Greetings

What Greetings is for

Greetings makes a festive card with your business name and logo on it: a picture you can download, or pass on as a link, when you want to wish your clients well on an occasion.

You choose the occasion and a layout, and KyDec draws the card. The sending is done by you, through WhatsApp, email or a social network. KyDec does not send cards to your clients or contacts for you.

Make a card

Open Greetings in the sidebar. The page is headed Generate Greetings: the card is on the left and changes as you type.

1. 1Choose the occasion under Select Greeting Type, for example Christmas, Eid Mubarak, Deepawali or Happy Holi. The words on the card and its colours change with it.
2. 2Pick a layout under Select Template. There are three: your name in a round badge, along the bottom of the card, or inside a frame.
3. 3Check Your Business Name. It is drawn on the card, and you can shorten it here without changing it anywhere else.
4. 4Write the Message to be sent with the greeting. It goes out with the card when you share it; it is not drawn on the picture.
5. 5Click Update to keep your choices, so the page opens the same way next time.

• When you change the occasion, the message changes to that occasion's greeting, unless you have already written your own.
• A long business name is set over two lines on the card, and anything beyond that is cut short.

Logo and branding

• The card carries your business logo. The × on the logo under Your Business Logo takes it off the card, and Put the logo back returns it.
• If your business has no logo yet, upload one under Profile, Edit Profile, and it appears here.
• Tick Remove KyDec branding to take the line "Made with KyDec" off the card.
• The occasions, the wording on the card and the colours are fixed. You cannot upload a design of your own, change the colours or add an occasion.

Download or share the card

1. 1Download Image saves the card to your device as a PNG picture named after the occasion. Attach it to an email or post it wherever you like.
2. 2Share saves the card online and opens a box with the ways to send it and the link to the card.

• The round buttons open Facebook, X, WhatsApp, LinkedIn or your email program in a new tab, with the link already filled in. You choose who receives it and send it from there.
• WhatsApp, X and email carry your message as well as the link. Facebook and LinkedIn take the link only.
• The link button copies the address of the card, which is also shown at the bottom of the box.
• On a phone, or any device with a share menu of its own, one more button opens that menu, which can send the picture itself.

The public link

The link opens a page that anyone can see without signing in.

• It shows the card, your message and your business name, with your logo if the card carries it.
• Your business name links to your business profile page. That link works only while the profile page is published.
• The page says it was made with KyDec and invites the visitor to make greetings of their own. Remove KyDec branding takes the line off the card, not off this page.
• When the link is pasted into a chat or a post, the card is shown as its preview picture.

Rules worth knowing

• KyDec keeps one card per business: your last occasion, layout, name and message. There is no list of past cards.
• Download Image and Share use the card as it is on screen, whether or not you clicked Update first. Share keeps your choices as well.
• To use Update or Share your role needs Create, edit and share templates and greetings under Marketing CRM, or Edit business profile.
