Wanted: the best holiday cards
To honor particularly beautiful, exceptional, and appropriate holiday cards, Swiss Post is presenting the «Nicolas – Prix Carte de Noël» for the second time.
All Swiss companies and organizations can register their festive and New Year cards until December 24, 2014. A personal thank you at the end of the year makes every customer happy. Festive and New Year's cards are an individual sign of appreciation and - provided they stand out and leave a lasting impression - strengthen customer loyalty. Swiss Post and evoq communications AG are therefore rewarding particularly creative festive cards with the "Nicolas - Prix Carte de Noël". All Swiss companies and organizations that produced an individual, printed card on the theme of Christmas or the turn of the year in 2014 and sent it by post are eligible to apply free of charge.
The Nicolas Award is presented in three categories: "The Most Beautiful," "The Most Extraordinary," and "The Most Appropriate. The five-member jury looks at factors such as the surprise effect, the combination of colors, typography and text, and the material chosen. The winners can look forward to a Nicolas Award - a trophy in the form of a snow globe to shake.
The idea of the "Nicolas - Prix Carte de Noël" is obviously well received: For last year's prize, 131 companies and organizations from all sectors - from small painting businesses to large corporations - applied. The closing date for this year's competition is December 24, 2014 (postmark). The winners will be notified in January 2015.

The "Prix Carte de Noël" was launched seven years ago by the Evoq agency and relaunched in 2013 together with Swiss Post (Werbwoche.ch reported). Last year, SBB secured the prize and won an Epiphany cake (Werbewoche.ch reported).
