London, Monday 9th November: for immediate release
Save the planet (and donate to charity!)
• 3,000 printed cards = 1 tree. If everyone in Britain used Wishawish e-cards instead of the 1 billion printed Christmas cards expected to be sent, over 300,000 trees could be saved and 20,000 tonnes of waste could avoid heading for landfill.
• E-cards don’t only protect trees, they eliminate the need for gas-guzzling vans and planes, too.
• The cards are hosted on a server that’s 100% powered by renewable, carbon neutral, energy.
• Businesses can choose to communicate these benefits to customers in the card itself, making their commitment to sustainability more apparent.
• Businesses can add their own logo, colour and message to their e-card, as well as promoting the charity of their choice by displaying the charity’s URL and logo.
Save money
• For £300, up to 12,000 customers can download their customised e-card. At 2.5p per card, this is less than 15 times the price of a 1st class stamp.
• Accounting for the cost of design, printing, envelopes, stuffing envelopes and postage, Wishawish.com can save a company an estimated £3,000 on a run of 10,000 cards.
• Businesses can give the money that they are bound to save to the charity of their choice
