eCards for Social Media

By Sarah Miller 5/16/2012

Why would you want to post an eCard in social media? A social media post with an image generates more interest in the form of comments and click throughs than just text alone. Also, there may be people you only know through social media channels and you don’t have their email address.

Whatever the reason, many people have been posting eCards on Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+ and more by using our Direct Link feature. And we've now made it even easier for you to post your eCards in the top 3 social media channels.

Here’s how it works:

Create an eCard and send it to yourself. Make sure it looks the way you want it to because you can’t edit it once you’ve sent it.

In the navigation, go to eCards > Sent eCards. Next to each eCard is a button to the right for ‘Share eCard.’

Click the button for share on Facebook, LinkedIn or Google+. Compose your message and post.

When you are finished, click the ‘back to Sent Cards’ button and you can continue to use CorpNote.

If you want to post eCards in social media channels other than Facebook, LinkedIn or Google+, view our direct link tutorial. For more detailed instructions and pictures, go to our social media eCards tutorial.

Here are some popular types of eCards that people post in social media and we encourage you to think of your own reasons.

Company news and announcements

Employee appreciation and recognition

So... go out there and be social!
