Artist Rubina Quadri is building a greeting card business from home, with Little Rock helping her serve Canadian customers without rigid order minimums. Our flexible quantities, consistent print quality, shipping, and dropshipping options let her fulfill smaller orders herself and send larger orders directly to customers while keeping the same quality across every order.

"For greeting cards within Canada, there's really a dearth of flexible, affordable options, especially for someone in my position. I have mobility issues, so picking up prints from a local shop like Staples isn't an option for me the way it is for other small business owners. I need something affordable and flexible that can ship directly to me or to my customers. Gelato uses Duplium in Canada, but they require a 10-card minimum of one design. I don't want printing limits or requirements to change my business model, which is to encourage customers to make larger purchases but to have the freedom to choose the designs they want.

I have a Canada Post drop box right in my lobby. For smaller orders up to 20mm thick (about 20 cards) that I can ship through the mail slot, I pre-order small batches (30+) from you to pack up and self-fulfill from home. For larger orders that are too big for the slot, I can drop ship directly through you. Either way, my customers receive the same quality card and I don't have to worry about consistency.

I really feel like you guys understand and support small businesses. Even if you didn't know the exact mechanics of how a business like mine would operate, what you've set up is well thought out."
