OverviewThe next time you walk down the greeting card aisle at a grocery store, you might be seeing more than just paper. You could be seeing dollar bills. In a single year, more than seven billion greetings cards will be sent in the United States alone. Those cards generate more than $7.5 billion dollars in retail sales. About one-third of all greeting cards are written by freelance writers. However, few writers take the time to explore this potentially lucrative market, so the possibility of breaking into the card writing scene is encouraging.What It PaysA greeting card may not pay as much as a magazine or newspaper article, but most greeting card companies pay a fl at fee of $25 - $200 for a single card. The few companies that pay their writers royalties offer about 2 - 10% of the wholesale price. Expect to receive $35 - $50 per card. Once you establish yourself as a successful greeting card writer, you can command more money.Nuts and BoltsDon't be fooled with misconceptions about the greeting card industry. You may have already picked up a card and declared, "I could write this,” but greeting card writing is more diffi cult than it appears. A typical card runs between two and ten lines. But those few lines are a concise masterpiece. A writer should understand the importance of voice before submitting any work.Every greeting card must accomplish two main goals: grab the attention of the buyer in 1.5 seconds and perfectly convey the emotion of the sender. You must produce a strong me-to-you connection between the sender of the card and the receiver.If a direct, personal message is not included, the sender will never buy your card. If the wording is too vague and doesn't use enough personal pronouns, the receiver will not feel special. In either case, your card has failed in its purpose.Remember, there is one more person involved in this intimate exchange: you. Think of yourself as merely the silent messenger. Cards are not meant to display your phenomenal command of the English language or force your worldview on others. Just deliver the message intended, whether wishing for a quick recovery from an illness or sharing the joy of college graduation. Keep it simple, and keep yourself out of the picture as much as possible. If you have a strong control of voice, greeting card writing may be your niche.
