The Story Behind Sloppy Kiss Cards

 

 The Story Behind Sloppy Kiss Cards


Dating is a game of chance, with one major catch: what happens if you can't think of anything to say?

The Idea for Sloppy Kiss Cards came in 2013 when three friends were trying to come up with a creative way of expressing their feelings and thoughts. Josef, who was the most experienced at dating, would often ask "What do I say next? What do I say next?" which led his friends to start calling him "Sloppy Kiss" (a play on his name). They decided to start making cards to help him out on his next date. The three friends had no idea what they were going to do with the cards, but figured if they weren't used by Josef then maybe someone else could use them. The three friends had a garage sale and put together 40 packs of the first Sloppy Kiss Cards. They started advertising in a local shop, the Wild Buffalo Bar and Grill in St-Lambert, Quebec. They got great reaction from both men and women and ended up selling almost all of their stock.

The next year they continued making Sloppy Kiss Cards with original designs while expanding their advertising on social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram, and Tinder. Their hashtags soon started to trend and everything was riding high as they had sold out all of their cards.

In December 2017, Sloppy Kiss Cards went viral on social media and went viral on the internet with many news outlets such as "Esquire Magazine", "LA Times", "Cosmopolitan Magazine", "Lowlife Times" and many more picking up the story.

When Sloppy Kiss Cards started, The three friends only bought business cards for their advertisement to spread the word about their product. They did not even have an office where they could store all of the cards, so Josef would deliver his orders personally in a paper box by bike.

They then started getting orders from people who order cards by telephone. They also started getting orders via email, which they weren't as good at filling.

In early 2016, they all moved into their own office space out of necessity. They sell their cards online via their website, which they launched in January 2016 and was fully functional by June 20, 2016. They also have a retail store in downtown St-Lambert where the three founders sell their cards and other merchandise such as pins, hats and hoodies. 
Later that year The Card Factory was officially opened with help from two cousins of the founders who are both business owners in different industries. The founders have a good relationship with their cousin, who help them with ideas and business advice.

They continue to grow and expand their brand to other products such as clothing, prints, stickers and more.

Sloppy Kiss Cards has been featured in many television networks:


In 2017, Sloppy Kiss Cards received an award for Best New Business of the year by MTL Unlimited, a local business publication.
