Question

What occasion generates the most greeting card sales?

Answer

Birthdays lead everyday card sales by a wide margin, while the biggest seasonal peaks belong to the winter holidays.

  • Birthdays - about 50-55% of all non-holiday greeting card sales, the single largest occasion.
  • Christmas - the highest seasonal volume, with an estimated 1.6 billion cards sent.
  • Valentine's Day - roughly 145 million card exchanges each year.

If you are planning a card line, birthdays give you year-round demand while the holidays deliver concentrated spikes.
