Thortful.com is an online greetings card marketplace that champions small independent designers. thortful currently has over 2,000 amazing creators who produce ever-changing, evolving content for their greetings card catalogue which has over 30,000 cards.
During the pandemic thortful have been able to provide a ‘lifeline’ to their creative community who were able to supplement their incomes by selling their designs on thortful.
Mad Philomena, a designer based in Grantham explains that as her “main business is graphic design and props for weddings, in light of corona it looks like many weddings will not go ahead and overnight my source of income practically disappeared.”
She further explains how this “has coincided with my most successful month ever on thortful. It has been bittersweet for me to sell so many cards for mums because my own beautiful mum died last year.
“However, the money I have earned with you over the last 2 weeks with my Mother’s Day sales is literally going to save me for the next 6 weeks. In some ways it feels like she has had a hand in the success.”
This continues by saying “the platform you are all providing is so important and is no doubt going to be a saviour for many creators going forward during this uncertain time. Thank you so much for being my lifeline.”
