    family celebrates holidays with group holiday ecard

    When the holiday season comes around and the days get shorter, many of us can barely find the time or energy to get to the gym, let alone compile a family card and have it printed and mailed. Even when we do get around to making a card or newsletter, at least one family member always seems to be too busy to participate. Looks like the annual family card won’t be annual for much longer… And to think, you were so excited for this opportunity to shamelessly brag about your kids!

    Not so fast. When organizing the family for a card seems impossible, check out Kudoboard.  Using Kudoboard to create a unique holiday eCard allows everyone to contribute to your holiday card whenever is most convenient to them. Simply invite your family to contribute to the online group ecard, and let them share life updates on their own time. After all, who doesn’t love to gloat a little about themselves, especially when Kudoboard makes it this easy.

    Once everyone’s finished uploading his or her contributions, all you need to do is email the card link to your friends and relatives. Yup, that’s right—you’re saving paper and time.

    How To Create A Unique Holiday eCard

    Creating a group holiday eCard is easy with Kudoboard. Before we get started into how to make one, here are two tips that will make the process easier.

    1. Start Early. Yes, eCards are convenient, but if you have a large family contributing to the card, you’ll have to give them time to add to it. Have a delivery date specified so everyone knows when it needs to be done.
    2. Gather everyone’s emails. You won’t need people’s addresses or stamps, but the eCard does have to go somewhere. Make sure you have all the recipients’ emails before you start to avoid frustration later!

    Now, let’s get into how to create the card. To get started with Kudoboard, go to their site and click “create a kudoboard.” From there, follow the prompts and edit your card as you see fit. Next, start creating your card! Add a picture and a blurb about what you did over the year. To add contributors, click “add contributors” at the top of the board. Enter in your family’s information or share a direct link. Now, family members can add pictures or videos summing up their year. To send the card, click “schedule delivery” and enter in everyone’s emails and set a delivery date. Next, hit send and relish in relief that you don’t have to lick any envelopes or buy stamps.

    That’s it! Creating a unique holiday eCard is easier than ever. Thanks for letting Kudoboard help with your eCard needs.
