Honor Cards
Increase Referrals and Repeat
Business!
Honor Cards make great business tools, as Elias
Papadopoulos of RE/MAX Unlimited attests:
“Over
the years, I have given many different things to my clients at closings
but I have now found the perfect gift. I make a donation to Children's
Miracle Network at each and every transaction. For $25 or more, you can
have an Honor Card sent to your clients letting them know that a
donation has been made in their name to their local Children's Miracle
Network hospital! I let my clients know up front that it is one of the
things that I will do for them if they use my services. Try it. It will
put a smile on your client's face and it will help millions.”
Please note that Honor Cards
are not available in Canada.

Portt.
