Launch Press Release

LOLCard Launches Online Physical Greeting Cards Service
LOLCard has launched an online greeting card service that allows users to customise greetings cards and have them posted first class for next day delivery.

Stockport UK, 6 December 2012- LOLCard has launched a brand new online greetings card service, uniquely integrated with Facebook, that allows customers to create personalised humorous greetings cards based on a selection of unique designs and to have them delivered by first class post, all at a budget price.

The founder of LOLCard Kieran Fitzsimons explained how the company is differentiated from other web based greeting card firms. Describing his cards as “Austerity busting” he went on to point out that “Our pricing of only £2.89 a card is simple and straightforward, just like the rest of our site, and all prices include first class delivery as standard”.

LOLCard also uses advanced technology which is integrated directly with Facebook and which makes creating a greeting card a very easy matter. “You can view all of your friends upcoming Birthdays, get one-click access to pictures of them plus lots more. Our technology aims to make it simpler and faster for our customers”.

All of the LOLCard designs are original and unique as well as being customisable. Users can add their personal text and upload photographs either from their computer or from Facebook to really personalise their cards. As Mr Fitzsimons pointed out, “We are a little different and hopefully a bit more fun! All our card designs are unique to LOLCard and we are always looking for graphic designers and keen students to send us more great designs”.

Editing the cards is very straightforward. As well as customising text and adding photographs, users can also move and resize images. The company also offers fast turnaround times and all cards ordered by 8.00 am are posted first class the same day.

With ambitious plans for growth, the company is currently seeking to raise further capital from investors in return for equity stakes. Explaining the company’s future plans, Mr Fitzsimons said “Investment will allow us to continue improving our site and proprietary software with even more innovative features, marketing our business, improving efficiency as we grow, and increasing our product range.

Customers looking for a pre-Christmas bargain will find that, to celebrate its launch, LOLCard is offering a 15% discount throughout December. The LOLCard service can be accessed through its website at http://www.lolcard.co.uk

Printing

We met with our printing partner today to ensure all the cards you order are perfect. They will be printed on a brilliant HP Indigo printer (the one our competitors all use) and the card has a fantastic glossy finish.

Other than that we have been doing a lot of testing to make sure whatever browser you use, you won't have any nasty errors, even with Internet Explorer!
