NetFlix where will you be?

I have a little story that I would like to share with you about Netflix. 9 years ago no one had really heard of Netflix. Today Netflix sends out, on average, 1.9 MILLION movies a day & is considered a household name, mainly because of word of mouth. Netflix was started by two guys out of a garage with an idea to make movies more convenient & cheaper to rent. Its not that Blockbuster or all the other video rental companies have done anything wrong, its just that companies like Netflix have come along & found an easier & cheaper way to do it. Last year Netflix grossed over $800 million in revenue & had profits in excess of $100 million.

Now knowing what you know today about Netlix, if 9 years ago someone would have given you the opportunity to invest a few hundred dollars with Netflix & get paid every time you referred someone to the website and they rented a movie, would you have done it?

What Netflix is to the movie industry, Sendoutcards is to the greeting card industry. Sendoutcards was started by two guys out of a garage in 2004. They had an idea that people would actually go to their computers, choose a greeting card, type a message & hit send. Then SOC would actually print that card out, stuff it in an envelope, put the address on along with an actual postage stamp, and send it out for about a dollar a card. Well, one year & about $900,000 later they realized it worked! In 2006, Sendoutcards grossed about $10.5 million; in 2007 around $25 million; and last year, in 2008, almost $50 million. The best part is you can actually become part of this company & get paid when you send cards & help others do the same! Where will you be a year from now?

How "Green" is SendOutCards?

That's a good questions, and one we get asked quite often, especially since we're involved in the printing and paper industry. Let's take a look at a few company facts, and we'll let you answer that question yourself:

• SendOutCards uses recycled paper to print our cards and uses recycled paper for our envelopes. In fact, if you check the back of our greeting cards, you'll notice the recycling logo that we've been given permission to add to every card.

• Less than 1% of the paper we order becomes scraps, and as a company we not only recycle our paper but our aluminum cans as well.

• Our iGen Printers meet the RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive) created by the European Union. This RoHS standard is stricter than many US standards.

We may not have windmills generating our power or solar panels spread across our rooftop, but we're proud to say that SendOutCards is involved in helping the environment and doing our part to make a difference.

The Dying Wish of a 4-Year-Old Boy

A couple of weeks ago, SendOutCards distributor, Sharon Kruep, had the founder of a charity company join her organization. The company raises money for families of sick children. The founder of this company told Sharon about a family that were participating in their program from Missouri, the Thurmans.

The Thurmans have a four-year-old son named Colton who was recently told he has 6-12 months to live. The founder of this company asked Colton's mother what they can do for him, and her reply was that her son didn't want candy or toys, or even a trip to Disneyland; amazingly, he just wanted cards. It just so happened that Sharon was involved in the greeting card industry, and she passed this story our way.

Colton's desires to receive greetings cards over anything else shows us how important it is for us to continue our crusade and that we truly can change the world one card at at time. We want to help make this final wish come true for Colton and hope you'll not only take a moment to send a card or two yourself, but that you'll help everyone you know do the same. Here's the address where cards can be sent:

Colton Thurman
34 Blue Bird Lane Unit 4C
Lake Ozarks, MO 65049

Thanks for helping us spread some joy to this young boy during the remaining months of his life.
