Hallmark Cards survey
by Darry
(Vancouver, Canada)
"For the upcoming holiday season specifically, more than half of consumers are
interested in receiving humor cards from companies with which they do business."
Maybe it's the recession that's causing this shift, but finally more people seem willing to accept humor in business than in the past. I started Free Funny Business Email templates about 2 years ago and I'll bet very few have ever been used because people in business are too afraid to "offend" one of their clients by using something funny in what they see as the "serious" business of commerce.
Loosen up folks!
