Hello creators!<\/p>\n

Today we\u2019re talking about birthdays. Unsurprisingly, Birthday is our top-selling category. It’s an occasion that\u2019s always relevant (with lovely peaks in September & October, the most popular months for birthdays) so creating a strong birthday range is a great way to help ensure you\u2019re making consistent sales all year round.<\/p>\n

At thortful, we\u2019re firm believers that greetings cards should have an emotional impact<\/b>. In other words, we look for cards that evoke an emotional response when opened, be that a smile, a chuckle or blushing cheeks!<\/p>\n

But what is it that gives a design emotional impact? And what else makes a birthday best seller on thortful? In this article we\u2019ll explore the different ways our creators have seen success to help broaden your thinking when developing your birthday ranges.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

First up we have this cheeky design from Dandy Pug<\/a>, currently sitting in our birthday top-sellers. So what makes this a great thortful card?\u00a0Interestingly, we’ve seen real success with cards that refer to the sender themselves, not the recipient! It’s a clear reflection of their relationship: that cheeky sense of banter and gentle wit will make this the perfect card for many.<\/span><\/p>

Stylistically the design is simple, centred and easy to read, which helps it to stand out in the catalogue. It’s also easily adaptable for other recipients \u2013 Dandy Pug has cleverly evolved this design for ‘son’ and ‘sister’ too, to maximise their sales.<\/span><\/p>

And finally, if you’ve read our Consumer Insights report<\/a>, you’ll know that there’s a great opportunity for cards for parents (as well as partners). Our research tells us that these are the relationships our customers are willing to spend that little bit more on a special card for, which is worth bearing in mind when expanding your range!

Next up it’s this brilliant design from Wink Design<\/a>. We love this card for a few reasons. Firstly it’s not graphic; it’s just silly, playful humour making it naughty enough for our rude-card-loving customers but gentle enough to not be off-putting for our more conservative shoppers. It’s more than subtle enough for our recipients to not be embarrassed to have it on display.<\/p>\n

Secondly, the notion of “not growing up” is something a lot people identify with, and even take pride in. We know this card will evoke a smile and or a giggle. <\/p>\n

Finally, we love its carefully considered design. The colours are strong yet CMYK-friendly, and in terms of visual hierarchy this card is spot on \u2013 you process the design in the correct order, with the no YOU grow up<\/i> message just small enough to read after you’ve already smiled at the balloons’ cheeky composition.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Who said pretty doesn’t sell on thortful? Over the years this beautiful design by Louise tiler<\/a> has racked up an amazing amount of sales!\u00a0<\/p>

Referring back to our Consumer Insights report<\/a> once again, our research tells us that one of our biggest opportunities lies with classic and pretty designs. We know that as a brand we’re currently known best for our trendy pop culture cards, and while there’s still a place for these cards (after all, they’re the cards our existing customers know and love us for!) we’re keen to expand our range and reach new audiences to ensure we have the perfect card for everyone. So if pretty is your thing or something you’ve considered trying, now’s your time to shine!\u00a0<\/p>

What are the reasons behind this particular card’s success, you ask? From a design perspective this card is pretty, vibrant with a level of finesse that gives it a professional finish. The colour palette just works, it’s neatly centred, the font is readable \u2013 we’d expect nothing less from Louise Tiler! However we also think its generic caption plays a huge part. This card is\u00a0<\/span>beautiful, designed well enough to be a card you’d be proud to give a close relative, whist generic enough that you could buy it for anyone, appealing to a wide audience. It’s a card you can appreciate and guarantees to be given pride of place on the mantelpiece.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Since its upload to thortful back in August last year, this funny card by Designs by Andy<\/a> has found itself a firm place in our top-sellers, selling thousands of times every month! Let’s look at what makes this the perfect kind of ‘rude’ card.<\/span><\/p>

There’s a time and a place for profanity, and this was it. The use of expletives in some way levels up the humour of what is actually a bit of a dad joke. If you’re considering uploading a sweary design, ask yourself: does the use of an expletive elevate your design and add emphasis? Or is it simply unnecessary? It’s important to remember that rude cards aren’t for everyone, so consider whether adding expletives to your designs is limiting your appeal and decreasing your sales potential.<\/span><\/p>

There’s a touch of whimsy to this design which we feels softens the blow of the ‘f-bomb’. The bold font works perfectly with the strong lines of the illustration. It looks hand drawn yet professional, with its quirkiness lending itself to the random, silly humour of the caption. And once again it’s very clear and easy to read. Customer eyes will naturally be drawn to it when scrolling, helping its discovery in our competitive birthday collection.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Air fryers. Someone in our office once actually described them as ‘life changing’. And clearly our customers agree, with this birthday card by Becky Wood<\/a> being a best seller for a number of months. This card works because it’s chosen its niche, and a popular one at that; a <\/span>lot<\/b> of people will relate to this card. This playful humour that pokes fun at the recipient without being rude or crass is a perfect demonstration of the gentle humour our customers look for.
