because of the goodwill you'll engender by giving them a useful gift.
sharper leashes are wonderful promotional giveaways, and
sharper scoops are well-used and cost-effective gifts. Imagine your name being at-hand every time a pet owner feeds their pet or
scoops its litter! I would be absolutely thrilled with our vet if they gave us one of these after we brought our pet in:
Spring is on its way! At least, that is what the weather channel tells me. And while I am thankful (I am not a big fan of winter), I am also dreading it a little. With the change in seasons and all the spring showers, it' not spring flowers that i get... it' s migraines.
Fortunately, I have learned the value of regular chiropractic care. It has been a life saver! A timely adjustment to my occipital region can prevent a migraine from starting, or even stop one in its tracks! Combine that with that electro-impulse thing and some regular massage therapy and I am good to go!
Unfortunately though, my chiropractor's clinic has faced some tough times recently. Between the economic slow down and the deregulation of chiropractic care, business is not as busy as it once was. And his clinic isn't the only one. After deregulation, many people just stopped going for chiro care and even massage therapy entirely. They have only seen the "cost" of regular care in terms of money, they haven't yet understood what the "cost" is in terms of health. Health is much more than the absence of illness, pain, injury and stress. It is the presence of joy, relaxation, and energy!
For the patient, spring is a great time to address all those small aches and pains from the cold winter months. For the chiropractor, spring is the perfect time to send out
reactivation cards and
reminders to patients you haven't seen in a while. Focusing your
message on the real cost of missed appointments and the benefits of regular treatment are great ways to bring back those patients who have forgotten the real value of regular chiropractic care.
Sharper has a great selection of
chiropractic cards,
massage therapy postcards,
massage therapy/chiropractic appointment cards,
business cards, and
magnets.
Take a little time with your spring cleaning this year to remind your patients (past and present, old and new) just how good they'll feel after a spring tune-up!
I know I will...
I love designing products with puppies and kittens in them. Sometime this year I will be getting a new puppy myself, and I am really looking forward to it -- they are just so cute! It's no wonder that so many of Sharper's products
featuring kittens and puppies are so popular. One of these is the
Dream Big series, which started as one of our many
personalized magnet calendars and is now developing into more products, including
postcards and
reusable tote bags:
This year there will be a 2011 personalized magnet calendar as well as a tri-fold calendar in this popular series! 2011 calendars will be available to order later this spring, and there will be quite a few other calendars with adorable animals in them. What better for your patients or clients to have up in their homes and work and enjoy all year than a
calendar? Even in this digital age, people still love to receive personalized calendars from their favorite service providers, for at-a-glance reference.
It has happened to many of us.
You make an appointment, you schedule it into your calendar and when the day comes you miss the appointment because something has come up. There are a lot of excuses as to why I have missed appointments. I hate to even admit I have, as I know it causes a lot of inconvenience and loss of revenue for my doctor, dentist, optometrist etc.
However, if these offices consistently sent me appointment reminder postcards it would give me one more reason to remember how important my health is and how important it is that I don't miss my appointment. Doctors offices, Dental offices, a variety of offices have to keep patients coming in for their regular appointments. A missed appointment can mean an instant loss of revenue to the practice. What is the best way to remind your patients that they have an appointment?
Why not try Sharper™'s Appointment Reminder postcards?
We carry appointment reminder cards for a lot of different markets.
We offer chiropractic appointment cards, dental appointment cards, veterinary appointment cards and much more. If you don't fit into any of the specific markets we offer appointment postcards for you can try out our seasonal appointment reminder postcards.
We also offer Message Highlighting. If there is one important aspect of your reminder card that you want the patient to notice, try highlighting that portion of the message so it stands out! It is only $25.00 regardless of the quantity of cards you would like to have highlighted.
Reminding patients of upcoming appointments or that you haven't seen them in awhile gives them that gentle push to get it marked into their calendars.
For fun, you might want to check out this blog giving insight into common reasons appointments get missed and the cures for these reasons. Eventually you can hone in on what type of patients you have and whether they fall into these categories.
The solution is easy...order some appointment reminder postcards.
What we display for sample personalization in our catalogs and on our website is only a beginning -- you can do much more, and there's no need to stick to the format we've presented. On all of our sample product, personalization usually looks like this:
John A. Smith
General Practice
110 Pacific Avenue, Suite 850
San Francisco, CA 94111-1900
(800) 561-6677
Here are some ideas on things you can do to engage your patients or clients and make your personalization even more effective and unique to your brand:
• Include your company logo
A one-time fee of only $45 will allow you to use your logo on products you order from Sharper.
• Keep it simple
Including only business name, phone number, and website address will allow you to make those larger - for anything other than business cards and magnetic business cards or return mailing addresses, of course. But you probably don't need to have your full mailing address on your reusable tote bags!
• Add a little personal message, such as "Compliments of" on a giveaway like personalized toothbrushes or personalized wall calendars.
• Choose to promote a special offer or service
to entice patients or clients into booking new appointments.
The only limit is your imagination! And I guess the space available for personalization. All right, so there are some limits. But within those design requirements, there is a lot you still can do to be effective and really make your practice marketing materials stand out!

Are you serious? Already? But it’s only March…
Yep, that’s the way things work in the world of designing promotional calendars. You've only just bid farewell to last year, hung up your favorite design for this year, and you’re already gearing up for next year's designs. These days, whenever I write a check I have to look twice to make sure I didn't put the wrong year on it.
Designing calendars at
Sharper™ can be a bit of an escape from our usual design work. Along with designing calendars specific to each of our markets (Dental, Contemporary Health, Veterinary, etc) we get to design for more general audiences. Not only do we want our creations to be functional and add visual charm to an office or work space, we try to put ourselves in your shoes and find out what inspires, what motivates and what lets you dream… So when I start my design journey, I ask myself the question "Where would I like to go today?"
I know from my own experiences that in the midst of a hectic day, sometimes the only break I get is the 30-second daydream where I get to relax on a sun-soaked beach of the South Pacific with a delicious tropical tonic in hand, or be engulfed in the calm of a rain forest, listening to the banter of the aviary locals with the gentle rumble of a waterfall in the distance. Wherever it is, chances are you may want to go there too.
Here are some of my current favorite designs from our team:
The great thing about
Sharper™ Calendars is that we offer so many sizes! You can choose between
Trifold Calendars,
Business Promotional Calendars,
Bookmark Calendars,
Magnet Calendars or even
Wall Calendars, and they all can be personalized with your business or practice information.
If you're looking for more market-specific calendars check out our dental
calendars,
chiropractic,
vision & hearing or
veterinary calendars.
So inspire your clients, motivate them and help them dream with a calendar from
Sharper™ as you remind them of your services all year long.
Losing a pet is a very difficult time. Anyone who has gone through this experience can tell you that they've lost much more than a pet....they've lost a dear friend. As a Veterinarian, you are confronted with pet loss and grieving pet owners. Helping them through this time is an important and delicate process. Everyone grieves differently but one thing that remains constant is the need for support.
A great way to support pet owners who have recently lost a pet is to send personalized
pet sympathy cards. These cards can help to acknowledge that you care in this difficult time. Choose from a wide selection of
cat sympathy cards, or
dog sympathy cards to express your heartfelt concern - in a personal way.
Here are some popular pet sympathy card designs that Veterinarians are using:
